Two fixes just applied for money field validation: Entering something like "540." will now be accepted as "$540.00". This used to be accepted in previous RPM versions and that was causing some problems with this version when existing old values were being considered invalid. More importantly, we fixed a flaw that prevented some existing invalid fields from being highlighted as invalid. Combine

We'll be uploading a fix tonight: Percent type custom field values will save correctly. Keyboard shorcuts h and p will be ignored in select drop downs so you can search for those letters. Two decimal place money fields will align right in views.

We've uploaded a fix to the servers that solves 3 merged view problems: You can now add yes/no merged columns Yes/no filters no longer cause an error You can now add processes and columns without entering a name first

RPM 5.4 Shine has been deployed to the RESOLVE, CRM, and Demo deployments. The merged process views feature wasn't ready yet so it's currently disabled. All deployments, including AGENT, will get Shine on June 9th.

Microsoft has released IE8 and all known issues that it had with RPM in the beta have been resolved. Some quick testing shows it does indeed seem faster than IE7.

Just to be clear, RPM users do not need to install the .NET Framework. You can install whatever versions of the framework you may need for other things, but it has no impact on using RPM.

RPM on Windows 7 shouldn't be any different than on IE8 on Vista or any other browser.

The RPM 5.2 update on Dec. 17 introduced a bug that caused agent users to not always receive email notifications for process management. We fixed that on Monday morning, Dec 29th. Sorry for the inconvenience. Fortunately, RPM use was way down over Christmas, as expected.

Google has released their Chrome browser out of beta. I've moved it to the official "Full support" browser list for RPM. I personally like Chrome a lot and use it often for RPM. It's Windows only for now, but they say Mac and Linux versions are coming. For now Firefox 3 is still my primary browser.
