Simplified spreadsheet for creating non-customisable bulk content
One of the fastest methods of creating content in the platform is by importing a content plan. This allows you to prepare a spreadsheet of the content requirements, entering the placements, dates and content customisation options. To simplify this even further, we have introduced a new version of the spreadsheet for users creating content that isn't customisable, such as content that requires a re-size only or is being localised through a translation form.
When you select the master templates you want to customise in your bulk content plan, you will now see a "Customisable" label against some of the templates. If you select these templates, you will continue to generate a bulk content spreadsheet which has a separate tab for each template, allowing you to easily add the customisations required.
If you select templates that aren't marked as customisable, you will generate a new version of the spreadsheet with a single tab. This spreadsheet will allow you to select the template your require in column A, continuing to add the placement, format, language and required dates for your content.

Updated re-assign method
We've updated how users can be re-assigned tasks to make it easier. The updated method makes it easier to search for the user you want to re-assign the task to and ensure that only users with access to the campaign can be searched.

Font overrides
We've introduced a simple method to use different fonts for specific languages when localising your campaigns. Font overrides allow you to specify the original font and map it to a replacement font for a specific campaign and language. For more information on how to set-up font overrides, visit our support article.
Artwork stage filter
We've introduced a new artwork stage filter on the Media Status page. This allows more fine grained filtering to quickly find adaptations at individual stages in the approval process.
Generate JPG files to a target file size
We've extended our static output modules to create JPG's to the max file size specified for a digital format. This means that you can quickly output files to spec.
Only show placements for the selected client on a media plan
To simplify creating media plans, we now filter the available placements by client as well as country. This means that you will see a reduced list of available placements, specific to the ad you are creating.

Refreshed navigation and site style
We've updated the navigation to make it quicker and easier to navigate to the pages you use the most. All pages are now available in the left hand navigation, instead of being accessed as a tab on the dashboard.
The "Create" button in the top of the site allows you to quickly create a project or plan.
In system admin, you can now access all of the pages in 1 click.

Translation form filtering
We've introduced filtering on the Campaign - Translation Forms page. This will allow you to more easily manage translation forms by languages and translation form. You can filter by status, language and translation form.
Media Status filtering
We've updated the functionality of the due date filter on the Media Status tab. The filter options will now only show jobs with a due date falling within the selected number of days. Any older jobs will be shown in the overdue filters.

Translation form approval
We've enhanced our translation approval process. Translation forms that require approval can now be uploaded into the platform. Navigate to:
- Navigate to System Admin > Copy > Translation forms
- Click on "Upload translation form"
- Give the form a name and select the campaign and media type the assets that will use it belong to
- Select from the approval options:
- Pre-approved - translations don't require approval
- Client approval - translations will be sent to a Local Market Manager for approval. The Local Market Manager will be selected based on the language
- Internal and client approval - translations will be sent to an Account Manager and then a Local Market Manager for approval
- Upload the translation form
The translation form view will show you each language, its status and who it is assigned to. Reviewers can be re-assigned from here. They can also be nudged to remind them of the review task.

Edit translations during approval process
Approvers are now able to edit the translated copy they are reviewing, dramatically speeding up the time it takes to prepare approved translations for campaigns. If a reviewer would like to make changes to a translation, they can simply click the pencil icon underneath the field and make their changes. Once they have approved all the fields, the amended copy will be available for use in the campaign.
