Starting with the release of Symphony v25.1, you can easily add and manage all licenses in the Administration homepage. Navigate to the Licensing work area to add or edit new licenses as needed. To access and manage previously installed licenses, see Apply a License Key.

We've added a number of user interface updates to simplify the use of Symphony for you. These include changes to the interface to allow you to engage with your environment more easily, improved navigation with accessibility updates, and more.

• You can now select to present your data in table visuals as wrapped from the table context menu. Select the more menu icon next to the heading name, and select Wrap Column or Reset Column Wrapping as needed.

• Expanded information and settings are now available in the Properties window when you create or edit components in Managed Dashboards and Reports. Options are grouped in collections of settings you can navigate and use to update and change the properties of an object.

• This Properties window has been redesigned to improve usability, provide more consistent organization, and be more approachable to new users. The locations of some properties have changed: for example, the Layout and Text tabs are now categories under Design, and the Actions category is now a tab. To change an element's display name, double-click it directly at the top of the window. If you have difficulty finding a setting, the related documentation articles contain updated guidance. Categories are collapsed by default, however you can use their existing double-click or right-click shortcut options.

• Users who navigate Symphony using keyboards with or without a screen reader have more metadata available for various toolbars, buttons, and menus.

• Some expansion icons that were formerly arrows are now more [...] icons. We have also added more information for users in information boxes, as well as included more tooltips that allow users to understand items in context of their project.

• The Hidden and Locked properties are now dedicated icon buttons next to the title in the Properties window for objects in the Managed Dashboards and Reports module.

• Information boxes have been added in various locations of the Properties window to help explain and navigate between different properties for objects in the Managed Dashboards and Reports module.

• Hover over a table's header, row and cell style properties to see the corresponding area of the table highlighted in a tooltip for objects in the Managed Dashboards and Reports module.

When you create a dashboard in Managed Dashboards and Reports, you can optionally add a specific domain URL recipients can use to navigate to the dashboard. If you do not add a specific URL, the default URL is sent.

You can now enable scroll options for Visual Data Discovery visuals that previously did not include axis ordrill down options. Depending on the visual type, the Data Zoom options may include horizontal, vertical, or both scroll options. This includes:

• Line Trend: Attribute Value Charts and Multiple Metric Charts

• Bar Charts

• Box Plot

• Combo Chart

• Donut

• Floating Bubbles

• Heat Map

• Pie

• Waterfall

Enable or disable as needed in the Data Zoom section of the Settings sidebar menu. Changes to the ruler used in a visual will reset the scroll settings, and the minimum and maximums are not saved.

We've added support for the cast function in OData API filters. You can now cast numeric fields (integers, longs, doubles, decimals) to strings in filter queries, enabling string-based operations such as eq, startswith, and contains.

Tenant administrators can now select and change the author for a dashboard in the Dashboard Library. The new author must have appropriate permissions for the dashboard to be able to access the dashboard.

We've expanded Self Service Reports with several features you can use to customize reports more effectively by creating group based banded reports.

• Add column fields to the grouped header

• Include grouped details in the details section

• Apply aggregates and conditional formatting

• Include report headers and footers

• Insert images in your report header

• Export grouped data reports in PDF format

Group reports are structured to repeat for each unique record in the groups you've added to the report. You can include up to 8 columns in the group header and up to 15 columns in the group detail section of the report.

You can now schedule reports to run and be sent by email at frequencies that meed your needs.

Accessibility improvements have been added throughout the Symphony user interface. These include updates to access for keyboard and screen reader users on the logon page, main menu, toolbar, and various dialogs available in view mode in the Managed Dashboards and Reports module.

Importing and publishing project files has been updated to better handle renaming of items in certain cases.

When you convert custom SQL statements in a data to a stored procedure for visuals that also rely on custom metrics, Symphony appropriately updates the underlying connector capabilities to support AGGREGATION, FILTERING, JOINING, PAGING_AND_SORTING, and PROJECTION.
