Features
Generic Improvements
Data modelling changes
Task hierarchy and record relationship changes: We have enhanced the way Tasks behave in ReadiNow to provide greater flexibility and improved configuration for application developers.
- The task object which is the base type for all task types has been marked abstract, a sub class called base user task is now the main class to be used to extend the task object.
- All tasks will now have a record relationship.
These changes streamline task management by:
- Rationalising the relationship between a task and its related record as well as the reverse relationship from one record to multiple tasks, allowing for simpler more efficient logic to be built.
- Separating the base task from any extending objects, therefore separating app development work from system objects, allowing better maintenance of apps and system objects.

Nova Feature Enhancements
Page builder Enhancements
Highlighting form fields with missing schema sources: form fields with missing schema sources are now highlighted on the canvas and marked with a status icon, making it easy to spot and fix broken fields. The same indicators appear in the Data Adapter, so you can identify and clean up invalid fields from either view. This update helps you quickly troubleshoot, maintain healthy forms, and ensure all fields remain connected to valid data sources.
Charts & Images – Aspect Ratio Improvements: The aspect ratio property for charts and images has been updated with options ordered by size for easier selection. The aspect ratio property has also been moved to the Layout section for quicker access and a more intuitive workflow.
Page filters Improvements
- Group filters for lookups and relationships fields: Group filters can now be used on lookup and relationship fields enabling grouping of these fields as part of the filter component and filtering other components on the page. This enhancement works seamlessly with the existing group filtering logic.
A new Object dropdown selector has been added and will be displayed only when you select Lookup / Relationship as data type. Selecting any object in this dropdown will display all records.
Data table improvements
Filter usability update: The ‘in between’ operator is now placed at the top of the Date/Time filter menu, reflecting its high frequency of use by end users.
UI Feature Enhancements
Charts Legend - Visual improvements
- The legend order for bar, column, and stacked area charts now matches the visual order in the chart for clearer interpretation.
- Rounded corners on bar and column charts have been refined for a cleaner appearance.
- The active state for chart binding has also been improved, making it more obvious which segment is selected when filtering other components.

Form panel
We are introducing Form Panel, a new way to view and edit records while browsing records using the data table and without leaving the page. This feature enables users to efficiently edit records while browsing through data table rows, streamlining navigation and reducing context switching. The Form Panel feature entered beta phase in Release 2.205 and is available to customers participating in the feedback program. To trial the Form panel, please submit a support ticket to request access.
Key Highlights
- Summary & preview experience — view and edit a record’s details side-by-side with the Data Table.
- Extending Data table functionality — supported in both Relationship Data Tables component and Data Table component.
- Configurable by App Developers — Form Panel is not enabled by default. Developers can nominate and configure specific Data Tables to use this feature.
