15.1.2 Release at a Glance
Advanced Solutions International, Inc. is proud to announce this enhancement update to iMIS 15.1. This release adds to the iMIS 15 release, meaning that you can install it easily at any site already using iMIS 15. You can also upgrade directly from iMIS 10.6.
New website template added, for iParts
A new flexible-width template, 1600, is available for the websites you create in WCM. This fluid template helps you in placing iParts because the page elements flow to adapt to the available space on the site visitor's screen.
Communities enhancements: roles and moderation
Communities now supports greater collaboration and control with the creation of two new roles, Moderator and Wiki Author. Moderators help with monitoring forum subscriptions and approving postings to moderated forums. Wiki authors extend the group of writers who collaborate to develop specific wikis (collections of articles) that are set to be read-only for community subscribers.
Accrual dues support for Public views
iMIS now lets you accept payment for accrual dues in the web-based views. Members can pay their dues along with their event registrations and other purchases. When members pay their accrual dues in Public or Web views, iMIS updates the WEB batch and creates new transaction records. To use this feature, you enable the Accept Payments on the Web option on the Billing Products window, so that billing products appear on the web.
Installation enhancements
- Multi-instance Installation Utility — This release rolls out a utility that helps you quickly install additional instances of iMIS. This makes it easy, for example, to generate production copies from test installations. The utility automates such things as creating new instances of the publishing, workflow, and indexing services and updating configuration files for the second instance.
- Silent installation support — The iMIS Installer can now run in silent mode to simplify installing or upgrading iMIS Desktop clients on staff workstations after an update has been applied to your iMIS application server.
- Database Upgrader resumes — When upgrading a 15.1.1 database, if the upgrade fails at any step, you can now fix the iMIS database and resume the database upgrade at the start of the step that failed. (Releases prior to 15.1.1 still require restarting the upgrade with a restored and fixed database.)
PCI Compliance options
iMIS now offers PCI Compliance support options that make it easier for your organization to implement a strategy to meet PCI Compliance requirements. Enabling the PCI feature in AR/Cash setup enforces the mode that you select: Maintain audit log when cardholder information is accessed or Do not retain cardholder information. The first option lets you keep supporting deferred payment processing; it logs an audit trail each time someone accesses cardholder information that you're storing in iMIS. The second option prevents storage of cardholder information in the database completely, and it includes a database utility to purge all existing cardholder information as well.
Gateway support
- Gateway reference numbers displayed throughout iMIS
- Native SafePay (QSI) support for web transactions
- Gateway naming standardized throughout iMIS
- Developer's guide for custom gateways on iMIS Community
Additional enhancements
- iMIS supports IE 8 by automatically applying compatibility mode
- Purging contact records using DB Repair
- Automatic propagation of uploaded images to all servers
- Company search options in web views
- Non-authorizing credit card fields are disabled
