New features in Ninox 3.14 release

Enhanced PDF export options

With Ninox 3.14, you can now choose the specific PDF format for your exported documents. This update supports dynamic print layouts and PDF standards like PDF/A-3, thanks to integration with Carbone, making it easy to create compatible files for applications such as e-invoicing.

For tasks needing specific formats, such as PDF/A for e-invoices, choose your preferred format with a single click. Your document is instantly ready for archiving, sending, or further processing. This flexibility saves time and opens up new options for working with specialized PDF formats.

📌 Please note that this feature exclusively for public and private cloud and is not available for on-premises.

New data integration tools: parseCSV function

Ninox’s new scripting functions simplify importing data from CSV files directly into your Ninox tables. You can also retrieve and display data from JSON scripts across all modules, enhancing data management and making it easier to import and customize large datasets.

Additionally, newly enabled JSON values in dynamic fields allow you to create customized data fields tailored to your needs.

Ninox 3.11: More control, efficiency, and flexibility

Starting with Release 3.11, Ninox offers new interesting features and improvements that improve the user experience and simplify compliance-oriented data management:

  • New features for extended data management - creatable if and deletable if: With the new “creatable if” and “deletable if” functions, you can define conditions under which records can be created or deleted. This allows for more precise control and reduces the risk of accidental deletions. Adjust the conditions for creating and deleting records to tailor your workflow to meet your organization's specific needs. Reduce security concerns by controlling who can create and delete data. This gives you better control over the flow of data, access, and processes within your organization. On another page in our blog, you can find out More about the “creatable if” and “deletable if” function: Read about advanced data management in ninox.
  • Uploading multiple files (attachments): We know how important it is to efficiently upload files to your database. With Ninox 3.11, you can now easily upload multiple files at once. This feature is particularly valuable for employees who are on the go and work with mobile devices, whether during on-site visits or when working offline without an Internet connection.
  • New colors for better visibility: The color display in Ninox settings has been adjusted to improve visibility for users with poor eyesight. Some layout changes have been made to improve readability. We've also updated the colors in the chart widgets.
  • Automated database reconnection: With the modularity introduced in Ninox 3.10, users were able to create relationships between databases and link tables from different databases within a workspace. This eliminated the need to manually replicate data across multiple databases when information is shared with different parts of the organization. However, users had to manually reconnect their databases when they switched workspaces. With Ninox 3.11, you can create connections between modules in different workspaces, and existing relationships between databases are automatically restored when you switch workspaces. This provides you with a reliable, automated solution that makes manual intervention superfluous and saves considerable time and effort. This makes it easier to use data across databases and workspaces.

With Ninox 3.11, you get advanced data management features that give you greater control and efficiency. You can minimize security risks, increase data management flexibility, and ensure precise control over the creation and deletion of records. These innovations are a significant step towards an even better user experience and a more efficient workflow

Ninox 3.10: Pages, modularity and more

  • Modularity: It allows you to establish relationships between two different databases and link tables from different databases in a single workspace
  • Mail hook: Use the mailhook to receive emails directly to your special Ninox mailbox. It's now easier to manage these emails in Ninox and connect them to contacts and workflows.

📌 To make the most of these features, you should use a Upgrade to the Enterprise plan Consider Ninox.
