Highlights of the Fall Release are updates on the Reporting Module. We ported the views for the Pivoit Table, the grouped and grouped with summary view and also the Treeview to the SpiceUI. This is an ongoing effort where we are bringing the best in class reporting functionality to the lightning experience with SpiceCRM.   As we believe that integrated analytics is a key necessity this is an important step on our roadmap. 

We continued to develop additional functionality for Marketing adding a basic event management. This allows planning and tracking of events. Add partzners that play specific roles int eh event. Track invitations and registration. Add a self service registration to your website.

Alsop the good old "close&new" button in activities made it back to the new UI. For some time we did think there would be a life without it. We accept we have been wrong. So back it is. Allowing an easy way to close one activity and add a new one. But it would not be SpiceCRM if we did not make it better. So we added flexibility to customize it and to also let the user choose which activity to add next. Allowing an easy closing of for example a call and scheduling a meeting.

Asides that there are further features worth mentioning like an easy way to change the users timezone, enhancements in the Calendar and also with the fts engine. We also added a bulk indexer that will allow fast indexing with the elastic search. And many more …
