With every release, we recommend a set of Vault configuration changes to improve general usability. These are known as template revisions.
In addition to the configuration described on this page, the following template configuration updates are recommended for all Vaults deployed before the respective release to improve Inbox Item usability. For example, Vaults deployed after 22R1 will have the Create New Inbox Item Field and User Action configuration by default.
(22R1) Create a New Inbox Item Field and User Action
The Promote to Case action is displayed twice for some cases that include a Study Case with a non-study Company Product or a Study with Unspecified Products.
Create a new Inbox Item field and update user actions for the Inbox Item lifecycle.
