2. Explore and Get Familiar: Take some time to explore the new interface and get accustomed to the enhanced navigation and features.
3. Customize Your Home Screen: Discover the Tile Library to add or remove tiles to your home screen that complement your workflow.

If you have any questions or need assistance with the new home screen, please do not hesitate to reach out to your designated Customer Success Manager.

We are excited to share that additional tiles for Project Managers and Lab will be launching in the New Year! Be on the look out for more detail about these role-specific tiles.

Here is a sneak peek of what's coming:

• Reports: Quickly understand the status of all reports and access project information in one consolidated view.
• Field Testing: Stay up-to-date with field testing results and promptly respond to items that need immediate attention.

The offline form entry capability in the Field module now works as expected when navigating directly to subsections with the new sitewide navigation.
