Dear Backstage Users,

In this summer, we enhanced the Log feature in Backstage to let you know more about what the system has done in the background. Building on top of this we are also introducing "Automation" which will unlock more possibilities that Backstage can do for you.

For many clients, we have setup background tasks like importing attendance data or sending notification email. But these tasks are run at the background and you have little knowledge on the result.

We are now migrating them as "Automation" and their result will be recorded in "Task Log", you will then be well informed of issue like connection error and fix them before too long.

We are also exploring more uses of "Automation" to make your work easier. For now there is already client enjoying automated posting of payroll batches and being notified. Other tasks like automatic report generation and delivery are also in process. We look forward to your comments on what else we can do for you.

Some of you have already received system update. Feel free to contact us to arrange system update if you need to.

Please read on for features update recently. Enjoy your day!
