Léhűtő, the craft beer bar in the 7th district
- Version: Snow Owl v3.5
- Start date: 23 June 2014
- End date: 1 August 2014
- Code name:
Lehütö. The name has two meanings: A Léhűtő is a person who cools down liquid. The word originates from a job in breweries where some people worked as assistants who stirred the hot beer so that it gets cool faster. Nowadays it's used to describe a person who shuns work and does nothing.
Collaborative authoring
The new wizard makes it easy to specify parameters for your task queries. The query parameters are in accordance with the task list.
The query form consists of three tabs: Basic parameters, Assignees, and Miscellaneous parameters.
On the tab with
Basic parameters, you need to specify a name for your query and select the repository.
-
Query name: Enter a name for your query, which will be used as the folder name in the task list.

The following parameters can be specified

Enhancement on review tab
The columns in the task editor now display the user name of each reviewer. In a scenario with two reviewers, they can be distinguished more easily.
Task editor displaying two reviewers
In scenarios with dual authors and dual reviewers the task status can only be set to Verified if all cases were reviewed (accepted or denied). If a case is unresolved, because the reviewer or the adjudicator did not enter a decision, the workflow can not be pushed forward.
If all cases were rejected, the promotion is also disabled.
