Changes to existing fields, such as updates to default values, were not reflected.<\/p>\n<p class=\"intro-text\">With this enhancement, we have improved the sync process so that any change made to a form, whether it\u2019s adding a new field or modifying an existing one, is now fully synced into Shift Log and Explorer. Clicking the refresh icon in the entry table editor now retrieves the latest form configuration from Server Management, ensuring Explorer and Shift Log reflects the most current setup.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Picture1-1.png\" rel=\"lightbox-0\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-71253\" src=\"https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Picture1-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"421\" height=\"234\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Picture1-1.png 421w, https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Picture1-1-150x83.png 150w, https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Picture1-1-48x27.png 48w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 421px) 100vw, 421px\" \/> \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Picture2-1.png\" rel=\"lightbox-1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-71254\" src=\"https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Picture2-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"306\" height=\"233\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Picture2-1.png 299w, https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Picture2-1-150x114.png 150w, https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Picture2-1-48x37.png 48w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 306px) 100vw, 306px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 class=\"page-subheading\">Italic Styling for Draft Entries in Related Entry Table<\/h2>\n<p class=\"intro-text\">Italic styling has been applied to draft entries displayed in the Related Entries table.<\/p>\n<p class=\"intro-text\">When users add and save a case as a draft, it now appears in italics under related cases for the same entity name, making draft entries visually distinct and easier to identify.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Picture3-1.png\" rel=\"lightbox-2\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-71255\" src=\"https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Picture3-1-600x327.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"327\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Picture3-1-600x327.png 600w, https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Picture3-1-150x82.png 150w, https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Picture3-1-48x26.png 48w, https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Picture3-1.png 725w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"left-bar-blue\">Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/oihelp.corporate.ifs.com\/help\/p2-server\/entries\/fields\/related-entries\/\">Related Entries<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 class=\"page-subheading\">Comment Categories in Display Information of Workbooks<\/h2>\n<p class=\"intro-text\">The comments feature in Display Information for Workbooks now supports selecting a category when adding a comment.
