SMS Reminders for Students

This update lets important reminders reach students by SMS, and brings a batch of portal improvements and fixes.

What's new

SMS Reminders

Students can now receive reminders by SMS as well as email, so important information is more likely to be seen. This covers class reminders, certificate-renewal reminders and late AVETMISS submission reminders. Each student can control which of these they receive by SMS from their notification preferences, so they only get the messages that matter to them.

Improvements

  • Notification banners in the admin portal can now be dismissed for a period of time. Once cleared, they stay hidden for up to 24 hours, so announcements and prompts no longer linger after you've seen them.

  • Enrolment and lead lists in the Session Details view can now be sorted by student USI, student name and status, without reloading the page.

  • Trainer class attendee lists now show up to 50 people per page by default, so trainers are far less likely to miss attendees sitting on a second page.

  • The in-account Change Password screen now includes a Forgot your password? link, so anyone who can't recall their current password can trigger a reset email without leaving the app.

  • When an organisation updates a company's details, the matching billing customer is now updated too, so future invoices are issued with the current company information.

  • The class capacity bar's minimum and maximum markers have been redesigned as clearer threshold ticks, colour-coded to show whether a quota is met by confirmed enrolments or only once pending enrolments convert.

Bug fixes

  • Credit notes for corporate bookings now reach the right recipient. Previously these emails could silently fail to send to corporate customers; they're now delivered to the correct billing contact, and corporate credit note PDF downloads are fixed too.

  • The "Student Payments Disabled" banner now appears only when payments are genuinely disabled, instead of showing for every organisation.

  • Class reminder SMS messages now show the correct time in the session's local Australian timezone, rather than appearing hours early or on the wrong day.
