BrassRing Home Page - Tasks Tab - Task Type Retention
Previously, the selection of the Task Type HR Status Aging in the Tasks tab, is reverted to Approvals each time the user logged out of BrassRing. This reversion is an inconvenience for the BrassRing users that do not have Approval privileges as they must select the HR Status Aging every time they log in.
Starting this release, when users select HR Status Aging as the Task type, the selection is retained. When the users log back into BrassRing, their selection is not reverted to Approvals.
The selection of HR Status ageing is retained for return users.

RTC internal reference # 128386.

Communications - New Blurb Condition
Starting this release, BrassRing users have a new condition option when they create or edit blurbs. The existing conditional blurbs have "equal to" (=) as a condition. Starting this release, in addition to equals to, a new condition Not equal to (<>) or Not is available to select. By default, "equal to" (=) is selected and users can change it using the drop-down option to "Not equal to".

Talent Gateway - Social Media Share
It was observed that the new Social Media share button that is added in the Job description pages of responsive Talent Gateways is not consistent. It is inconsistent in size with the share buttons of Face book, LinkedIn, and Twitter. To provide better candidate experience, the size of this button is optimized to ensure consistency with the other social media share buttons.
Social Media share button re-sized to make it consistent.

Talent Gateways - Sign In Bar Width Enhancement
