New features delivered in 26.08

The following features and enhancements were included as part of 26.08.

Usability enhancements

  • In the Import workspace, redundant action buttons have been removed from the data table to streamline the import workflow (CRM-4221). The Submit for Matching and Complete Import actions are now only available in the workspace banner with updated button styling and clearer step-by-step instructions.

  • You can now use the Customize workspace to activate or deactivate custom field types and to configure the End user readonly setting (CRM-5530). This aligns the Customize workspace capabilities with options previously available only in the NexJ Admin Console.

Accessibility enhancements

As part of NexJ’s ongoing commitment to digital accessibility and WCAG 2.0/2.1 Level A and AA compliance, this release introduces comprehensive updates to enhance navigation, control announcements, and form interactions for users relying on screen readers (supported for NVDA) (CRM-6547).

Tree controls used to display hierarchies now support full keyboard navigation and interactions (CRM-3790). You can move between tree nodes using the Up and Down arrow keys, expand a collapsed node using the Right Arrow key, collapse an expanded node using the Left Arrow key, select an entity using the Space key, and open or focus the entity view using the Enter key.

Entity preview enhancements

The preview drawer for contacts, companies, and households has been redesigned to provide a more comprehensive, interactive overview of entity details (CRM-5942).

The enhanced contact previews feature an updated banner with status summary, nickname ("Goes by"), Do Not Contact indicator, and date of birth with age. You can edit the contact Bio directly within the preview, hover over badges to view tooltips, view preferred communication channels, click the linked household name to open the household preview, and manage notes (including adding, editing, printing, and deleting notes).

Company previews are similar to contact previews, and in addition display the parent company and addressee information alongside company badges and details.

Household previews are similar to contact previews, and in addition include a Members card, which allow users to add new household members directly from the preview, as well as menu options to edit, remove, or preview individual members.

NexJ Reporting feature (Reports workspace) enhancements

  • The date and time picker dialog used on the Reports workspace now matches the date and time picker used in the rest of the NexJ CRM application (CRM-6796).

  • When adding a date filter to a report, you can now specify either fixed dates (such as June 26, 2025) or relative dates (such as “5 days ago” or “3 months in the future”) (CRM-6821). To specify a fixed date, select Fixed. To specify a relative date, select the time period you want to use to calculate the relative date. The options are Day, Week, Month, Quarter, Half, and Year. To specify relative dates with an attribute which includes both date and time, select the Filter by Date Only option.

  • The Create Report dialog now supports keyboard navigation (CRM-6792). You can move through subject areas and report template options using the Up and Down arrow keys, and select the preferred choice using the Enter key. Use the Tab key to navigate between the buttons and sections within the dialog. The All subject area receives focus by default when the dialog opens.

  • The attribute tree selection dialogs for Fields, Filters, Sorting, Advanced Filters, Calculated Fields, Groupings, and Calculations now support keyboard navigation (CRM-6791). You can move between fields with the Up and Down arrow keys, expand associations with the Right arrow key, and collapse them with the Left arrow key. Use the Tab key to navigate between the buttons and sections within the dialog.

  • Dashboard functionality and dialogs have been aligned more closely with reports (CRM-2589), including the following changes:

    • The dashboard builder header has been redesigned to match the report builder layout. When creating or editing a dashboard, the Private and Public options are now displayed as radio buttons.

    • In the All Dashboards and My Dashboards tabs, the View and Update Dashboard commands have been removed from the context menu so clicking a dashboard name opens it directly. You can now access Export to PDF and Export Definition directly from the More Actions menu for individual dashboards. Additionally, you can now share a dashboard via email directly from the Dashboards list by selecting More Actions > Share Dashboard > Share by Email.

    • The Share by Email dialog now displays standard OK and Cancel buttons matching the report builder.

Security, integration, and automation upgrades

  • The googlei18n/libphonenumber library has been upgraded to 9.0.25 (released Feb 26, 2026) (CRM-6269).

  • The date.olson.db.js module has been upgraded to version 2026a (released March 2, 2026) (CRM-6270).

  • Apache Tomcat has been upgraded to version 9.0.120 (released by the Apache Software Foundation on July 3, 2026) (CRM-6876).

  • Selenium WebDriver has been upgraded to version 4.44.0 (released by the Software Freedom Conservancy on May 12, 2026) (CRM-6520). This item also includes upgrading Guava to version 33.6 (released on April 14, 2026).

Technical enhancements

  • Inter-node PKIX/SSL certificate trust failures are now logged as errors instead of warnings (CRM-6903). This makes critical certificate-related failures more likely to be detected by monitoring and alerting, helping prevent prolonged processing backlogs.

  • The Base64-encoded CRC value of a security token output by a SOA library, which is logged only at DUMP level, is now represented as a 64-bit value instead of a 32-bit value as in previous versions (CRM-6797).

  • The Max export summary rows system parameter has been renamed from Max PDF summary rows to reflect that it applies to both PDF and Excel exports (CRM-5857).
