FIELD MANAGEMENT- Field usage report capability:
Why it was developed: Unnecessary fields are often created during the initial phase of projects, which can lead to a cluttered and inefficient environment. This new functionality was developed to address this problem.
Added value:
Use case scenario:
Imagine that a project has created many different fields in the initial phase to collect data. After a while, many of these fields appear to be no longer needed, but it is unclear which fields can be safely removed without breaking the functionality. With the "field usage report capability," the user can generate an overview of all fields and see exactly where each field is used. The user can then select and remove the fields that are no longer used anywhere, cleaning up the Mavim environment and making maintenance more efficient.
The field usage report capability offers a comprehensive overview of all existing fields in a Mavim instance, including the field sets and topics they are used in. This feature allows users to sort and filter the usage report columns. Selecting a field allows the user to see where it has been used, and double-clicking navigates directly to that topic in the tree, streamlining the cleanup of unnecessary fields.

New
We have created a new Fields Usage function to generate an overview of available fields and field sets.

Improved
