New in Softadmin® 8.8.0

February 2026

New Features

The Coordinator Component

The Coordinator component calls other menu items, allowing a multi–menu-item workflow to be managed from a single stored procedure. It does not replace forwarding: the Coordinator can only call menu items without a UI, and many workflows still depend on the user navigating from one page to the next.

The Coordinator is useful in scheduled jobs that require multiple menu items to be called in the correct order. A job menu item can not forward, but the Coordinator can call additional menu items without using forwarding.

Checkbox Cards

The new control Checkbox Cards, functions much like the existing Radio Cards, except that it allows users to choose a variable number of options.

Native Browser Notifications

We now support sending native browser notifications, in addition to sending notifications to the iOS and Android Softadmin® apps. This is primarily intended to send notifications to the PWA (Progressive Web App) version of Softadmin®, which allows users to add a system directly to their home screen without involving any app stores. However, native notifications can also, if the user so chooses, be sent to the Windows notifications center.

UX Changes

Description Visible for All Menu Items in Menu Group

All menu items in a menu group now display their descriptions, not only the featured ones. Descriptions will still appear as tooltips, but shorter texts are now shown directly to the user.

On mobile, the menu group list will now be displayed in a drawer.
