2.2 Improved Document Listing Performance
To enhance the user experience, we have implemented improvements to speed up document listing performance. This means users will experience faster loading times when accessing and browsing through their document list on the document pop-up page in Veeva Vault.
2.3 Hiding Please Review Native UI Link
In a Veeva-centric environment, it is important to provide a seamless and unified user experience. With this goal in mind, we have added the ability to hide the Please Review Native UI link from the interface. This ensures that users are not presented with unnecessary options and only see the Veeva Vault centric functionalities.
2.4 Support for Partitioned Third-Party Cookies
As major web browsers are phasing out the use of third-party cookies, it is crucial to support alternative methods to keep using Veeva Vault centric seamlessly. To address this, our enhanced Veeva Vault Integration now supports partitioned third-party cookies. This ensures a smooth transition and uninterrupted usage of the integration while complying with evolving privacy regulations.
3. Advanced System Capabilities

To enhance system capabilities, we have implemented improved logging functionality. This allows administrators to capture the date and time of user logouts, providing more comprehensive audit trail information. This enhancement ensures better tracking and accountability within the system.
3.2 Enhanced Usage Report
For administrators, having access to accurate and detailed usage reports is essential for monitoring and optimizing system performance. With our enhanced Veeva Vault Integration, the usage report now includes participant names and participant numbers.
