data protection system updated

The protection of personal data held within e-vol has always been of paramount importance; with a bit of fresh thinking and an interface overhaul, it is now central to the way records are accessed within the system. With simple icons informing users of a record’s status at a glance and alerts warning users of the level of sensitivity applied to data, the system carefully balances the requirement for high levels of protection with the need for usability.

multi-language capability unveiled

e-Vol can be delivered with multi-language capability to provide support for all internal staff and Organisations where English is not the preferred method of communication. The capability includes:

  • The presentation of all front-end functionality (labels, drop-down lists, etc) in the user’s chosen language
  • Alerts for staff when a contact or organisation has stated a preferred language for communication

postcode lookup facility integrated

e-vol now has full support for postal address postcode lookup, meaning that your address data will be comprehensive, authoritative and accurate. Better still, you will no longer suffer from the dreaded duplicated postal address. The facility is available across both Contact and Organisation records.

advanced record de-duplication tool available

Following research into the most effective method of preventing duplicate records being entered onto the system, we have launched what we believe to be the best possible solution to an ever present problem.

An automated system tracks new additions to the database and makes percentage estimates on the likelihood of the entry being a duplicate based on a combination of several criteria, including name, address, postcode and email address. If the system believes the record to be a duplicate, it warns the user and offers show them the possible matches.

It is also possible for administrators to locate possible duplicates on the system using a custom written search tool. If a duplicate is identified, the administrator has the option of merging records, including interactions and associations.
