When you first log into BRIAN after the upgrade, similar to the current version, you will notice the “My Actions” box at the top, next to your profile picture. The functionality which has been retained is the ability to switch the actions to either a “carousel” or “list” view by clicking on the three dots to the top right corner –
If you switch it to the list view, it will look like this –
The advantage of the “list” view is that it allows you to have an overview of all the pending actions, and for you to act on them quickly and easily.
There will be a planned upgrade to BRIAN taking place beginning the week commencing 19th April, during which time BRIAN will be unavailable for use. The planned upgrade is expected to take place all week, therefore we are hoping for BRIAN to resume running again by 25th April 2022 (if not earlier).
Do stay tuned for more exciting new features from the BRIAN upgrade!
