The latest UX updates, including Web Components and jQuery components libraries, new role-based Workspaces, and GenAI.

COMPONENT LIBRARIES

Update: Web Components and jQuery Components Libraries

Our Web Components library for the Infor Design System moves out of beta and into general availability in the April 2024 release. The previously announced plans to deprecate the jQuery components have been paused indefinitely. Maintaining both the Web Components and jQuery components libraries lets us strategically and effectively support all Infor solutions on their unique paths forward to better user experiences. 


2024.04 FEATURE RELEASE

Workspaces

Ten new role-based Workspaces—including employee, purchasing manager, and customer service representative—are available in the 2024.04 Feature Release. Designed to drive user productivity, success, and satisfaction, Workspaces are a convenient place for users to start and end their day, dive deeper into applications, and navigate across the CloudSuite. From day one, Workspaces give users relevant content and immediate access to their most important tasks and data.


2024.04 FEATURE RELEASE

GenAI UX Best Practices 

To ensure that end users can productively interact with our GenAI tool, the design system has published new guidance tailored for scenarios where a single input into the model generates a single output. The objectives of this guidance are to: 

  • Provide a consistent, user-friendly experience across all Infor applications.
  • Shorten the learning curve so users get value out of GenAI more quickly. 
  • Make GenAI outcomes relevant to the capabilities and functionality of our solutions to amplify user success.

FOUNDATIONS

Custom Icons

Sometimes there are use cases which require icons that aren’t currently offered by the design system. Design guidance has been published for creating icons to ensure that they’re consistent with the visual style of the new system icons set, providing a cohesive experience for end users.
