We’re excited to share the latest updates to the Athennian platform, designed to enhance your workflows and streamline your experience. Here’s what's new:

What’s New

Global Audit Trail

We’re bringing you a new, consolidated audit trail capability that enables you to track changes across entities and people with date range, user, event type and area filters to enable more granular auditing.

This helps admins more clearly identify data changes within the system, empowering them to speed up resolutions and improve accountability, while also supporting more stringent audit requirements for tracking sensitive changes across key records.

Availability: Customers on the Enterprise plan (accessible by Administrators).

Release schedule: If you're not seeing this feature in your environment yet, it will be available to you in the near future. If you have any questions, feel free to contact your CSM.

Beta: Integration with Microsoft Power Automate

We’re developing a new integration that opens Athennian to more external workflows and integrations with other systems through a low-code experience. The beta use case we’re enabling allows automation of new entity creation, helping streamline collaboration across systems and stakeholders.

Our team will work closely with the beta group to build out more use cases and connections to other critical systems.

Availability: Connect with your CSM to share your interest in joining this limited beta to expand your integrations with Athennian.

 

New Dynamic Structure Charts

Get ready to experience a whole new level of clarity and control with the latest enhancements to Athennian's Structure Charts. We’ve been hard at work to give you even greater precision, consistency and visible impact for how you understand and present your ownership structure data.

Here’s what's new:

  • Performance Improvement: The new charts engine provides faster load times, greater stability and allows you to drag and drop nodes, lines and chart legends giving you more power to configure chart views for departmental and compliance needs.
  • Custom Legends: Now, admins can set default legends for consistent organization-wide charting. Plus, you and your teams can create personalized legends with custom shapes, lines, categories and colors to perfectly match your internal standards or specific needs.
  • Shape Customization: Easily configure the outer and inner shapes, borders and connection lines for entities and people. This helps align charts to your internal formats and makes visual grouping far easier to understand.
  • Layout Controls & Reordering: Say goodbye to chart sprawl! You can now adjust layout settings and reorder entities, making even your largest and most complex charts cleaner and more readable for every team.

Availability: All customers*.

Release schedule: *We’re giving customers the option to opt in to the New Experience before making a global switch to the New Dynamic Charts experience. Contact your CSM if you’d like to learn more or want to enable the New Experience now.

Add Custom Fields to Sections

With this update, admins can now incorporate Custom Fields directly into specific sections within an entity record.

This enhancement improves clarity by placing Custom Fields exactly where they're most relevant. It also removes the need to navigate to a separate Custom Fields page, keeping critical data front and center for a truly seamless experience.

Availability: Custom Fields add-on.  Contact your CSM if you’re interested in this feature.
