New Project Tab	The Inspire Planner Tab has been replaced with the Projects tab. This introduces a full private security model. Also, users are now able to create custom list views under the Projects tab.

Ability to Add Custom Fields to Salesforce Tasks	Users who have admin rights are now able to include custom fields for Salesforce Tasks in the Inspire Planner Interface, which are displayed in the Assigned To and List All Salesforce Tasks dialogue boxes.

Ability to Change Row Color	Users can now change the row color of a task to highlight or for grouping. Color is changed by right clicking to display the context menu and then selecting the desired color.

Language Localization for Task Status	Users with admin access can now define local language values for task statuses, which appear in the Status picklist within the app.

New Project Task Notification for Contacts	When enabled, the feature automatically sends a notification email to a contact when a new project task is assigned to them. This feature is enabled via the Inspire Planner Settings tab.

New Admin Settings Page	Admin users can now manage app configurations by accessing the Inspire Planner Settings tab.

New Priority Field for Project Task	A new Priority Field has been added as a column in Project Task, which is set to be visible by default. This field is mapped to the Salesforce Task Priority Field. Also, the Category column is hidden by default.

If the Project is locked, the app prompts and error to the user attempting to edit, and will have to wait until the Project is unlocked before making changes.
