Company Admins Sandbox control

Company admins now have the capability to turn on or off sandbox access for their own Financial Institution. This is using the same workflow that internally we have been using for years to entitle sandbox access. When a user requests sandbox access, those requests are now going to that user's Company Admin via email for them to turn on Sandbox access.

When a Company Admin deletes a particular user, that user cannot sign up again. This is by design as when a user is deleted the expectation is that user has left the company so for security reasons we do not want to allow them to sign up again.

Tecton News

Over the last couple of months, the Tecton team has been focused on tackling a small list of improvements related to usability and accessibility; most of which is behind-the-scenes. However, while tackling that work, we've been able to add a couple of new features along the way.

On the <q2-pagination> component, you can now provide a perPageIncrements property, which will allow it to display a new dropdown where you can change the per-page count that is displayed by the component.
On <q2-select>, you can now provide the clearable property, similar to <q2-calendar> and <q2-input> which will allow users to de-select a selected option or options.

As we move towards the end of the calendar year, we plan to focus on some improvements to developer experience, documentation, and styling consistency with form fields. We look forward to sharing these updates with you when they are ready!
