The enhancements were across modules with Core HR, Payroll North America, Absence Management and Time and Labor with the most enhancements overall. Thirty-three of the 85 enhancements involved the usage of Fluid (inclusive of drop zone enablement). Fifty enhancements related to adding drop zone capabilities in fluid pages. If you have not embraced Fluid yet, your organization should be at a minimum developing a strategy to adopt it. Some of the key fluid enhancements in these images include:
