Offline iHRIS Has Now Been Renamed to Windows iHRIS 20 November 2008

To better reflect its functionality, we have renamed the Windows version of the iHRIS Suite from “Offline iHRIS” to “Windows iHRIS.”

Although originally developed to be used in locations with limited or no Internet connectivity, Windows iHRIS can now be accessed via a local network or the Internet. Therefore, it is not strictly an “offline” application.

In conjunction with the release today of iHRIS Suite 3.1.3, we have also released a minor update to Windows iHRIS (version 3.1.3). This update incorporates some minor bug fixes. In addition, the job application in iHRIS Manage is now a module that can be enabled or disabled.

To download the latest version or for more information, please visit the Windows iHRIS page on our website.

Announcing Version 3.1.3 Bug Fix Release of the iHRIS Suite 20 November 2008

We are pleased to announce the release of minor updates to all three components in the iHRIS Suite.

iHRIS Manage and iHRIS Qualify 3.1.3 incorporate several bug fixes, and we have improved translation support to better enable the software interface to be translated into multiple languages using Launchpad’s translations feature. iHRIS Manage also has one new feature: the job application is now a module that can be turned on and off.

The full iHRIS Suite or any component may be downloaded from our Software Download web page. Please read the README file and installation instructions before downloading.

You may access a live, working demo of each of the systems via our website as well. To get started, visit the iHRIS Software Suite page.
