Group Term Life Updates

Electric Delivery and Signature Update
We wanted to give a heads-up! If clients are using Electronic Signature and/or Electronic Delivery of Tax Forms, user agreements will need to be updated. Upon release, employees and client users will be required to respond to the pop-up messages as applicable:
- For Employees
- Terms of Use and Consent to Electronic Communications and Electronic Signature
- Terms of Use and Consent to Electronic Delivery of Tax Forms
- For Client Users (only in isolved People Cloud and when the ICC Digitized Forms SSO legal service is turned on)
- Terms of Use and Consent to Electronic Communications and Electronic Signature
Employees will only need to consent to the agreements once in either system. In other words, if the employee has already accepted the updates in People Cloud, they will not be prompted again.
Note: The update in isolved People Cloud will be released on Friday, 4/11 and the AEE update will be released on the following Monday, 4/14.

Sneak Peek
UI Cohesion
isolved is introducing some updates to our user experience to streamline navigation and make usage more intuitive. There are a few pillars to this update that are coming.
Employee Workspace
We are overhauling the Adaptive Employee Experience to include widgets that improve the ability to do regular tasks without having to navigate onto different screens. This includes a Punch Widget, a task to do widget as well as a pay widget. This will show employees outstanding tasks and add the ability to navigate to other tools to complete University courses, performance reviews, etc. Below is a screenshot of what this will look like:
Global Header w/ App Launcher
In the above image you can see the update to our Header. This header currently exists in AEE and will be added to all our isolved products over the course of this release. An addition to this header is a new app launcher which will allow for easy navigation between the suite of isolved products. This will accompany the existing Profile, Notifications and Conversational Virtual Assistant (if added).
Updated Notifications
Currently the notification bell only includes notifications from AEE, we are revamping the notifications bell that is in the header, to also include notifications from all applications and include navigation to applications for easier navigation. This will create a central location for all your notifications across all our tools.
Color and Typography
As a part of this rollout, we will be continuing to update color and typography to match across all our products, this is a continuation of some updates we have already pushed to Core and AEE.
Timing
We are planning to roll these changes out in a few phases starting in the last week in May (5/26) and finishing in early June, we will be sending out more information for when these updates will be coming to you!
