As you work to drive efficiency and engagement across your franchise network, we've been working hard to deliver new capabilities to support your goals.

Sneak Peek of the April Highlights
Leverage new Top Stories layouts to drive attention and engagement to your most important brand updates
Efficiently Perform Bulk Actions on your Unit records
In our April release, we have introduced new bulk actions, such as Add Remarks, Change Lifecycle Stage, Start/Stop checklist notifications, in addition to the same bulk actions you can perform on your unit records in Information Manager on the unified unit summary views.
We have also made it easy to quickly log activity for your units right from the unit profile. 
Note: These actions will be available based on the existing user permissions. For example, if a user can currently log a task for a unit in Information Manager, they will see this option in this view.
The new layouts available on your Command Center use existing Stories configured in the Hub to enable you to share the right content, with the right people, at the right time.
