Zenya 7.8.0 Update 10
Every 14 days, we release a minor update for Zenya SaaS. In these updates, we implement minor improvements, enhance Zenya’s performance and fix bugs. Minor updates have a minimal impact on Zenya’s end users. Changes with a greater impact are always rolled out in major updates, which are released approximately twice a year and are always announced in advance.
New features and improvements
In this update, you will find useful new features and several bug fixes that ensure a smoother experience. Check out what's new here.

Handling of hidden required fields updated
In version 7.8.0.5, we implemented a fix (bug 153071) for situations where a required field on a hidden row was not (automatically) populated and the report could not be submitted. In such cases, the hidden field was made visible so that the reporter could complete the form and submit it.
In practice, this frequently led to incorrect data entry, as it was often unclear to those submitting reports what information was expected in the field. Furthermore, this change could have unintended consequences for links with other reports and external systems.
We are therefore reversing this change. From this version onwards, hidden mandatory fields will no longer be displayed. If a hidden mandatory field is not filled in (automatically), the form cannot be submitted and the user will see a notification to this effect.
Zenya AI Chat is available
Zenya AI Chat is an AI chat module that is integrated directly into the Zenya environment. Staff ask questions in everyday language and receive answers based on their organisation’s own documents: protocols, policy manuals, guidelines and procedures.
The core features of Zenya AI Chat are Assistants: configurable AI specialists that administrators can set up themselves for each target group or department. A healthcare organisation can thus set up a separate Assistant for nursing, HR and the works council, each linked to the relevant document collection.
This release marks the launch of the first version of Zenya AI Chat: from the conversation interface and the configuration screen to the rights management system and the quality of the AI.
Zenya AI Chat
We have implemented a number of improvements to Zenya AI Chat to further optimise the user experience. These optimisations ensure smoother operation, improved performance and an even more reliable interaction with the AI assistant.
A better understanding of the sources behind AI responses
When you click on a source reference in Zenya Chat, the sidebar highlights the excerpt that the assistant actually used for that part of the answer. The other retrieved excerpts remain visible, so you can see the context but know straight away which excerpt formed the basis of the answer.
AI features use a newer language model – GPT-5.6
The AI features in Zenya run on a newer language model. As a user, you won’t notice any difference in how they work; the features continue to function in the same way and provide answers of the same or better quality.
