The BigFix team is pleased to announce an update to Software Distribution and the Self-Service Application.

**Reasons for Update**

**New Features in Self Service Application (SSA 3.2.3):**
- You can now use hyperlinks (HTML tags) in action pop-up notifications (In the text description area). This allows users to easily click through to a website with additional information.
- To help accommodate employee needs they can choose custom snooze date & time for Self-Service Application (SSA) actions.
- To minimize employee interruption System Administrators can choose a threshold for maximum number of SSA notifications allowed on the screen. When the threshold is exceeded, the panels are replaced with a single summary notification.

**Fixed issues:**
- KB0098225: SSA allows to close a message requiring a restart even when the deadline has been reached
- KB0101762: Software Distribution Analysis does not work on MacOS

**Actions to Take**
- Gathering of the site will automatically show the new updates.
- Users of the BigFix Self Service Application will need to update this component to version 3.2.3 using the following fixlets from Software Distribution site:
         -- Fixlet 302 to upgrade SSA for Windows.
         -- Fixlet 304 to upgrade SSA for Mac OS.

**Published Site Version**
Software Distribution, site version 114
