On June 9, the General Conference Session of Seventh-day Adventists voted to approve a new statement about the writings of Ellen White. You can find the entire statement in the record of business at this link.
Eleventh Business Meeting | Adventist Review
It indicates that Adventists see Ellen White's writings as an "inspired guide" to Bible passages.
We believe that the writings of Ellen G White were inspired by the Holy Spirit and are Christ centered and Bible based. Rather than replacing Scripture, they uplift its normative character, safeguard the Church from “every wind of doctrine” (Eph 4:14), and offer an inspired guide to Bible passages without exhausting their meaning or preventing further study. They also help us to overcome the human tendency to accept from the Bible what we like and to distort or disregard what we do not like.
