Changes
🔄 Effective on 2024-02-01 for demo sites, then 2024-02-09 for live sites. 🔄
API Mavens should check the always interesting and informative API Changelog.
👩🏻🏫 LS-73724: Trying to add a Case Bundle could result in an error telling you a bundle with that name already exists. You check the list and there is no bundle bearing that name. That's because the list doesn't show a bundle with no cases. Now it will.
LS-80389: Should the "Custom Fields" selector for "Case Copy Settings" let you select fields that won't be copied, giving you false hope? No it should not, and now it will not. Also see LS-109333 below.
✔️ LS-88387: The handy links like "Complete" on a task list, or "click here to mark as completed" on a task profile record the date marked completed and who did that. Editing a task and manually setting the Completed field to Yes does not. Now it will.
🔃 LS-109333: You implemented the Person module to get some nice custom fields, but were surprised to see all of the custom field values were copied when you created a new case from an existing case and included such a person in the copy. The surprise arose because you didn't select any of those custom fields in the "Custom Fields" selector in the "Case Copy Settings" section on the Admin > Process Settings page. The new "Custom Person Module Fields" selector will let you decide which field values are copied (none by default).
🚻 LS-109898: "You added a nice option to the Case Persons List block to let us create a case for a family member (mentioned in the 2024-01-24 Release Notes). That would be even nicer if it let you copy other family members into the new case." Already planned. Now done.
⭐ LS-110657: "The Outcome V2 lookup list desperately needs a column and filter on Outcome Category for Filters!" We agree. So we added both.
LS-110678: Blocks with required fields in Guided Navigation segments will sometimes let you save your segment of wonder without making a choice on said fields. But that can then cause problems when your dialogue of amazement is run by regular people. This ticket concludes an extended spelunking to not let this happen ever again.
👩🏾🔬 LS-110679: Changing your default Homepage, Case Profile, or other view could end in error sadness if inactive views were lurking in the system. We'll ignore them so you can get the view you want and deserve.
🚁 LS-110881: The "Also copy to" option will now work on an Add Case Note form when you also enter time via the "Also Attach Time To This Note?" timeslip mini-form.
LS-110993: Your Workflow of wonder creates an enhanced reminder. Now it can include an external form link if you so desire.
