Version 1.20.1

New features​

New indicator and indication service (SLA)

  • The indications do not require business rules and events for start and calculation anymore. The feature is now based on a new microservice that significantly enhances the performance of the system and decreases the burden carried by it. You can select between the old module and the migration to the new service.

  • A special tool has been developed for the migration to the new SLA version. The copies of all existing indicators and indications are created in the new tables during the migration, the old tables with old indicators and indications are deleted, as well as related business rules required for the operation of the old indications.

    note

    IMPORTANT! Neither custom fields of indicator and indication tables, nor additionally configured business logic will be copied to the new module. It is recommended to move the data structure and business logic to separate tables and override them for the new module tables.

  • For the cloud instances, the migration to the new module can be requested at the version update if you select the Migrate SLA checkbox. For on-premise instances, use the migration guide added to the operational documentation.

Improvement of data export to Excel sheets

  • The export of a filtered list to Excel is now asynchronous, which allows to reliably download large amounts of data without errors.
  • The process of preparation of and receiving the file with exported data has been changed. Now, you can trace the progress of file preparation for download in the Export management widget. The files are added to a queue shared by all users of the instance where the files remain available for download until they are replaced by other files in the queue or deleted manually.
  • The export mechanism has been reworked. The exported data files are converted to the format that can be correctly interpreted by Excel. Before the download, the user ACL is checked to determine if the user is authorized to access the requested data.

Selection of number of elements per a list page

  • The users are able to select the number of records displayed per page in a list by clicking the icon and selecting the required option. That choice is individual for each user and applied in all sessions for every list.
  • The administrator can specify the choice options for the number of elements in a list per page in a new system property simple.list.record_count_options.
  • The administrator can also specify the default number of records displayed per page in a list for all users in the system settings.

New server API class – SimpleRecordSecure

  • A new server class has been created for secure interaction with the system records considering the access level (ACL) of the current user in the current session.
  • All SimpleRecordSecure methods are identical to the SimpleRecord methods but they are applied according to the ACL rules.

Decoration for the drop-down menu elements

  • It is now possible to add decorations for the menu elements added with the dropdownMenu tag. The decorations are configured in the widget server script.
  • You can configure the label text, the hint text, the color of the label text, the color of the label background, and the rounding of the label background.
