Clausion 26.08 Release Notes
Introduction
This document includes information about the new features, other improvements, and corrected known issues implemented in the Clausion 26.08 release.
New Features and Other Improvements
Dynamic Reporting Online Release 26.08
Feature ID: FD-38083
The DR Online release for 26.08 brings significant improvements to the DR Online functionality, ensuring better performance and user experience across all operations.
Data Function Permission Check Without Server Restart
Feature ID: FD-35475
In the DR Online version 26.08, the DRData function has been updated to utilize the Web Client service cache instead of relying on the application server cache for user permission checks. Thanks to the improvement, the application server no longer needs to be restarted when you change the access rights of the units used in the DRdata function.
Permission updates made on the Desktop Client are now reflected immediately through the Web Client cache refresh mechanism, eliminating the need for an application server restart.
Audit History Control for Data Uploader
Feature ID: FD-26629
You now have granular control over when audit history logs are created during Data Uploader runs. Previously, audit history was automatically generated for every Data Uploader execution regardless of whether documentation was needed. A new checkbox on the Data Uploader Management screen lets you specify whether audit logs should be created for each run.
By default, this checkbox is not selected. This prevents unnecessary audit trail entries from being created when the same actuals data is imported daily from the ERP system, resulting in a significant reduction in required resources and database size. When you need audit history for a specific data uploader instance, simply check the box before running the upload.
Automatic Status Change Comments in Workflow Tasks
Feature ID: FD-36712
The Workflow Comment section now includes automated system comments for every status change. Each time a workflow task status changes (New, In Progress, Ready, Approved, Rejected), the system automatically generates a comment documenting the transition with the user who made the change and the timestamp. System-generated comments are read-only and cannot be edited or deleted, creating a complete audit trail for all workflow progress. You can continue to add your own manual comments alongside system comments to provide additional context.
Workflow Management Sort Order Configuration
Feature ID: FD-36711
You can now customize the sort order of UI blocks in the workflow management screen. Drag and drop UI blocks to arrange them in the order you prefer, and these changes are immediately saved to the database. The sort order appears consistently across all related management screens and execution interfaces. The system also preserves unit hierarchy as configured on the Desktop Client side. When you modify only the sort order of UI blocks, the system allows changes without requiring you to reactivate the workflow, providing greater flexibility in workflow configuration.
Multi-Cell Copy-Paste in ACE Management
Feature ID: FD-35697
You can now copy and paste multiple cells at once in ACE management, bringing greater flexibility to your data entry workflow. Previously, you were limited to copying and pasting a single cell at a time. With this enhancement, you can copy multiple cells from Excel or within the ACE interface and paste them across different ACE groups. The system automatically generates the required IDs, allowing you to paste entire rows or sets of rows efficiently, just like working with Excel sheets. You can also delete content from multiple selected cells simultaneously by pressing the Delete key.
Enhanced Counter Unit Validation for All Type 2 Series
Feature ID: FD-35121
You now receive validation messages when attempting to set the counter unit and unit as identical for internal accounts across all type 2 document series. Previously, this validation check was only applied to the 20,000 series. With this enhancement, the validation now applies to all type 2 series configurations (including 20,000, 200,000, or any other series belonging to type 2), preventing invalid data entry and maintaining data integrity across your entire system.
Selective DATAMAIN Table History Configuration
Feature ID: FD-32682
You can now enable DATAMAIN table history tracking for specific data types rather than enabling it for all data types at once. Previously, executing the table history stored procedure would create history tables for all data types in your system. Now you can specify individual data type IDs to selectively enable history tracking only where needed.
Simply provide the data type ID (for example, ACT or BUD) in the stored procedure, and the history table will be created only for that data type. If you omit the data type parameter or provide a null value, the procedure defaults to creating history tables for all data types, maintaining backward compatibility.
