Fix for confusion of contexts and naming for publication exports (HOTFIX-8303, ISSUE-769638)

When exporting data below a publication where the format is Publication Excel with section names that are language dependent, then the selected context (Advanced tab) is used to determine the names. The following configuration property needs to be added: FixSpecific.ISSUE769638=true

Fix for performance issues related to Advanced Search (ISSUE-743416, HOTFIX-7940)

Now, on the Web UI's Advanced Search screen, limits on filtering will be the same as those applied to the entire Advanced Search screen to prevent Out Of Memory issues.

Fix for PDX Configured Channel: Support for a few fields that enable 'Enhanced Content' (HOTFIX-8234, RDPORT-18118)

Add support for 'Enhanced Content' tag

Fix for issue with Match and Merge response received from STIBO while creating HCO / HCP (HOTFIX-8222, ISSUE-763722)

Fix for Please clear stuck BGP in Production (HOTFIX-8210, ISSUE-728994)

Locking (e.g. used for background-process access) had an error that in rare conditions  could cause a lock to get stuck  (when used from two different places and hitting a bad race condition) and block any future use of that lock until restart. This has been fixed. This was an issue for a frequently running Inbound Integration Endpoint that was also invoked from the Rest API, where the endpoint could end up getting stuck.

Fix for issue with Match and Merge response received from STIBO while creating HCO / HCP (ISSUE-763722, HOTFIX-8191)

Resolved issue where data would appear duplicated in the web service response when Object Linking and Embedding (OLE) occurs, but would succeed when retried.

Added ability to create temporary config properties (RDSUP-429)

Made a change so that we can make temporary config properties which can be removed again without STEP failing to start. If a config property starts with FixSpecific. and it is not defined in STEP, the application server will now simply warn instead of fail to start. This is to enable us to better support customers in the future without risking side-effects for other customers. This change is only internal and for future use, so it has no effect on any existing systems.

Fix for Web UI 'List of Values Management Screen' - the values are not sorted correctly (HOTFIX-8194, ISSUE-763790)

Now, LOV values on the List of Values Management screen in Web UI will be sorted in the same order as in workbench.

Fixed the basket node count in STEP 2024.2.

Fix for Web UI 'List of Values Management Screen' - the values are not sorted correctly (ISSUE-763790, HOTFIX-8166)

Now, LOV values on the List of Values Management screen in Web UI will be sorted in the same order as in workbench.

Fix for key product information keeps loading for long time in QA after upgrade (HOTFIX-8169, ISSUE-760371)

Fixed an issue where the UI Product Editor may sometimes remain in a loading state. This was due to a security mechanism from GraphQL that stops the query should it be extremely large in size (exceeding the allowed amount of grammar tokens for the request). The change set accounts for this edge case and wires the request appropriately so that GraphQL is not overwhelmed.

Fix for issue with STEP availability (HOTFIX-8163, ISSUE-762261)

To fix an issue resulting in STEP becoming unavailable, guardrails were implemented that prevent users from creating too many revisions for a node, too many multi values, or values that are too large.

Fix for being unable to use spot --upgrade on STEP versions before 2024.4 (RDHELP-8451)

If certain components are installed on a system and spot --upgrade was asked to plan an upgrade that included those components, then it would come up with an upgrade that was not actually possible. The problem was that the requirement for a different Java Runtime was not communicated via the dependency data that spot --upgrade uses to plan upgrades. This has now been rectified by making SPOT create the needed information for the software already on the system and by creating it for the available software, too.

Fix for issues with ETIM-BMEcat (HOTFIX-8150, ISSUE-759883)

To address issues surrounding ETIM and BMEcat, a fix has been implemented that allows STEP to export empty values converted to text using transformations, and not export not-converted empty values using BMECat2005 exporter. This requires a config property to be set as follows: ExportManager.BMECat2005.ExportValidAndAbsent=true

Fix for Edit Asset loading wrong image (ISSUE-89566, ISSUE-761634, HOTFIX-8146)

Using Edit Asset to edit an image worked correctly the first time, but would continue to bring up the first image when editing other images. To fix the issue, the UI object is updated when fetching the thumbnail so the interface shows the proper object.

Fix for AutoPage pagination - Object does not move to the next page if it does not fit on rest of page (RDHELP-8784, HOTFIX-8133, ISSUE-748222)

A better user-friendly message was added and an import should continue when trying to change ownership of classification to product links in Cassandra.

Fix for unable to render component Unmerge Wizard Screen (ISSUE-724825, HOTFIX-7878)

Fixed .type being called on an undefined object in the CMDM Unmerge Wizard Screen React Web UI component.

Fix for missing extValues for attributeLinks in MongoDB (ISSUE-751613, HOTFIX-8114, HOTFIX-8115)

It was not possible to get the ID of a value of a List of Values in AttributeLink, because the extValues document for the AttributeLink was not exported. Now, the JSON Converter is changed so that the extValues document for the AttributeLink will be exported. Then, the LOV value ID will be accessible.
