- This pull request updates the configuration for allowed file types in the `appsettings.json` file to expand the range of supported formats for content management.
*Expanded the `AllowedFileTypes` list to include additional image,
audio, video, document, and archive file formats, such as `.ics`,
`.vcs`, `.bmp`, `.tiff`, `.webp`, `.heic`, `.wav`, `.aac`, `.flac`,
`.ogg`, `.m4a`, `.wma`, `.avi`, `.mov`, `.mkv`, `.wmv`, `.flv`, `.webm`,
`.xlsm`, `.csv`, `.ods`, `.odt`, `.dot`, `.dotx`, `.mdb`, `.accdb`,
`.ppsx`, `.odp`, `.txt`, `.rtf`, `.md`, `.zip`, and `.rar`.
- When editing a person in people management, the user clicks on the appointment tab, the children are revealed, AND the footer for transfer employee, etc., is also revealed, even though the appointment page is not loaded.
**Solution**
- Added JavaScript to determine if the tab is a sub-tab or a parent tab and only reveal the footer when a sub-tab is clicked. EXCEPT for the summary tab, which does not have any "children", the footer can directly show when this element is clicked.
---
#### **Tenant Management**
##### \[Mentoring & Coaching\] Banner Heading Changes (#121985)
- Mentoring and coaching were incorrectly displaying Learning Management for their banner
- When a template has KPI / KPA custom items that have the exact same name, the contract is created with the section items linked. Leading to a similar issue as previous where changing 1 item affects all of them. This is restricted on a per contract basis, so at least won't affect across contracts.
- Added used Ids list that populates when assigning the ids for the new custom section items, ensures that used Ids are not accidentaly assigned to all section item that have the same name.
---
#### **Content Management**
##### Document does not get attached on the first attempt (#133862)
**Problem**
- When selecting the upload document, selecting a file, closing the modal, and then reselecting the same file, the file does not get selected not bound to it.
**Solution**
- When clicking close modal, the file is not cleared, and therefore is seen as selected, so no file change event triggered
---
#### **Notifications**
##### Strip HTML from SMS Templates before sending SMS (#129165)
**Problem**
- SMS links display HTML tags
**Solution**
- Did not include HTML tags when sending an SMS
---
- When generating the report builder curl file, if the ValueString are empty, it fails on the GRPC side
- When clients require API integration to retrieve data similar to what they see in the report of report build we need to build custom APIs for each request.
- Create an API to retrieve the report builder results for any Report Builder report via a single API
- V8 and V9 require their own FullRefresh column within PackageSettings
**Solution**
- When moderation has been sent for quality assurance, no in-progress indication is shown on the dashboard
- Add a new check that, when sent to Quality Assurance, shows Moderation In Progress
---
#### **New Development - Performance Management**
##### Show fewer people on the Other People to Evaluate Section (#132590)
- When you need to evaluate others on Performance Management, the area displays:
We want staff members to see the scores as well. Essentially, what managers see, we want staff to see.
` method in `src/Web/WebMVC/Services/MasterDataService.cs` to improve the handling of `RecordIds` during filtering. The changes simplify the logic and ensure the original `RecordIds` are preserved for filtering operations.
##### Cannot access employee (#133837)
**Problem**
- Busting the cache doesn't always clear all the cache because we wait for the task to finish execution
- When setting cache, we don't wait for the response, but always use a false response, which causes ambiguity in logs
**Solution**
- Wait for the cache to be busted
- For some master data methods, use the default behaviour of waiting for the actual response after setting the cache
---
#### **Imports**
##### Payroll sync with ITS (#133878)
**Problem**
- When auto-processing PowerShell connectors, the connectors fail to complete due to the parallelism
- The PowerShell command is not robust and any failure fails the whole import on all rulesets
**Solution**
- This pull request refactors the `ProcessPowerShellPayrollConnectorsCommandHandler` class and simplifies the validation logic in the `UserImportStaging` domain model. Key changes include replacing parallel processing with sequential loops, adding error handling for PowerShell script execution, improving logging, and removing redundant validation methods.
---
#### **System Access**
##### Support URL not working (#133655)
**Problem**
- When the user has opened the themed login URL and then opens the support login, the redirect is a fully qualified URL, whilst if the user only opens the support URL, then the redirect URL is local
**Solution**
- Updated the redirect behaviour in SupportLogin to use Redirect for absolute URLs and LocalRedirect for relative URLs, ensuring correct handling of external return URLs after support login.
##### Add terms of use to the login page (#133812)
**Problem**
- Terms of use are not on the login page
- New URL for terms of use
**Solution**
- Add terms of use to the login page and update the R1 default to the URL
- Add a fallback to R1 from other rulesets when their own URL is not defined
---
# Version 9.1.170.2 (Support Release - 9 July 2025)
#### **People Management**
##### \[Kudos\]\[End-User\]: An error when sending a Kudo with a customised message (#133771)
**Problem**
- The user is unable to send a Kudo to a colleague. Recently, there has been a change which removes the "given\_name" key from the \_identityService authentication. Kudos directly uses Given Name, which caused it to not work anymore
- There is a duplicate auto-complete tag on the login page for the password input. Removed the "off" setting
**Solution**
- Use the username instead of the given name
##### HCO | New Tenant Creation | Errors (#133954)
**Problem**
- When a user with the people admin role and "Manage my data" active edits their own profile, any non-required fields on the summary or profile pages are marked as required.
**Solution**
- This pull request refines the conditional logic in the `_ProfilePersonal.cshtml` and `_Summary.cshtml` files to improve clarity and ensure consistent behavior when determining the visibility and editability of form fields based on user permissions and requirements.
---
#### **Ruleset Management**
##### \[Translation\] Add nl (Dutch) to the system - v8 and v9 (#133891)
**Problem**
- The language is not available for translation in the system
**Solution**
- Add nl (Dutch) to the system
---
#### **Imports**
##### User Import: Add rules to the import sample sheet (#134071)
**Problem**
- No description of the rules of each column in the user import
- When data is provided for a column without a heading, then the import fails obscurely
**Solution**
- This pull request introduces improvements to the `CreateListFromExcelStreamV1` method in `src/Web/WebMVC/Services/OpenXMLService.cs` to enhance code clarity and ensure data validation when processing Excel files. The most important changes include adding comments for better readability and implementing a check to avoid adding invalid or empty property names.
**Code readability improvements**
- Added a comment explaining the purpose of retrieving the first sheet from the workbook part's Sheets collection to clarify its role in worksheet data processing
**Data validation enhancements**
- Introduced a check to ensure that values are only added if the corresponding property name (header) is not null, empty, or whitespace, preventing invalid data from being processed
---
# Version 9.1.170.1 (Support Release - 2 July 2025)
#### **Performance Management**
##### Moderated agreement not shown as moderated on dashboard (#132770)
**Problem**

---
#### **Data Warehouse**
##### Add settings to PackageSettings to disable modules (#133513)
**Problem**
- V8 and V9 require their own FullRefresh column within PackageSettings
**Solution**
- Added new fields V8FullRefresh and V9FullRefresh within PackageSettings
---
#### **Imports**
##### Organisational Structure Not Reflecting in Target Audience (#133417)
**Problem**
- The reference to the import API was incorrectly pointing to Rapax, leading the V8 additional services imports not to report as completed.
**Solution**
- Corrected the Import api proto reference. Already corrected on Master.
---
# Version 9.1.170 (30 June 2025)
#### **Data Warehouse**
##### Add settings to PackageSettings to disable modules (#133513)
**Problem**
- Other clients do not use all the modules within the system, which will cause the DWH to fail
**Solution**
---
#### **Learning Management**
##### LMS Portal: Marksheet: Save does not work when entering and Removing Input in an Empty Row (#132306)
**Problem**
- When adding a value in a cell where there is no user, the marksheet can not be saved, even after removing the value
**Solution**
- Add new validation to ensure that the row has a user before taking any value to save
##### Only show First Name in comments (#133519)
**Problem**
- The full name displays instead of only name
**Solution**
- Change the full name on the marksheet to only display the name
---
# Version 9.1.169 (30 June 2025)
#### **Tenant Management**
##### Using Commas rather than periods causes loss of field data (#132987)
**Problem**
- When a "," is used to update decimal values of a field, the values are lost
**Solution**
- Convert commas to dots for consistency
---
#### **System Access**
##### The default displayed language is not applied from the Login page (#132901)
**Problem**
- The list of languages on the login screen always had the first alphabetical item in the list set as the selected value
**Solution**
- Try to get the User's preferred language from their cookies and fallback to the UI culture (most likely en-GB in most cases) if the cookie does not exist
---
#### **Imports**
##### Default Timeout for HttpClientWrapper to 5 minutes and remove option to set after initialisation (#132811)
**Problem**
- Since only one HttpClient is used and injected, its properties cannot change once any requests have been made. There are instances where the timeout is tried to be set after the HttpClient has already processed a request. This results in an error of " This instance has already started one or more requests. Properties can only be modified before sending the first request"
**Solution**
- By default, the HttpClient instance has a timeout of 5 minutes when it is initialised.
---
#### **Notifications**
##### Port and Time Out text box labels incorrect (#102607)
**Problem**
- When the page is displayed, the Port and Time Out text box labels have the border box drawn through the label.
**Solution**
- Change the floating labels to normal labels
---
#### **Report Builder**
##### \[Report Builder\]\[Admin User\]\[Delete\] Delete click area to be increased (#132803)
**Problem**
- Currently, the delete button is very small, and if you click a little off the icon, the Report's details are opened, which is not ideal.
**Solution**
- Increase the "My report builder" report delete button size
##### Previously deleted report imported by new user shown as previous user being the owner (#133015)
**Problem**
- Previously deleted report imported by a new user is shown as the previous user being the owner.
**Solution**
- Ensure that the user who imported the report shows as the owner of the imported report.
##### \[Report Builder\]\[End User\]\[Date Format\] Date format (English SA) not being applied on report (#133070)
**Problem**
- User culture was not always used in the report builder report results for date fields.
**Solution**
- This happened because when we checked for a date field before formatting according to user culture and timezone, we did not check for "datetime2" fields.
---
#### **Performance Management**
##### Unable to start Period 2 on a Bi-Annual setup (#133387)
**Problem**
- When starting a contract in the second review period,
**Solution**
- Added null values when copying a contract for the action plan items of training interventions that need to be bound
##### Linked setup items go over the edge of the card (#120465)
**Problem**
- When the Review Setup name or description has a lot of content, it pushes off the columns to the right, which causes the page to have a scroll and not be within the card
**Solution**
- Add a new wrapper around to scroll within the card, and not allow the page to grow horizontally.
---
# Version 9.1.168 (30 June 2025)
#### **Performance Management**
##### \[Recalculate Scores\] Results include deleted contracts (#133399)
**Problem**
- Deleted contracts are being retrieved when selecting the contract to recalculate
**Solution**
- Exclude deleted contracts
##### \[Recalculate Scores\] Search filters reset after recalculation (#133038)
**Problem**
- When agreements are selected to recalculate, selections are cleared because the new score might not show directly.
**Solution**
- Add a message indicating that recalculated scores can take up to 5 minutes to display
##### Key Competencies do not get highlighted when scrolled to (#133092)
**Problem**
- When the user is in the check-in phase and scrolls down, it does not hit the last section and highlight the nav menu on the left
**Solution**
- Resolved case to increase offset to ensure the section gets hit to highlight on the nav menu
##### Linked setup items go over the edge of the card (#120465)
**Problem**
- When the Review Setup name or description has a lot of content, it pushes off the columns to the right, which causes the page to have a scroll and not be within the card
**Solution**
- Add a new wrapper around to scroll within the card, and not allow the page to grow horizontally.
---
#### **Tenant Management**
##### Unable to delete the tenant, which could not be created from the list (#133126)
**Problem**
- We were unable to delete a tenant that could not be created from the list due to the delete modal not being initialised correctly at times.
**Solution**
- Remove the data-mdb-toggle="modal" and data-mdb-target tags from the button to ensure that the modal always initialises and displays correctly (this causes the modal to display automatically without having to bind a click event). Also, bind the click events directly on the document so that we don't have instances where we try to bind the event before the elements are rendered on the page.
---
#### **Report Builder**
##### Condition button missing on first Filter By entry (#133101)
**Problem**
- The **Condition** button is removed from the first **Filter By** entry on the **Filtering** canvas.
**Solution**
- Move the condition column to the left
---
#### **Learning Management**
##### \[Shared Links\] Links do not open the Pathways (#132844)
**Problem**
- Shared Pathway links don't open but give a Not Found error. This is caused by a malformed URL.
**Solution**
- Avoid adding empty redirect URLs to the query string because it causes the query string to have duplicates. Duplicates create an invalid resulting URL.
---
# Version 9.1.167 (30 June 2025)
#### **Data Warehouse**
##### As a Report Builder Administrator, I want to have the audit data in the DWH so that I can create a report for the recalculated scores (#130423)
**Problem**
- The new recalculated score fields are not available within the Report Builder
**Solution**
- Added the new recalculated score fields within the Report Builder (DWH)
##### New Scorecard Status Report (#127073)
**Problem**
- The DWH did not exclude disabled years when generating the list dropdown values
**Solution**
- Adjusted the DWH package to exclude disabled years for list dropdown values
#####
##### Add additional fields to accTenantStats (#132864)
**Problem**
**Solution**
---
#### **Ruleset Setup | Image Resources**
##### Unable to upload Banner Image (#133162)
**Problem**
- The file name included in the directory creation is causing issues with the image stream
**Solution**
- Only used the directory in creation
---
#### **Report Builder**
##### Date Parameters Logic vs Results (#132813)
**Problem**
- When date filters were being applied, it would also consider the time and thus end up being inconsistent and unintuitive
**Solution**
- The date filters should only consider the date value, not the time at all
##### \[Value Text Box\] Value text box is not emptied when changing the operator to 'list' (#133110)
**Problem**
- When the operator is changed to 'list' after already inserting text into the 'Value' text box, the box is not emptied when selecting the 'list' type operator. The text box has been disabled for this operator, so it cannot be emptied.
**Solution**
- Make sure that the Value text box is cleared when the Operator is cleared.
---
#### **Performance Management**
##### As a Performance Management Administrator, I want to recalculate performance scores from Bulk Actions (#130420)
**Problem**
- When a new review survey is added or review period weights are adjusted, all agreements that have already been done are/was calculated on the current weights being used
**Solution**
- Add a new Event to recalculate agreements
---
#### **Tenant Management**
##### Time to be displayed on the system Close Date shown on Description tab (#129940)
**Problem**
- Please add the time (11:59 - i.e one second to midnight) on the display of the **System Close Date** as it does for the **Expiry Date**.
**Solution**
- Fixed system close dates not displaying consistently across the system.
- We also now display *(at the end of the day)* next to the dates, to make clear when the system will close or expires.
- Finally, display "ExpireD" vs "ExpireS" on based on if the expiry date is in the future vs if it is in the past, when displaying the warning for system admin users.
---
#### **General**
##### Help Files: Feedback Label not displaying correctly (#133157)
**Problem**
- Feedback Label not displaying correctly
**Solution**
- Corrected the path for the translation
##### \[Tools page\] \[System Summary\] \[Styling\] Improve column spacing (#132973)
**Problem**
- Improve column spacing
**Solution**
- Adjusted spacing and wording, additionally, in the case of overflow, the ellipse and tooltip, the text
##### Always log an error when throw is used in code (#130740)
**Problem**
- Sometimes an error is caught and thrown, but not logged to the error log. This makes it difficult to investigate some errors experienced in production
**Solution**
- Added loggers where appropriate to WebMVC, Notifications, Audit, Identity, Master Data, Import, Job Profiler, Performance, Learning, and Content Management
- Added explicit typing where I encountered any generics
- Reformatted some pages to follow the convention
---
# Version 9.1.166 (30 June 2025)
#### **Report Builder**
##### Objective Settings Queries (#133021)
**Problem**
- The Select Distinct set on the report is not applied when exporting, only on viewing, leading to duplicate records being displayed when exported.
**Solution**
- If DistinctRows is not provided, fall back to the configuration on the report.
##### Allow report builder admins to set certain filter criteria fields as drop-downs in a report (#129916)
**New Development**
***User Story 1 – Add a step to the DWH SSIS packages***
- Add a step on the DWH SSIS packages to check for any filters that are of Operator type 'Is Equal to (from List)', and then select a unique list of the values into a new table that contains the relevant data source ID and data field ID and then the individual item values. E.g.
DataSourceId DataFieldId RulesetId ListItemValue
1 1 10 FY24
1 1 10 FY25
1 2 11 Mid-Year
1 2 11 Final
***User Story 2 – As a Report Builder Administrator, I want to have a new operator available named is equal to (from the list)***
- Add a new filter Operator
- Is equal to (from list)
- When this is the operator type, do not show the input, as the list will be determined at runtime
- Ensure the data that is displayed is Ruleset-specific
***User Story 3 – As a Report User, I want to select the dropdown with the available values***
- Modify the View Report page to check for 'Is Equal To (From list)' filters and prefetch the unique values from the DWH table created above, add tand hat as list items to the page
- When the report is run the ,actual text value is still sent through, modification required to the report builder SP to handle 'List' operator filters as if it is 'Is Equal To (From list),' which does an exact match
- On the end-user view, the filter will show as follows, where the edit box on the right will show as a drop-down list.
##### Report Builder: Date Parameters Logic vs Results (#132813)
**Problem**
- When date filters were being applied, it would also consider the time and thus end up being inconsistent and unintuitive
**Solution**
- The date filters should only consider the date value, not the time at all
---
#### **Help Files**
##### As a person with access to the Help Files, I want to have an updated layout with feedback functionality (#129792)
**Problem**
- Change the help page modal's text to be more descriptive. Change the toggle functionality such that when checked, it would allow the content to be shown instead of hiding the content (reversed current toggle logic). For consistency, I standardised the pop-up design by adding a close (X) button to the top-right corner of all general modals (Only general modals for now).
**Solution**
- Added a generic close button at the top of each general modal. I also updated the help page's translations and fixed how the toggle works.
##### Add a feedback Template (#131914)
**Problem**
- The help screen modal should allow users (managers, employees, or administrators) to provide feedback on different parts of the system.
- It should have a feedback button to provide access to the new feedback functionality.
- The feedback form should show a new modal with three questions rendered as a partial view inside the modal.
- There should be appropriate error handling and navigation flow management.
- Upon submission, the following information should be sent to the Official Signify Documentation Email:
- A screenshot of the parent page embedded as a base64 image.
- The URL of the current window location.
- User details: username, first name, surname.
- Ruleset ID.
- Responses from the completed form.
- This functionality should be integrated using the existing "manual test notification" method.
**Solution**
- Altered the help page modal to include a button for showing the new feedback form.
- Added a new modal in the original CSHTML page containing the help page modals.
- Had the new feedback modal load the questions to answer in a new partial view, which uses JavaScript to manage when certain questions should be shown and other navigation flow management.
- Added translations for the new feedback modal in the languages
- Reused an existing method to send notifications. Most values are hardcoded, as they are unlikely to require changes.
##### Add feedback form (#131915)
- When the feedback button is clicked, open a new feedback model
- - Get the template ID from the notification service based on the code
- Get the user data from the users service
- On the model, implement show hide accordions according to the selection
- When feedback is clicked, trigger the manual test notification with the following
- - Send an email to documentation@signify.co.za
- Include the data
- Screenshot of parent page embedded as a base64 image
- URL from window location
- Username, name, surname,
- RulesetId
- Answers from the completed form
---
#### **Performance Management**
##### Manager rating cannot be saved - error message (#133058)
**Problem**
- When FinalRatingsOnly is enabled and the items are interpolated, it does not save the Manager Score along with the Final score (as it would when not interpolated). This causes the validation to fail when trying to approve the ratings.
**Solution**
- Ensure that the manager score values are also saved when the ratings type is FinalOnly, and correctly update the SPA after the save.
##### PM UPLOAD document button missing (#132985)
**Problem**
- When the contract is in the Objective phase but not yet in the Rating phase, users are unable to upload documents. As the Ratings phase where the only phase that where being checked/validated.
**Solution**
- Updated the validation logic to correctly parse and assess the current contract phase, ensuring document uploads are allowed during appropriate phases.
##### Incorrect Total after 10/10 Self-Rating and Error on Submit Final Rating (#131647)
**Problem**
- The scores within ContractPeriods do not round correctly when they round to above 100
**Solution**
- Adjusted the rounding issue for ContractPeriods scores to ensure it does not exceed 100
##### Move the "Modify Final Scores" option to the dashboard (#93147)
**Problem**
- When an agreement has been finalised and rated, you need to navigate within the agreement to select 'Modify Final Rating' when wanting to modify the agreement
**Solution**
- Added new Ellipse menu item to modify the Period Contract, and a new modal to select the Review Period to modify.
##### Radio buttons not behaving correctly (#121338)
**TBC**
---
#### **Data Warehouse**
##### Implement Additional Billing Fields for subscription (#132464)
**Problem**
- The default decimal precision of the decimal columns was set to 2, causing the entity framework to not update correctly, and the data not being there to be saved
**Solution**
- Set the decimal precision to match the appropriate values (38 numbers, 18 decimals)
##### Absenteeism tracking (#132467)
**Problem**
- The client requires a report that will show the absence history
**Solution**
- Added a new DataSource called lmAttendance that will provide the required data
##### Report Builder: 200 Data Value Fields in the HR Process Request Pivot Data Table (#132915)
**Problem**
- jpHRProcessRequestPivotData requires 100 extra custom fields
**Solution**
- Add 100 extra custom fields within jpHRProcessRequestPivotData
##### Years of service report (#133024)
**Problem**
- Field YearsOfService is required as requested by the client
**Solution**
- Added new field YearsOfService within Appointments
---
#### **Learning Management**
##### Manual overriding of marks - Report cards (#132474)
**Problem**
- Cannot add a negative mark that will not be counted in the average
**Solution**
- Allow the Teacher / Administrator to add a -1 for an absent student
- This mark should then be excluded from the average calculation
##### As an Administrator with access to the Learning Management setup, I want to import the Training Requirements and export the list (#131531)
**New Development**
***Create an import file to import the Training Requirements***
- Country
- Training Intervention Code
- Training Intervention
- Required Field
- Job Title
- Organisational Unit
- Job Grade
- Start Date in Position
- Requirement Start Date
- Requirement End Date
- Days required to complete the training
***Validation***
- If a Country Master Data value does not exist, the entire record will be rejected
- If a Training Intervention Code does not exist, the entire record will be rejected
- If a Training Intervention Code does not match the Training intervention, the entire record will be rejected
- If a Training Intervention does not exist, the entire record will be rejected
- If a Job Title does not exist, the entire record will be rejected
- If an Organisational Unit does not exist, the entire record will be rejected
- If a Job Grade Master Data value does not exist, the entire record will be rejected
- The Requirement Start Date cannot be after the Requirement End Date
- The Requirement End Date cannot be before the Requirement Start Date
***Export***
- Add Export functionality to export the table

#### **Tenant Management**
##### Time to be displayed on the system Close Date shown on Description tab (#129940)
**Problem**
- The time does not show for the System Close Date
**Solution**
- Ensure the time component is also displayed
##### Dates not displayed according to what was set on the update (#130503)
**Problem**
- When viewing the dates on the system, they do not match up with what has been set. It appears as though the date 202504-10 11:59 is shown in UTC +2, which would be 2025-04-11 @ 1:59.
**Solution**
- Fixed system close dates not displaying consistently across the system.
- We also now display (at the end of the day) next to the dates, to make clear when the system will close or expires.
- Finally, display "ExpireD" vs "ExpireS" on based on if the expiry date is in the future vs if it is in the past, when displaying the warning for system admin users.
---
#### **Imports**
##### Payspace Employee import rejections (#132840)
**Problem**
- When pulling users from Payspace, users without ID numbers have no employment statuses and are excluded from mapping without a reason.
**Solution**
- When the user does not have an ID number, fall back to the employee number when grouping the user's appointments to retrieve the latest record
- Add error logs for the users who are excluded
- Stage the excluded users into user staging for the Payspace import
- Ensure the provinces can be created case and culture-invariant.
**Another rule to be aware of is that the Payspace pull only imports terminated users when they already exist on the ruleset with the payroll ID from Payspace. Any user terminated on Payspace before today that does not exist in the payroll ID on the ruleset is excluded and will not be imported.**
##### Import log shows successful, but transaction log is empty (#132526)
**Problem**
- Not all import types are developed to export data; therefore, when a user clicks 'User validation report', it will export but have no data
**Solution**
- Add a new check to validate and ensure the import type is allowed to be validated
##### Automated Employee Details Import (1) (#104244)
**Problem**
- The import service Swagger is not working.
**Solution**
- Rename the duplicate message in the proto
---
#### **Content Management**
##### Bulk signing attempts fail immediately (#132716)
**Problem**
- When trying to sign attempts on multiple assessments, the process fails immediately. The retry also fails immediately.
**Solution**
- Add option to retrieve document by external request ID used for retry in V8
##### License documents are not digitally signed (#132379)
**Problem**
- When you print a license and then save it as a PDF, it does not have the certificate to show that it has been digitally signed.
**Solution**
- Correct problem when there is more than one signatory, the subsequent signatures show as invalid

# Version 9.1.165 (30 June 2025)
#### **People Management**
##### \[My Profile\] Error shown when user clicks on My Profile (#132878)
**Problem**
- When a user who does not have an admin role tries to view their profile, the page breaks.
- The problem is that it tries to fetch the active products for the tenant/ruleset, but the call to get ruleset information is admin-authorised only.
**Solution**
- Changed to get the tenant ID from the available anonymous call, which is then used to fetch the tenant subscription information.
##### \[Imports\] Error with future-dated appointment (#132805)
**Problem**
- When a user is added with a future-dated appointment, the appointment saves on V9 but does not sync with V8.
- When the User Import is manually executed, an error is encountered.
**Solution**
- Support users added to export a user for import to V8.
- Further investigation is in progress.
##### \[Appointments\] Terminated appointments can be deleted (#132690)
**Problem**
- When an end date (or termination date) has been added to an appointment record, it is possible to delete the appointment.
**Solution**
- The user cannot delete the latest primary appointment, even if there is a termination date.
- It is possible to delete a primary appointment that is not the latest.
##### \[Payroll integration\] User import fails when access to OrganisationPositionDetail is not granted (#132260)
**Problem**
- When the Payspace client does not grant access to the OrganizationPositionDetail, then the following API call fails as "forbidden": string url = $"{connector.BaseUrl}/v1.1/{companyId}/OrganizationPositionDetail?$count=true";
**Solution**
- Add try-catch statements when pulling data for the OFO code to suppress and log the failure should it occur, and then continue with the import.
#####
V9: Import Issue (#132815)
**Problem**
- When providing other data in the import for org level 1 than the default IN01 data, the import fails with the error: "The org node to link the user's position to could not be found."
**Solution**
- Add org level 1 as received data, and fall back to the default only when no data is provided
---
#### **Performance Management**
##### \[Agreement\] Manager Ratings not updated when Manager and Final Ratings can be completed simultaneously (#127230)
**Problem**
- With the setting to do both final rating and manager rating, the banner scores for Manager Rating are not being updated on the contract.
**Solution**
- Add a new check to update the Manager Rating along with the Final Rating when both are captured.
##### \[Agreement\] Radio buttons not behaving correctly when typing your own KPAs or selecting from the library (#121338)
**Problem**
- When adding a new KPA/KPI, the radio buttons do not work correctly when navigating between each toggle.
**Solution**

##### As a Performance Management Administrator, I want to recalculate performance scores from Bulk Actions (#130420)
**Problem**
- When a new Review Survey is added or Review Period weights are adjusted, it affects all agreements that have already been completed.
- The completed agreements were calculated based on the previous weightings.
- If the weights are later updated, and a user opens an existing or completed agreement, the score now appears differently than it should, based on the new weights.
**Solution**
- A new bulk action has been added to allow agreements to be recalculated using the updated weights.
- Users can now click on "Recalculate Scores", apply the necessary filters, and select all agreements that need to be recalculated.
- The process will then run and update the scores for those agreements accordingly.
##### As a System Administrator, I would like to enable a setting on the Review Setup to inherit contract section weights (#130993)
**Problem**
- Change the description of the settings for Auto copy and for the Inherit Contract Weights.

##### As a Performance Administrator, configuring Review Setups, I want a setting to allow training to be added to the PDP (#118125)
**Problem**
- When configuring a Review Setup, a Performance Administrator wants a setting to allow training to be linked to the personal development plan (PDP).
**Solution**
- A new setting was added that allows training interventions to be linked to a PDP.
##### \[Bulk Actions\] Errors display when you land on the Bulk Action Logs screen (#132668)
**Problem**
- When navigating to the Bulk Actions logs on Performance Management, it results in an error.
**Solution**
- Add a new column in the query that was created for the recalculation of performance management scores.
##### Performance Management: Incorrect Total after 10/10 Self-Rating and Error on Submit Final Rating (#131647)

**Solution**
- Adjusted the rounding issue for ContractPeriods scores to ensure it does not exceed 100
##### \[PM\] \[Full Agreement import\] Add more information to error messages (#129133)
**Problem**
- When there are errors on the Full PM import, it can be difficult to determine the exact section that the error relates to if there are multiple items used across sections.
**Solution**
- Improved the error messages to include the section that the error applies to in the error message, and had to add an additional parameter to get the translated section name to be able to correctly report the section in the error message.
##### The manager cannot modify objectives if objectives are approved and the ratings phase is inactive (#121163)
**Problem**
- When an agreement is within the ratings phase, which has not been started, it can be moved to modify objectives in the dashboard side, but it is unable to when navigating to the contract
**Solution**
- Fixed logic check to be able to modify objectives within the contract period view.
##### Path to link Signify to Power BI (#132335)
**Problem**
- An additional api required to export all user contract data for a review year and review setup
**Solution**

- Include location in org
- Remove image path for performance
##### Move the "Modify Final Scores" option to the dashboard (#93147)
**Problem**
- When an agreement has been finalised and rated, you need to navigate within the agreement to select 'Modify Final Rating' when wanting to modify the agreement
**Solution**
- Added a new Ellipse menu item to modify the Period Contract, and a new modal to select the Review Period to modify.
##### \[View/Print\] Unapproved ratings show on the report (#119167)
**Problem**
- Ratings are displayed on Print/View even if the scores have not been submitted

#### **Login**
##### \[Login\] A Person cannot log in if all MFA options are turned off on a ruleset (#132853)
**Problem**
- A user is unable to log in when none of the multi-factor authentication options have been enabled.
**Solution**
- Fixed the local redirect after login to handle the new redirecturl to ensure that users can log in whether MFA is enabled or disabled.
##### \[3rd Party Login\] Unable to log in with Microsoft (#132846)
**Problem**
- A user is unable to log in with Microsoft, and an error displays after account validation.
**Solution**
- Fixed the local redirect after login to handle the new redirect URL to ensure that users can log in with their Microsoft account.
---
#### **System Access**
##### Improve Performance opening V8 links from V9 (#131794)
**Problem**
- The encrypted query string causes low performance when accessing V8 pages from V9.
**Solution**
- Replace the encrypted query string with a time-based security key.
- The security key is valid for 30 minutes and remains unchanged for the period.
- It is built using the username, encryption key and time constant.
- Add deep links to quick links.
##### Send V8 notifications through V9 (#129209)
**Problem**
- A client with a configured token-based own SMTP on V9 needs a separate basic SMTP for V8.
- V8 notifications do not handle token-based SMTP authentication.
**Solution**
- Make the endpoint available on the notification service on V9 to receive and process messages.
- V8 attachments need to be handled.
##### Implement Encrypted Fallback config (#131882)
**Problem**
- The new security key implementation in V9 requires all V8 counterparts to also be upgraded.
**Solution**
- Add a config setting on V9 to whitelist rulesets by Id to use the previous query string encryption.
- When a ruleset is not part of the config, then the new security key method will be used.
##### As a person with access to the Help Files, I want to have an updated layout with feedback functionality (#129792 )
**Problem**
- The Help page modal's text needs to be more descriptive.
- The toggle functionality needs to be updated. When checked, it should allow the content to be shown instead of hiding the content (thus reversing the current toggle logic).
- Standardise the pop-up design by adding a close (X) button to the top-right corner of all general modals (only general modals for now).
**Solution**
- Added a generic close button at the top of each general modal.
- Updated the Help page's translations and fixed how the toggle for permissions works.
- A feedback button will be added in upcoming updates for this feature.
##### \[v9 URL\] Bookmark URL (#127982)
**Problem**
- Clients are experiencing issues when they bookmark the secure login URL for the Signify system.
**Solution**
- Change the identity login page to accept a theme URL as the redirect URL
- Allow the theme redirect to be used should the cookies or the ruleset have changed
- Make the theme's redirect URL reusable
---
#### **Imports**
##### Implement log for import requests (#124033)
**Problem**
- Currently, onboarding and synchronisation are the biggest issues encountered by the consultants (between V8 and V9 and vice versa).
**Solution**
- In V8, create two procedures: sysExternalImportTransactions, sysExternalImportErrors.
- Read from the sysProcessLog and export the data for the request.
- Add a nullable field in sysProcessLog, ExternalRequestId, this field will contain Import.Imports.Id from V9.
- Add the procedures to the sysObjectWhitelist table to be available in the API.
- When the user clicks on export transactions or export errors, make an API call to the above and export the data as normal.
- Move the singular import requests to log an import like the bulk imports do.
- Add status "In Progress" when the import starts.
- Communicate completion of the import from V8 to V9.
##### V9: Import Issue (#132815)
**Problem**
- When providing other data in the import for org level 1 than the default IN01 data, the import fails with the error: The org node to link the user's position to could not be found."

- Add a cast to shortdatestring for datetime and datetime? fields
##### \[Integration\]\[Admin User\]\[People Import\] Import log shows successful but transaction log is empty (#132526)
**Problem**
- Not all import types are developed to export data; therefore, when a user clicks 'User validation report,' it will export but have no data
**Solution**
- Add a new check to validate and ensure the import type is allowed to be validated
---
#### **Tenant/Ruleset Management**
##### System Summary Page (#124038)
**Problem**
- Old V8 installation has documentation on Master Builder, with all client URLs, etc.
- For V9, this seems to have fallen away – is there a way to automatically insert this on Master Builder (Product Table)
**Developer Solution**
- Add a new button on the tools page to access the system summary.
- Create a new page with a table with paging, 50 per page and global search.
- Includes useful information for support (such as Tenant Id, Tenant Name, RulesetId, RulesetName, SystemCloseDate, LoginURL, SupportURL, and ActiveProducts).
- Includes a list of Subscriptions, ActiveUserCount, BaseLicenceCount, and SchemaCreatedMessage.
- Add a gPRC call in the Account Service to do the query with the requested fields.

#### **Performance Management**
##### Manager rating cannot be saved - error message (#133058)

##### Performance Management: Incorrect Total after 10/10 Self-Rating and Error on Submit Final Rating (#131647)
**Problem**
- Due to the increasing number of KPIs and the distribution of their respective weights, there is a potential for precision-related discrepancies during the selection and calculation of the final rating. As a result, the computed value may appear as 10.001 instead of the expected 10.
- The final ratings could not be submitted due to the system not accommodating a score of 100.0000, which resulted in a submission failure
- The scores within ContractPeriods do not round correctly when they round to above 100
**Solution**

**Solution**
- Added table TenantUsageStats with the required fields within the Data Warehouse
---
#### **Notifications**

**Solution**
- Updated tooltip text to "Download".
---
#### **People Management**
##### \[Appointment History\] Reference Name and Surname fields are not marked as required (#131180)
**Problem**
- When adding/editing an employment history record, the save fails if you do not provide the reference name and contract information. This is because it is required/expected on the backend but not on the Modal.
**Solution**
- Make reference name and surname & reference contact required.
##### Issues on People Management Module (#131783)
**Problem**
- When a user searches on People Management, the search filter persists even when the user logs out and logs back in. This confuses sessions, as some results are not available.
**Solution**
- When the user clicks logout, clear the filterCriteria if it exists from the local storage
---
#### **HR Processes**
##### Not All Jobs Positions are Available on the Workflow Reporting Lines (#132320)
**Problem**
- When a position has a termination date in the future it cannot be found when setting up an HR process
**Solution**
- Change the filter in the query to include position in the future and only include users
---

- Add a new culture for en-ZA on V9.
- - Ensure that the necessary translation files are added.
- Ensure that en-ZA can be selected by the user - if the language is published on the ruleset.
- Ensure that translations and date formats still work when en-ZA is used as a language.
---
# Version 9.1.163 (2 June 2025)
#### **Performance Management**
##### Add functionality to delete multiple templates at once (#120577)
**Problem**
- Can only remove one template at a time on the PM Review Setup Templates
- Modal is very small when a selection is required to select templates for bulk deletion
- Translation missing for en-GB
- When the modal is displayed to remove multiple templates, you can click on which then navigates you to the template
**Solution**
- Add a new option to remove multiple templates at once.
- Show a larger modal for Bulk delete templates
- Added Translation for en-GB
- Remove the check to be able to navigate to the template
##### If moderated, show original score when you hover over the gauge as well (#129852)
**Problem**
- When an agreement is moderated, on the overall score, when hovering over the text, the score is viewed within a tooltip, the hit area is a bit small
**Solution**
- Change the tooltip to be displayed over the entire gauge when moderated.
##### Able to save the sections on a setup after deleting all Rating Scales (#129104)
**Problem**
- The user could not save the review setup with the changes made to check for rating scales
- Users could save a review setup when there was no rating scales defined, for example, all were deleted.
- The user could save a review setup without adding a 'Performance' Rating Scale
**Solution**
- Add a check to not validate rating scales for action plan section
- Add a new check to ensure that the rating scales are defined for the active sections before saving, or else it results in a detailed error
- Add a new check to ensure that there are performance rating scales
##### Limit item weights to 3 digits with a max value of 100 (#124145)
**Problem**
- Weight input is not limited to correct values, for example can enter 120 in weight, but only errors when trying to submit
**Solution**
- Limit input to the correct min/max values of the weight percentage while the user enters input
##### Cannot open the Documents page when there are no KPIs (#126063)
**Problem**
- When doing an agreement, and a perspective or KPA is added, when clicking to View Documents, it does nothing and errors as no KPI has been added
**Solution**
- Disable the View Documents button when no KPI has been added when an agreement is being done, and also view a tooltip with a new translation message to first indicate to add a KPI
##### On the preview, the perspective is shown as unknown even when perspectives are not enabled (#120057)
**Problem**
- Unknown text is shown on templates where perspectives are disabled when previewing a template
**Solution**:
- Add a check to not display the Perspective name ('Unknown') when perspectives are disabled
##### "Save" and "Save Add New" have the same translation (#124587)
**Problem**
- Translation for save and saveAddNew had the same translation
**Solution**
- Changed to use a different translation for wording, save and saveAddNew
##### Incorrect error when you submit an agreement containing duplicate items (#124049)
**Problem**
- When adding a duplicate KPI in an agreement, the entire exception is displayed as an error and not a friendly UI error
**Solution**
- Add a new check to show a translation error message
##### Update text on 'submitting objectives' (#128266)
**Problem**
- When the objective settings are confirmed on the modal, the text reads 'be blocked for editing'
**Solution**
- Change the text on the confirmation modal to read 'be locked for editing'
##### Indicate that moderation is in progress (#130384)
**Problem**
- When an agreement is being moderated and saved to be completed later, on the user side within the agreement, it is shown as moderated
**Solution**
- Add a new check that if the moderation is in progress, show correct translations, else default to the moderated translation
##### Performance Management - Keep Action Plan open (#130044)
**Problem**
- Currently, when a period has been approved by the employee and manager, no changes can be made to the Action Plan section
**Solution**
- Change the logic of the Action Plan to allow updates throughout the active Performance Year
- If a review period has been approved by either the employee or the manager, allow the following actions on the Action Plan Section
- Add
- Edit
- Delete
- Copy from previous
- Complete status by the manager
- These actions should be applied to
- KPI Action Plan items
- Ad Hoc Action Plan items
- If the Check-ins period has been reached, also allow the Action Plan to be modified
- When the Performance Year is locked, the Action Plan will close, and no changes will be made
##### Radio buttons not behaving correctly (#121338)
**Problem**
- When adding a new KPA/KPI, the radio buttons do not work correctly when navigating between each toggle
**Solution**
- Fixed check to not overwrite the toggle state
##### Make message more prominent (#129638 & #129639)
**Problem**
- An important message is displayed within the Moderation search function that can be missed by many
**Solution**
- Changed to an alert message, which showcases the message to the user within an info icon
##### Apply the text-area rule for the Goals on view (#120063)
**Problem**
- The text area within the goals of the Action Plan grows as the text increases
- When an action plan is added with a lot of text, the tooltip displays on the left, which makes it difficult to read
**Solution**
- Apply the text-area rule to minimise text with ellipses.
- Move the tooltip to the right to show all text and read clearly
##### Tooltip on Hover for Final Score in English (#124580)
**Problem**
- English text displayed on the tooltip within the dashboard, Final Scores
**Solution**
- Added translation to view
---
#### **Imports**
##### The system does not use the specified org code when importing a new level 1 node (#119899)
Problem
- The system does not use the specified org code when importing a new level 1 node
**Solution**
- Ensure that when importing org nodes, we first check if a code was specified before looking at the auto-generated codes, thereby ensuring that if a code is specified for level 1, it is used.
##### Default the Import option to Performance Management (#113330)
**Problem**
- The import/export modal doesn't, by default, select the current product's imports; it needs to have the current active product selected and the imports for it displayed, depending on where you are in the system.
**Solution**
- Included the ProductCode to the baselayout and send that through to the importexport modal to ensure it correctly selects the correct product for import options.
##### Enable Sage Automated employee import (#129939)
**Problem**
- The PowerShell connector indicated an incorrect validation message.
- When a user leaves the Signify system open for more than 10 hours and then tries to continue their work, they receive the error
**Solution**
- Add the missing passport number field that caused the import to be incorrectly mapped, and receive invalid validation errors
- When the backend services return unauthorised as a status code, redirect the user to the login page rather than giving an infinite error message
---
#### **Data Warehouse**
Send DWH integrity report weekly via DB Mail (#131121)
**Problem**
- The integrity report has been developed and is not used frequently for monitoring purposes
**Solution**
- Send DWH integrity report weekly via DB Mail by creating a new SQL Job
---
#### **Notifications**
##### Styling on Reason for deletion to be standardised (#122689)
**Problem**
- Styling in the delete modal in Main Banner | Inbox | Notification | Exports did not match other standard modals' styling in the system.
**Solution**
- Updated the delete modal to match the standard styles.
##### User unable to send a Welcome Notification (#131852)
**Problem**
- When a user who only has People Admin role tries to send a Welcome Notification an error is displayed. This is because to fetch the template it first needs to fetch the active products. The active products fetch can only be done by Ruleset / Tenant admins.
**Solution**
- Allowed for users with the People Admin role to also retrieve Active Products. Confirmed that the user can still only see relevant areas, the fetch can successfully be made by a People admin without a ruleset/tenant admin role.
---
#### **Report Builder**
##### The order of the sources to be aligned with the database Display Order (#129894)
**Problem**
- The **Data Sources** are not displayed in the Order which has been set in the database under **DisplayOrder**
**Solution**
- Make sure the display order in the DB and front-end is the same
---
#### **Organisational Structure**
##### Errors - & (#131317)
**Problem:**
- When adding an Org Unit, the '&' gets sanitised from the name.
- The config map changes do not work correctly yet.
- Need to add the excluded object properties directly to AppSettings.
**Solution:**
- Add OrgUnitName and Code for the OrgNodeViewModel to the list of excluded sanitisation properties.
##### Errors on Org Structure (#131884)
**Problem**
- The org flat structure path is not working correctly on the root node
**Solution**
- Correct the generation of the org flat path on the root node
- Create the support user on the node IN01
- Add missing org flat path generation for the first user
---
#### **People Management**
##### Add Role Permission: Manage Own Data (#124043)
**Problem**
- A user is not able to update personal details when the particular feature for that item is not enabled, although the user has the "ManageOwnData" permission.
**Solution**
- If a user has the "ManageOwnData" permission, ensure they can update their profile details, even if, according to the product setup, the item cannot be edited.
---
#### **Translations**
##### Translations on Learning Management are not updating (#131968)
**Problem**
- Translations are not working on any cshtml pages and only on react pages
**Solution**
- Updated Translator.cs to include "learningManagement" in the services list.
- Changed UseExternalTranslations to true in both appsettings.Development.json and appsettings.json to utilise external translations in both development and production environments.
---
#### **SigniChat**
##### Adding a new group using the people group which was previously used to be handled (#123358)
**Problem**
- You should never have multiple chat groups for the same people group (and product).
- When you created a chat group which is linked to a people group, which was previously deactivated, a new chat group was created (for the same people group), instead of activating the existing chat, it created a duplicate chat group linked to the same people group.
- You can now activate the disabled chat group, and voila, you have two chat groups for the same people group.
**Solution**
- When creating a chat group for a people group, which was then disabled, activate the existing chat group instead of creating a duplicate.
---
# Version 9.1.162 (2 June 2025)
#### **People Management**
##### Improve People Group Materialisation and management (#130510)
**Problem**
- When a people group has been materialised and a consumer event fails to refresh the people group in a service, there is no way to refresh the users in, for example, Performance Management, without changing the people group.
- When a people group is handled by the SyncMaterialisedPeopleGroupUsersCommand command, there is no locking to prevent multiple consumers from processing the same people groups. This can lead to deadlocks, or at least redundant fetches and updates.
- There is no way to know when the people group were materialised last.
**Suggested Development**
Add a button to the people group summary page to manually force a refresh of the open people group on all services
- The Materialised people group users in the job profiler service are busted and rematerialised
- This should trigger a new event consumed by the job profiler service and then the jp service must trigger the SyncMaterialisedPeopleGroupUsersCommand on all services using gRPC to ensure all services are in sync.
Add a MaterialisedDataLog table to each service
- Columns: Id, created date, edited date, tabletype, status, referenceId
- tabletype: Enum: PeopleGroupUsers, Ruleset, Users, Appointments
- status: Available, Locked
- referenceId: Reference to materialised table e.g. PeopleGroupId
- When the people groups sync, add or update the entry in the table with the reference Id being the people group id.
- Set the status to "locked" when processing a request.
- Other refreshes wait, by checking every 20 seconds and up to 2 minutes, if the people group is Available and then continue refreshing.
- Use the log table to find the tables that have been materialised.
---
#### **Performance Management**
##### Column fields for Evaluations modals not translated (#124581)
**Problem**
- On the agreement, when adding an evaluation, the column headers were not translated into Deutsch.
**Solution**
- Added translation for headings in the Deutsch translation.
##### Able to save the sections on a review setup after deleting all Rating Scales (#129104)
**Problem**
- User could not save review setup with change made to check for rating scales.
- Users could save a review setup when there were no rating scales defined, for example, all were deleted.
- User could save a review setup without adding a 'Performance' Rating Scale.
**Solution**
- Added a check to not validate rating scales for the action plan section.
- Add a new check to ensure that the rating scales are defined for the active sections before saving, or else result in a detailed error.
- Add a new check to ensure that there are performance rating scales
##### The circle for the overall Status icon does not turn green (#129073)
**Problem**
- On the Performance Dashboard, the circle for the Overall Status icon does not turn green after finalising the agreement if the setting to hide all the weights is enabled.
**Solution**
- Added a check for the circle to turn green when the agreement has been finalised.
##### Only display 20 characters of the review period names and add a tooltip on the Performance Management timeline (#128454)
**Problem**
- Review period names are displayed in full length on the dashboard, causing an overlap with the edge of the card.
**Solution**
- Changed to display only the first 20 characters, with an ellipsis text and a tooltip to display the full period name on the dashboard timeline
##### Update wording on 'submitting objectives' (#128266)
**Problem**
- When the objective settings are confirmed on the modal, the text reads 'Please note that the Objective Settings will now blocked for editing'.
**Solution**
- Change the text on the confirmation modal to read 'be locked for editing'.
##### Instructions overlapping "Continue" button (#121399)
**Problem**
- Instructions text overlapping the "Continue" button on the manager's agreement for Objective Setting within the Performance Management Dashboard.
**Solution**
- Add styling to restrict text from overlapping.
##### The hover-over item displays twice when hovering over Action Plan items on KPIs (#120060,120063)
**Problem**
- A duplicate pop-over displays once an Action Plan has been added from a KPI within an agreement.
**Solution**
- Removed duplicate popover and only kept one.
##### Able to delete an agreement when the phase is no longer active (#121573)
**Problem**
- When a period has ended within a review setup, an agreement which has been started can still be deleted.
**Solution**
- Add a check that if the phase has ended, do not show the option to delete the agreement on both Dual and without Dual agreements.
##### Manager side shows "Rate" button if submitted before the employee (#115767)
**Problem**
- On the Manager side, the text 'Rate' is displayed even if the Manager has submitted their scores, and the user has not started yet.
**Solution**
- Change to display View instead of Rate within the case that a User has not started and the Manager has submitted their scores.
---
#### **Recruitment**
##### Error when saving external applicant as employee on Advertisement created directly as an advertised position (#131948)
**Problem**
- When selecting a position during Advertisement creation, the user could select job positions unrelated to any organisational structure, leading to issues later on when appointing an applicant.
**Solution**
- Added a check to only show job positions when they are also found in org positions.
---
#### **Imports**
##### Add exclude from update functionality (#128857)
**Problem**
- When using Sage and other third-party applications, a client does not utilise all the third-party modules, such as OFO codes.
- These codes are maintained directly in Signify via the front-end functionality.
- The user import uses the data received as the source of truth.
- Should a value be empty in the import received, the value in the system is also updated to empty.
- This means that if a field like OFO code has been updated in Signify, it will be cleared with the next import received from the 3rd party.
**Solution**
- Create a master data table for import fields and indicate which fields should be excluded from import, e.g. the system is the source of truth.
- Master data ship as empty, add columns to be excluded from the front-end.
---
#### **Main Dashboard**
##### HR Processes widget not showing even if set to active (#130867)
**Problem**
- The HR Processes widget did not display when the logged-in user had no actions to perform (in other words, they had none of their own requests or requests to attend to).
**Solution**
- Display an 'empty' widget when there are no actions to perform.
---
#### **Report Builder**
##### Signing is not going through on assessment acceptance with a moderator (#131820)
**Problem**
- Exceptions are thrown when the same Scoped DbContext is used in multiple threads/tasks, causing the signing to get stuck in "inprogress" status.
**Solution**
- Create a scope for services for each task or thread running when signing documents.
---
#### **Data Warehouse**
##### Add datasource field description (#131323)
**Problem**
- From the front-end, it is not known exactly what the purpose of each field in the data dictionary is.
**Solution**
- Add a Description NVARCHAR(MAX) field to reportbuilder.DataSourceFields - Developer on V9 on reportbuilder migrations.
- Update fields in the reportbuilder.DataSourceFields with description - only where it is not straightforward.
- Create a new report category "System".
- Create a report to display Table, Field, Field Description, Type, Length, and Display Order.
- Select only tables with fields where the table and the field are not archived and where the field is selectable.
---
#### **Tenant/Ruleset Management**
##### Make products and system menus active according to subscription (#116680)
**Problem**
- When creating a new Tenant &/or Ruleset, all products and the system menus are inactive.
**Suggestion**
- When creating a Tenant or a new Ruleset from blank, make the products and system menus active according to the Tenant's subscription.
**Development**
- When creating a ruleset, enable the products under ruleset management per the purchased license.
- When the ruleset is already in use and a new license is purchased, the corresponding product should not automatically be enabled then, only during creation.

# Version 9.1.161 (2 June 2025)
#### **HR Processes**
##### Upload file duplicated 115 times on the list of file uploads (#131114)
**Problem**
- Hr process request displays many duplicate file uploads.
**Solution**
- Ensure duplicate file uploads are not displayed by fixing the join on the query which retrieved the files.
##### Consecutive step approver update (#126525)
**Problem**
- When a user who is the Approver for two consecutive steps clicks to approve the first step, the second step should be automatically approved. Therefore, the button for the second step should be disabled and not show a hand cursor to reflect this behaviour.
**Solution**
- Adding a new list which tracks the usernames of the previous people who have been requested to review an HR Process. If this user is already in the list (They were requested to review multiple times) give the second or third, or nth Approve button for this user a disabled appearance/functionality.
---
#### **Master Data**
##### Unique constraints on Master Data (#127350)
**Problem**
- Proper(user-friendly) snack message did not appear when trying to save duplicate master data, due to the master data interceptor only being used when master data translations is turned on. I use the interceptor to look for SQL duplicate object errors.
**Solution**
- Ensure that the master data interceptor is always used, but that it only tries to translate the data if the setting is turned on.
---
#### **People Groups**
##### Learners not in subgroup (#130686)
**Problem**
- The additional services People Group sync from V9 only return active users. Terminated users must also be included in the list.
**Solution**
- Include the isForDisplay property on the PeopleGroupUserFetch to ensure that all users, regardless of status, are returned to the V8 sync.
---
#### **Data Warehouse**
##### Add a task to add Data Dictionary joins (#131144)
**Problem**
- Data Dictionary joins are added manually with deployments to different environments
**Solution**
- Automate the process by adding a task to add Data Dictionary joins in the DWH packages
---
#### **Performance Management**
##### Objective Settings Queries (#128628)
**Problem**
- ContractPeriodSection Weight fields are not available within DWH
**Solution**
- Added ContractPeriodSection Weight fields within V9 DWH (pdmContractPeriods and pdmContractPeriodSectionItems)
---
#### **Report Builder**
##### Allow report builder admins to set certain filter criteria fields as drop-downs in a report (#129916)
**Problem**
- There are no drop-downs that can be used as filters on end-user reports
**Solution**
- Add a step to the DWH SSIS packages
- As a Report Builder Administrator, I want to have a new operator available named is equal to (from list)
- As a Report User, I want to select the dropdown with the available values

#### **General**
##### Error screen wording changes (#130575)
**Problem**
- Requested an additional text to be added to the general error page (SVG file).
**Solution**
- Updated text as well as improved formatting to preserve neatness.
**Problem**
- Request to update the contact text in people management.
**Solution**
- Altered translations for multiple languages to match the request.
**Problem**
- Contract print preview breaks for unfinalized contracts because it expects there to be a premoderation score.
**Solution**
- Correctly handle the selection of the premoderation score to be null when the contract is not yet finalised.

# Version 9.1.159 (29 April 2025)
#### **People Management**
##### ESS issues (#130616)
**Problem**
- When saving user information on People Management, an intermittent "Error occurred" snack is displayed
- The problem is that user reporting lines are checked for changes, but all people groups are busted for the ruleset
- This means that every time user information is updated for any user (or if nothing is changed and the Admin only clicks on Save), all the people groups are cleared from the cache and deleted from JobProfiler.MaterialisedPeopleGroupUsers
- This creates additional race conditions when the PeopleGroupUpdated event is emitted, causing all services to try and refresh the MaterialisedPeopleGroupUsers table on JP, as well as when the page reloads, it needs to refetch the PeopleGroupUsers since the cache is empty
**Solution**
- Changed the User reporting line upsert to only bust the reporting line and people group caches if any changes have occurred, and to only bust for the specifically changed reporting line types
- Only bust the relevant PeopleGroupIds for the reporting line managerIds, not all people groups
---
#### **Performance Management**
##### Performance Management Errors (#131139)
**Problem**
1. When doing the initial moderation and directly clicking on approve & recalculate, the moderation scores were not saved first, when you then unapprove the moderations, the moderation state is broken.
2. On General Comments of a contract, the manager can click and view the person's comment which opens a modal that is editable. Saving then saves the exact comment for the person to the manager's comment. Same happens the other way around.
**Solution**
1. Fixed the moderation approve & recalculate to always correctly save the moderation scores since their could also be interim changes. And on unapproval to correctly reset the contract moderation status.
2. Changed the general comment modal to be not editable when it is the person viewing the manager's comments or vice versa
---
#### **Job Profiler**
##### Issue on New Appointment (#130526)
**Problem**
- When adding a new (second or next) appointment or doing a transfer, the appointment fails with an invalid appointment start date error.
- First issue is that the error is misleading as the problem should reflect that the end date overlaps the start date of the next appointment, secondly the check performed was incorrectly comparing the previous appointment's start date to be less than the next appointment's start date, which should normally always be the case so every appointment fails.
**Solution**
- Changed translation to be more specific to the actual error/check.
- Corrected the check to compare the current appointment end date against the new appointment start date.
---
#### **Notifications**
##### Notfications - Make sending welcome emails more robust and performant (#130837)
**Problem**
- The grpc channel size is too small when the list of users receiving the welcome email is more than 7500
- The welcome email fails should any user's reset URL fails to generate
**Solution**
- Add a setting to give the option to increase the size, should it be needed. This is not part of the Helm charts, as it should not be
Add tries to send the notification with an empty reset URL rather than failing the entire batch
---
#### **People Groups**
##### People Groups: Display incorrect number if people on "Custom" (#130594)
**Problem**
- On the People Group list, the Included Users count does not match up with the actual number of users displayed when viewing the PG summary, This is because on the list page, terminated users still included on the PG are taken into account, as well as users that have both been included and excluded. It needs to show the same counts as you would see on the summary view.
**Solution**
- Modify the included users count selection to only check for active appointments and to not include users that have also been excluded.
---
#### **SigniChat**
##### When first opening a new chat, the collapse button is missing (#130584)
**Problem**
- When opening a new chat, the close button does not show as it formed part of the search section (which should be hidden when opening a new chat).
**Solution**
- Ensure that the close button still displays when opening a new chat.
---
# Version 9.1.158 (29 April 2025)
#### **Imports**
##### Make "Approve Agreements" Label clickable (#128953)
**Problem**
- The label next to the checkbox is not clickable
**Solution**
- Changed label to also trigger the checkbox
##### Create SQL notification for support (#124083)
**Problem**
- The notification was not working for import errors
**Solution**
- Changed import error notification to enable propagation of master data
---
#### **People Management**
##### \[Roles\]\[Admin\]: Prevent user from Deleting the Default (#129276)
**Problem**
- The system allows an Admin to delete a Default People Group Role
**Solution**
- Prevent an Admin from Deleting a Default People Group Role
##### "Can Manage People" not selected by Default on a Default Role (#129381)
**Problem**
- The system does not tick the "Can Manage People" by default on a default People Group Role.
**Solution**
- Enable the checkbox by default on a default People Group Role
##### Multiple problems on ESS screens (#130616)
**Problem**
- When saving user information on People Management, there is an intermittent "Error occurred" snack displayed. The problem is that user reporting lines are checked for changes, but then all people groups are busted for the ruleset. This means that every time user information is updated for any user (or if nothing is changed and Admin only clicks on Save) all the people groups are cleared from the cache and deleted from JobProfiler.MaterialisedPeopleGroupUsers. This creates additional race conditions when the PeopleGroupUpdated event is emited, causing all services to try and refresh the MaterialisedPeopleGroupUsers table on JP, as well as when the page reloads it needs to refetch the PepleGroupUsers since the cache is empty.
**Solution**
- Changed the User reporting line upsert to only bust the reporting line and people group caches if any changes have occurred, and to only bust for the specifically changed reporting line types. Only bust the relevant PeopleGroupIds for the reporting line managerIds not all people groups.
---
#### **Organisational Structure**
##### Org Structure: Store calculated org path per node (#128856)
**Problem**
- Store calculated org path per node as JobProfiler.fncCalculateOrgPath(@orgid INT) is not performant enough for larger datasets
**Solution**
- Store calculated org path in table OrgNodes table and read from this field instead of using fncCalculateOrgPath in queries throughout system
- Create migration to add new column FlattenedOrgPath to orgnodes. Run recursive query to update existing data
- Create new command to update org path of specific nodeid and its children when creating new or updating entity.
---
#### **Imports**
##### PaySpace Imports (#129229)
- Added OFO codes to Payspace imports
---
#### **Ruleset Management**
##### Change of preferred People Group on My Profile | My Account not applied immediately (#128855)
**Problem**
- Active people group was not set when updating the default or preferred people group.
**Solution**
- Ensure that the active people group of the user is updated when updating their preferred people group.
---
#### **Notification**
##### Schedule Setup: User can set a Once-Off custom schedule to time already passed (#96569)
**Problem**
- On the notification schedule setup page, the end date could be in the past or before the start date.
**Solution**
- Ensure that the end date cannot be in the past or before the start date.
---
#### **Data Warehouse**
##### Review and adjust data sources on Report Builder (#128366)
**Problem**
- Data sources need to be reviewed and improved
**Solution**
- Implemented improvements within Data Dictionary DataSources/DataSourceFields
---
#### **Salary Review**
##### \[Salary Review\] Page perpetually loading (#130596)
**Problem**
- The iframe is unable to load on all V8 pages except LMS
**Solution**
- Added `Html.Raw` function to prevent Razor from splitting the string into multiple attributes
---
# Version 9.1.157 (29 April 2025)
#### **Learning Management**
##### Delete Button for Interventions Only showing on the latest Record (#130180)
**ProblemThe**
- Delete/Trash icon is not shown for all training interventions in a cycle.
**Solution**
- Remove script and markup that only allowed the last training intervention in the list to be removed.
##### Remove sandbox on V9 (#129502)
**Problem**
- Documents that should be embedded on pathways are not working because of the sandbox rule from V9 Iframe
**Solution**
- Load sandbox rule conditionally for the MENU\_PORTAL\_USER\_LMSPORTAL module
---
#### **People Management**
##### Managers cannot see their employees in the Performance Management system (#130434)
**Problem**
- The update of the people group query causes deadlocks
**Solution**
- Only update when the status has changed, and add WITH(ROWLOCK, UPDLOCK)
- Simplify the distinct for the inserts and remove the CTE
##### Double Scroll Bar appears after navigating across Tabs (#126461)
**Problem**
- A double scrollbar was displayed on some pages due to overflow on the body.
**Solution**
- Fix the double scroll by hiding the overflow globally on the body.
##### Country/Province set as "Not Required" but is being displayed as Mandatory (#128735)
**Problem**
- The system currently shows "Country/Province" as a required field, even though it is set to "Not Required."
**Solution**
- We will update the system to ensure that the "Province" field is no longer marked as mandatory. This involves adjusting the underlying data settings and applying an update to reflect the change.
##### Add Role Permission: Manage Own Data (#124043)
P&S
---
#### **Report Builder**
##### Ordering to be aligned with the database Display Order (#129894)
P&S
##### Column order specified on the Preview is not applied to the Full Report or Exported Report (#128854)
**Problem**
- When the user rearranges the column order, especially if the rearranged columns are more than one index away from each other.
- The order is inaccurate regarding what is displayed on the frontend.
- Each time a column is reordered (Moves an index), an AJAX call is made, and all changes after it are inaccurate.
**Solution**
- Collecting all the requests the user makes by waiting for a timer to finish, each time a reorder happens, the timer is reset (to ensure all changes will be sent).
- When the timer runs out, one AJAX call is made as a batch for the Server to handle.
- The server receives a list of requests and loops through them to ensure each column reorder is processed.
- Please note that after the previous code review changes, only columns which actually moved an index are sent to the server side for processing.
##### Ordering to be aligned with the database Display Order (#129893)
**Problem**
- When creating a new report, the list of data sources does not appear in the correct order.
- It does not display according to the DisplayOrder column inside the DB.
**Solution**
- We made sure the data sources are displayed in the correct order by updating how they are retrieved.
- A sorting rule was added to ensure the list follows the intended sequence.
- Additionally, we included **DisplayOrder** in various steps where data is added or retrieved to maintain consistency.
##### 'Is in list' operator shows Values selection across all tenants (#130008)
**Problem**
- When a user creates a new report and adds fields to the filter section, selecting the "is in list" operator returns data across all tenants instead of filtering correctly.
**Solution**
- To ensure that only data from the specified TenantID and RulesetID is retrieved, these values should be added as parameters in the SQL Stored Procedure.
- The filtering condition should then be applied within the query to restrict results accordingly.
---
#### **SigniChat**
##### Datatables warning error when clicking on the <--- back button (#129666)
**Problem**
- The error occurs when viewing your chats, as not all are returned to the user.
**Solution**
- Ensure that an error does not occur and make sure that all the chats for the user are returned.
---
#### **Ruleset Management**
##### Mentoring and Coaching are not available on the System menu (#129947)
**Problem**
- Mentoring and coaching could not be enabled or disabled because it was linked to its own product code, for which a product does not yet exist.
**Solution**
- I linked the mentoring and coaching URL back to LearningManagement (to which it was previously linked anyway)
##### Redirect tabs not on the current session's ruleset to the login page (#128356)
**Problem**
- When a tab is open and a user logs into a new ruleset in the same browser on a different tab with the same domain, they receive the following.
[](https://signature.signifyhr.co.za/uploads/images/gallery/2025-04/3cyCJrK9cxktjm1L-image.png)
- When clicking okay, the page is reloaded for the current ruleset's data.
- This is confusing for some users as they expect the other ruleset's data here.
**Solution**
- Rather than reloading the page, redirect the page to the login page of the previous ruleset on that theme
- e.g Url.ActionLink("Index", "App", new { rulesetCode = ruleset.Code, themeKey });
- Change location. Reload the following file to redirect the theme URL of the previous ruleset
---
#### **Notifications**
##### Changes to the template, not being propagated (#128679)
**Problem**
- New templates and schedules on ruleset 1 are not propagateable.
**Solution**
- Ensure new templates and schedules on ruleset 1 are propagateable.
---
#### **Imports**
##### As a person with access to Appointment History, I want to see the Start Date in Group and Company fields (#122770)
**Business Rules:**
- The Start Date in Group can be any date in the past - The imports allows this, but the front-end has validation that says that this cannot be earlier than the first appointment date. We can't expect a new client to capture the person's entire work history therefore, they should be allowed to capture a Start Date in Group that is earlier than the Start Date in Position. It cannot be after the first appointment date.
- Start Date in Company works correctly, the only validation is that it is not earlier than the Start Date in Group. We are not going to validate it against the appointment date at this time. (Currently, the Start Date in Position can be earlier than the Start Date in Company)
##### Validation Report not in the same format as the import (#128489)
**Problem**
- The columns on the import validation report did not properly group the columns (as with the import file)
**Solution**
- Properly group the columns.
---
#### **Tenant Management**
##### Hovering over the Tenant URL and clicking to copy does not copy the URL (#130061)
**Problem**
- In the tenant management system, when users clicked on a URL, it showed a message saying "Click to copy," but it didn’t actually copy the link to the clipboard.
**Solution**
- I fixed the issue by adding a function that properly copies the URL when clicked. Now, when users click the link, it is automatically copied, making it easier to paste elsewhere.
##### Time to be displayed on the system, Close Date shown on Description tab (#129940)
**Problem**
- There is no expiry time on the System Close Date
**Solution**
- Add the time (11:59 - i.e one second to midnight) on the display of the **System Close Date** as it does for the **Expiry Date**.
##### Licence Expiry Warning contains wrong Licence Type (#129855)
**Problem**
- Previously, all expiring subscriptions were incorrectly labelled as "Fixed/Monthly Subscription" because the text was hardcoded, meaning it didn't change based on the actual subscription type.
**Solution**
- Now, the subscription type is dynamically displayed based on the correct SubscriptionType field in the system, ensuring accuracy for each user.
##### Login Page Link on the System Setup Complete notification shows 'Page cannot be found' error (#129856)
**Problem**
- When a new tenant was created and an email was sent, the login URL in the email would incorrectly show the path "/app/app/" twice.
**Solution**
- I removed the extra "/app/" part that was being added in the notification system.
---
#### **Performance Management**
##### As a person viewing the Print View of the Agreement, I want to have the More Information and Moderation sections collapsed (#128404)
- Add moderation information to Contract Print Preview, add new, more info and moderation accordions on Print Preview
##### The & symbol is displayed as "&" throughout the contract (#129768)
**Problem**
- The sanitisation that was added to all PUT | POST | PATCH requests on Webmvc to prevent malicious input values is also stripping out valid values like '&' and '>' and '<', which can be used in comments and on PM section item names.
**Solution**
- Added a list of excluded settings to the SanitizationConfiguration that will look for specific objects and then exclude specific properties from being sanitised.
---
#### **Organisational Structure**
##### Org Structure: Store calculated org path per node (#128856)
**Problem**
- Store the calculated org path per node as JobProfiler.fncCalculateOrgPath(@orgid INT) is not performant enough for larger datasets
**Solution**
- Store calculated org path in table OrgNodes table and read from this field instead of using fncCalculateOrgPath in queries throughout the system
- Create a migration to add a new column, FlattenedOrgPath, to orgnodes. Run the recursive query to update existing data
- Create a new command to update the org path of a specific node ID and its children when creating a new entity or updating an entity.
---
# Version 9.1.156 (7 April 2025)
#### **Performance Management**
##### Auto copy error (#129765)
**Problem**
- Auto copy auto approval fails when Action Plans are enabled.
**Solution**
- Exclude the AP section from the validation before the auto-approval happens
##### Indicate that all fields are mandatory (#129755)
**Problem**
- Required fields for moderation were not displayed making it unclear what is needed.
- When only ticking an item as moderated but then having other items which are correctly validated the react validation passes, and an incorrect error is displayed "failed to save"
**Solution**
- Add scss and class handling to indicate which fields are required.
- Fix validation not checking that All moderated items must pass.
##### Original score changes when you save the moderated score (#130375)
**Problem**
- The final rating displays the actual final rating value which gets overwritten when you moderate the item to the moderated value, then making it display the moderated rating as the final rating.
**Solution**
- Changed that the final rating column always displays the pre-moderated final rating
##### Moderated labels not shown when you impersonate (#130374)
**Problem**
- The employee dashboard is showing calibrated instead of moderated when contract moderations have been approved.
**Solution**
- Fix the employee dashboard to correctly display that contract has been moderated.
##### The moderator cannot unapprove the agreement after approving it (#130379)
**Problem**
- When QA is not required and the moderator approves the moderation the Change button is disabled, the moderator cannot then change or revert the moderation.
**Solution**
- Do not disable the Change button for moderation when QA is required and a QA score has not been provided.
---
#### **Organisational Structure**
##### The system is Duplicating Org Name (#129973)
**Problem**
- The Org name is displayed twice on the Org Builder Screen.
**Solution**
- Removed additional div that displays the org name
---
#### **Tenant Management**
##### Unable to create a new tenant (#130349)
**Problem**
- The permission call added for 129326 - \[%V9-Performance Management%\] - Changed moderation permissions to be excluded by default (#8599) required an authenticated identity service when creating and updating user roles
- The identity service's update's edited users are saved as unknown
- Permissions for the first tenant user get updated before the tenant administrator is created
**Solution**
- Add an anonymous endpoint to update user permissions
- Send through the edited users from the consumer message
- Reorder the initialise command of the tenant to create the user before handling the identity creation
- Add AllowAnonymous filter on anonymous methods of the ruleset process
---
#### **Notifications**
##### Own SMTP sender details being used even though RS1 details are selected for sending emails (#129364)
**Problem**
- When turning off the "Use Own SMTP" setting and saving, then turning it back on, the system would reset the sender email to **master@signify.co.za** instead of keeping the previously used email.
**Solution**
- A new field was added to store the last sender email used, so when "Use Own SMTP" is re-enabled, it restores the correct email instead of resetting.
---
#### **HR Processes**
##### Inactive Workflows are Still Seen by the Bot (#130062)
**Problem**
- Cannot change active process code to inactive process code
- Can activate a process with the same code as an existing active process
**Solution**
- Correct update check
- Add validation when activating a process for a used active code
---
# Version 9.1.155 (7 April 2025)
#### **SigniChat**
##### Datatables warning error when clicking on the <--- back button (#129666)
---
#### **Learning Management**
##### Inform the user where to find the exported list of recipients (#123803)
**Problem**
- Currently, when you export the list of recipients or people who won't receive notifications, you only get a message "Saved Successfully". User won't know what this means.
**Solution**
- Added the link to the export page on the snack message
##### When Multiple Comments are added, Save creates formatting issues with large Gaps (#129623)
**Problem**
- When selecting preconfigured comments, the User can add multiple and they appear to be formatted correctly and economically initially. However, after saving the Marksheet, upon reload, many additional empty lines are added which makes the sheet difficult to read.
**Solution**
- Resolve the gap on top of mark sheet comments by resizing rows on load and save
##### When Marking Learners as Absent, if Send Notifications is clicked but cancelled Endless Load Logo Loops over Interface (#129847)
**Problem**
- The loading screen is shown indefinitely on the attendance register.
**Solution**
- Removed loading variables from the attendance list and attendance modal
##### Teacher not able to View Marksheet and Attendance (#129069)
**Problem**
- The pathway groups linked to a subject can be used on another subject.
- The marks page breaks due to ambiguous start date
**Solution**
- Add usage to query and gRPC to filter on the subject model
- Correct query table aliases
- The stardate validation is only at the domain level and not on the front end
- Could not replicate the editing of the name issue
---
#### **Imports**
##### No errors exported (#129226)
**Problem**
- When working on a project locally, clicking a link or button correctly takes users to the right page.
- However, in the testing environment, the same action leads to an error or a broken page.
- This happens because the system doesn’t recognize extra parts in the web address, like `/master/` or `/herculia/`, which are unique to different environments.
**Solution**
- The redirection logic was updated to recognize and include the correct base address for each environment.
- This ensures that users are always directed to the right page, no matter where the system is running.
---
#### **Translations**
##### Fix the translation of the page heading (#129839)
**Problem**
- The global header displays the translation key on the moderation screen.
- I found that the way it calculates the correct translation to use on the SPA pages relies on the 'app' portion of the URL being exact (case-sensitive); otherwise, it does not correctly determine the translated value.
- Eg spa/performanceManagement/ resolves translation correctly, but spa/performancemanagement/ does not
**Solution**
- Fixed the case of the redirect on the moderate / qa buttons on the moderation search to match the translation key case.
---
#### **Performance Management**
##### Comments mandatory on Ratings and Evaluations (#129585) - New functionality
- A new column has been added to the Review Setup | Sections | Performance Rating Scale
- Required Comments
- When a rating scale has been marked as required, the comments on the agreement are also required
- This is also the case when evaluations need to be completed
- The import will give an error when the rating has been completed and not the comment
##### Periods are shown in reverse order (#130060)
**Problem**
- On the contract print preview, there is no ordering on the contract periods leading to periods being displayed in the incorrect order.
**Solution**
- Add order by DisplayOrder to the query to have contract periods displayed in same order as on the dashboard
---
#### **People Management**
##### After saving a Secondary Appointment the system remains on the Appointment page (#129460)
**Problem**
- After adding/editing an appointment on the people profile page, it does not redirect back to the appointment page.
**Solution**
- Ensure it redirects back to the appointment page.
##### People Group Search does not work as expected (#130069)
**Problem**
- People Group Search does not work as expected
**Solution**
- The search did not always work, because the name was calculated, while the search only worked on the "name" property.
- Make sure that the search works on the calculated name.
##### The ribbon shown behind the Profile icon and the tooltip remains on the page (#129641)
**Problem**
- The "My Manager" Ribbon was hidden behind other elements on the card, making it difficult to see.
**Solution**
- Its display priority was increased slightly so that it appears on top of the other elements.
##### Prevent the user from Deleting a System Module Role without the Acknowledge toggle being switched On (#129274)
**Problem**
- The system does not prevent a user from deleting a record without the Acknowledge toggle being switched On.
**Solution**
- The system does not prevent a user from deleting a record without the Acknowledge toggle being switched On.
---
#### **HR Processes**
##### Inactive Workflows are Still Seen by the Bot (#130062)
**Problem**
- When submitting a request for a code that was deleted and then recreated the code is seen as deleted
**Solution**
- When retrieving the active hr process for the code only retrieve the process that has not been deleted
- When creating a new HR process command only check the code on none deleted codes
- When editing an HR process ensure the same code as an existing process cannot be used
**Areas Affected**
- Submitting a new HR process
- Creating a new HR process with the same code as a deleted HR Process
- Updating an existing HR process code to another code that is already used
---
#### **API**
##### API: ListUsersExport not returning all or correct information (#126458)
**Problem**
- The Occupational Category and Job Grade are not available on the API.
**Solution**
- Added the two fields to the API call as requested.
---
#### **Notifications**
##### Should be allowed to save "From Email Address" as empty (#128633)
**Problem**
- The problem is that when you save a template on Ruleset 1, the field is filled in with the default address configured on Ruleset 1. However, when you create a new ruleset for a client, this email address is copied to the new ruleset, which prevents certain emails, like the subscription emails, from going out.
**Solution**
- Ruleset 1 can now save blank email addresses for templates
---
#### **Ruleset Management**
##### Unable to create a ruleset using the Copy function (#129692)
**Problem**
- When copying a ruleset the PM template copy fails when trying to insert Review Setup Section items, this happens when there are items with the same name and type used on more than 1 perspective. (It is possible to for example have 2 custom KPAs both called 'Key Area' under the same section, because they are custom they are different). This presented an issue on the copy where it was only creating 1 Section Item and then trying to assign the ID to both KPAs on the template which breaks the foreign key constraint. Similar scenario for KPI (L3) items.
**Solution**
- Had to fix/modify two places, firstly on the template copy within the same ruleset (from the review setup admin screen), this still had an issue where it would like the same custom section items across 2 different templates, resulting in changes on the one affecting the other. Followed the same approach as on contract copy to ALWAYS create custom section items as new.
- A similar fix/modification on the ruleset PM copy, with regards to the template section items, changed it to bulk create all the custom items for the section first and then assign the relevant Ids.

# Version 9.1.154 (7 April 2025)
#### **Learning Management**
##### When Marking Learners as Absent, if Send Notifications is clicked but cancelled Endless Load Logo Loops over Interface (#129847)
**Problem**
- The loading screen is shown indefinitely on the attendance register.
**Solution**
- Removed loading variables from the attendance list and attendance modal
##### Confirmation on Send Notification for Absent Learners Modal Status is referencing the incorrect Email Locations (#129608)
**Problem**
- Custom to email recipient data was not applied because the parameter name was incorrect
**Solution**
- Fix parameter name and also handle cases where the custom email field is whitespace
##### On Save Button, Click Deselect Current Cell to Ensure Field Save (#129363)
**Problem**
- Edits on the mark sheet do not commit when clicking the save button without leaving cell edit mode first
**Solution**
- Commit values to the mark sheet on the save button even when the mark sheet is still in edit mode
---
#### **Imports**
##### Import from PaySpace (#128700)
**Problem**
- When the end date received from Payspace is equal the the start date which is the case with enrolments the record is rejected.
- When the termination reason is not available in the case of the above case the record is rejected.
- When an appointment is updated in Payspace the user receives a new position ID which causes a new position to be created in Signify for each update of the appointment.
**Solution**
- Remove the end date >= start date pre-import validation
- Remove the termination required when the end date is provided pre-import validation
- Change the position code to a concatenation of the organisation title and the employee id. This creates a position with a name per employee rather than per appointment change. This means that positions will not be reused should the employee transfer to a new position in Payspace
##### Cleanup duplicate records (#128477)
**Problem**
- When an appointment is updated in Payspace the user receives a new position ID which causes a new position to be created in Signify for each update of the appointment.
**Solution**
- Change the position code to a concatenation of the organisation title and the employee id. This creates a position with a name per employee rather than per appointment change. This means that positions will not be reused should the employee transfer to a new position in Payspace
---
#### **People Groups**
##### Grouped condition for reporting lines not working (#129613)
**Problem**
- When selecting a reporting line for custom grouping an error is given and no reporting lines are displayed.
**Solution**
- Included missing variable in SQL that loads the PeopleGroupReportingLine objects
##### The summary page is blank after creating a new Custom group and adding an org condition (#129079)
---
#### **Organisational Structure**
##### When the Org name is too long the (people, Vacancy, Inactive) does not appear (#129186)
**Problem**
- The organisation's name was not being displayed in full and the amount of persons and vacancies were hidden when a name is too long.
**Solution**
- Always displayed the vacancies and persons and showed the organisation's name in full in the tooltip

#### **People Management**
##### Informational displaying incorrectly calculated year/month count (#128994)
**Problem**
- An employee's termination date is not taken into account when calculating how long they've been in a position
**Solution**
- Used employee's termination date to calculate duration in position if employee has been terminated

#### **Notifications**
##### Emails are still being sent after the Tenant has reached expiry and close dates (#129519)

#### **Performance Management**
##### Final Review - Autocopy error (#129765)
**Problem**
- When auto-copy is enabled and the section is set to auto-distribute there is a scenario where the weights are not automatically distributed (the assumption is that it will be distributed during submission). On the auto copy auto approval it checks whether the weights are valid for all items in each section, finds these items that are not auto-distributed and still have a weight of 0% and does not auto approve the contract OS.
**Solution**
- When the auto-copy auto approval happens check if the section needs to be auto-distributed and always redistribute the weights before validating them for that section. This ensures that always on auto copy approval if the section is set to auto distribute it will redistribute the weights for all items according to the relevant L1 & L2s if applicable.

# Version 9.1.153 (7 April 2025)
#### **Imports**
##### ADMIN Register (#129238)
**Problem**
- The All People group is synced with an empty name to V8 and created as a subgroup with no name
**Solution**
- Corrected the function that calculated the names of the people group
---
#### **Learning Management**
##### Teacher not able to View Marksheet and Attendance (#129069)
**Problem**
- The pathway groups linked to a subject can be used on another subject.
- The marks page breaks due to ambiguous start date
**Solution**
- Add usage to query and gRPC to filter on the subject model
- Correct query table aliases
- The stardate validation is only at the domain level and not on the front end
- Could not replicate the editing of the name issue
---
# Version 9.1.152 (7 April 2025)
#### **Learning Management**
##### Pathways: Teacher not able to View Marksheet and Attendance (#129069)
**Problems**
1. When a class group linked to a subject has comments or attendance records linked to it, the group cannot be removed from the subject
2. When a subgroup is delinked from a pathway and synced to V9, the deleted pathway groups are not deleted in V9 and can be linked to new subjects.
3. Pathways groups that were linked with a deleted pathway group still show a link on the subject even though it has been removed from the pathway and no longer exists
4. When editing a subject and saving from the modal the data does not save
5. When editing a cycle and saving from the modal the data does not save
6. A subject's end data can be saved as a date before the start date
7. A cycle's end data can be saved as a date before the start date
8. A cycle can start before the subject started
9. A cycle can end after the subject has ended
10. The weights of the cycle or the interventions can be set to more than 100%
11. You cannot delete a training intervention from a cycle where marks have already been assigned
12. When a user is appointed from the front end or import the user is not materialised in the learning service
**Solutions**
1. Add soft deletes to the subject pathway groups to allow deletion when linked to comments or attendance. Should the same pathway group be linked to the subject again where the group was deleted from then the previously removed group will be undeleted and the attendance/comments will be available again.
2. When syncing the data from V8 and the subgroup is no longer linked to a pathway mark the pathway group as deleted. Should the subgroup be linked to the same pathway again the existing pathway group will be undeleted.
3. Amend all queries to not display the pathway groups that as been deleted as linked items on the subject.
4. Correct the form submitted when saving on the subject model
5. Correct the form submitted when saving on the cycle modal
6. Add domain exceptions to validate the subject dates
7. Add domain exceptions to validate the cycle dates
8. Add domain exceptions to the max weights
9. Implement the soft delete on training interventions linked to a cycle
10. Add the missing appointment columns in materialised users and add the consumers to materialise the appointment data also when changed
---
#### **Import**
##### Users (administrators) have blank subgroups linked to their user profiles which are also set as their preferred subgroup (#129238)
**Problem**
- The All People group is synced with an empty name to V8 and created as a subgroup with no name
**Solution**
- Corrected the function that calculated the names of the people group
---
#### **HR Processes**
##### The claims are not being processed (#129685)
**Problem**
- When submitting an Hr Process Request the process fails, on the logs, it is indicated unauthenticated.
- After investigations it was determined that it fails only when the Position Approval Level type is selected.
- When this is the type then the query to fetch the user details for the approval level fails due to a missing column on the dapper query.
- This failure bubbles up to the MVC that originally made the call and the MVC then tries to load the error page which fails with unauthenticated when trying to read the RulesetId, masking the original problem.
**Solution**
- Corrected the dapper query to select the additional required column.
- Also added additional error logging on the hr process submit to better log on JobProfiler when there is an error that occurs.
---
#### **Performance Management**
##### Display only the first 2 Decimal Points for Average Rating Score (#126335)
**Problem**
- When viewing the evaluation summary the Max, Min and Avg do not limit the number of decimal places
**Solution**
- Implemented a limit of two decimal places
##### Enable the editing of an uploaded document (#114656)
**Problem**
- When a document has been uploaded, you cannot edit it.
**Solution**
- Added modal to update file and title
---
#### **People Management**
##### Add card view counter (#126052)
**Problem**
- The direct subordinate count should show on the people management dashboard on each user card
**Solution**
- Implemented changes to queries as well as dashboard card to show the direct subordinates as well
##### Rename headings on Reporting Lines (#125944)
- On User Permissions, click on the button Reporting Lines, rename headings
[](https://signature.signifyhr.co.za/uploads/images/gallery/2025-03/eAQnTvu8zuNCq4SI-image.png)
1. Rename 1st column from “People Reporting To” to “People Group Name”
2. In the 1st column, add the text “People Reporting To” in front of every name (which will be the name of the People Group that is created).
3. In the Position column, remove the code in brackets, and show it on hover.
4. To save more space, show the Org path as the last +-30 characters, with on hover the full path.
**Problem**
1. There are areas in V9 that still use **IN @{Ids}** when querying the database. When there are more than 2100 IDs the query breaks because of a SQL limitation.
2. MaterialisedPeopleGroupUsers used as a list of userids
**Solution**
1. Replace ALL INSTANCES in the system where IN @{Ids} are used with DapperInBatched
- Example where it has been replaced.
- The developer assigned should look for all instances where IN @ is used.
- And please test all changes made.
- Where it is used to filter people by a list of users from a peoplegroup it should be replaced by a direct join on MaterialisedPeopleGroupUsers and the in removed.
- Remove all temp tables where an insert is done for user-id and replace with a dapper batch to spare the execution time of thousands of inserts.
---
#### **SigniChat**
##### Adding a new group using people group which was previously used to be handled (#123358)
**Problem**
- If a user is added or removed from a people group, the chat group recipients are not synced.
- If a new chat group is created for a people group that already has a chat group, it only opens the existing chat.
**Solution**
- Added a sync to the chat group recipients.
- If a chat group is disabled, a new chat will be created if the same people group is selected.

##### Evaluation Summary - Min and Max scores not reflecting correctly (#129365)
**Problem**
- The overall minimum and maximum ratings displayed on the Evaluation Summary was showing the LEAST AND MOST used ratings instead of the highest and lowest ratings used.
- Changed the overall min and max ratings to be the minimum and maximum ratings selected across all KPIs that were rated.
**Solution**
- The Import will stop if an invalid agreement will be created
##### Able to import the same file on two different setups in the same year (#129006)
**Problem**
- The user could not import multiple periods at the same time, and the user could create a contract in more than one period item.
**Solution**
- Changed PM Import so you can import multiple periods at the same time, as well as excluding users from creating contracts in more than 1 item per review year
---
#### **HR Processes**
##### Signify Down (#129685)

#### **Learning Management**
##### Saving Attendance Register and Default Recipient Check on Email Notification (#129038)
**Problem**
- The client requested to save attendance when the notification
- The client requested that the parent checkbox be a default recipient when sending absent notifications
**Solution**
- Modified `CreateAttendanceNotificationModal` to call `saveAttendanceRegister` before creating notifications.
- Changed `includeParent` state in `AttendanceNotificationModal` to `true` by default
---
#### **Tenant Management**
##### Tenant Status stuck on 'Sending Completion Notification' (#129577)
**Problem**
- Ruleset and Tenant creation is failing to complete because of the recent audit changes, the calls are made anonymously and thus identity is not set, but on the audit service it tries to fetch the ruleset ID from identity, and if not found uses the RulesetId column from the changed entity.
- The problem however is that MaterialiedRuleset tables do not have the RulesetId column (It's called just Id).
**Solution**
- Added the INonAuditable interface to the RB and JP materialised ruleset entities. I also added a change on the SqlServerDbContext class to check that when the specific entity is the Ruleset in the Account Domain use the Id column (For audits directly on the Account. Ruleset table).
- I also added a fallback to 0 if the entity in question does not have a RulesetId. This way, the audit does not break and at least logs the audit against RulesetId 0.

##### System Close Date shows differently on the list screen than on the Tenant screen (#128903)
**Problem**
- Tenants' close dates would be displayed differently on the Tenant Management and the Tenant Profile page.
**Solution**
- Changed the one date to take the user's time zone into account
---
#### **Performance Management**

# Version 9.1.151.1 (Support Release - 18 March 2025)
#### **Performance Management**
##### Copy the weights of the contracts instead of the Review Setup when using the Copy from Previous (#126081)
- When only the following setting is enabled:
[](https://signature.signifyhr.co.za/uploads/images/gallery/2025-03/KFZN9GDVerB4eq1K-image.png)
- Then the section weights are copied from the review setup
- If both settings are enabled:
[](https://signature.signifyhr.co.za/uploads/images/gallery/2025-03/QkhQG3ty12Qu2cfe-image.png)
- Then the section weights are copied from the contract that you are copying from.
##### Agreement finalized with empty section when section weight change is not allowed (#129009)
**Problem**
- On the Review Setup, the Primary Goals Setup does not allow the section weight to be changed.
- After importing the following error was thrown, but the contract was created and finalized with the Primary goals section left blank.
**Solution**
- The Import will stop if an invalid agreement will be created
##### Able to import the same file on two different setups in the same year (#129006)
**Problem**
- The user could not import multiple periods at the same time, and the user could create a contract in more than one period item.
**Solution**
- Changed PM Import so you can import multiple periods at the same time, as well as excluding users from creating contracts in more than 1 item per review year
---
#### **Audit**
##### Investigate and implement solutions for better audit data retrieval (#119199)
**Problem**
- Get an error message when trying to get audit data for a specific table
**Solution**
- Corrected mapping of audit log lists to populate the front-end page
---
# Version 9.1.151 (17 March 2025)
#### **Imports**
##### PaySpace Signify discrepancy script (#129254)
**Problem**
- A user cannot validate all the received data from PaySpace or Powershell with the data currently in the system
**Solution**
- Add staging of the received data in the pull processes for Powershell and Payroll
- Include the import types on the front end for the allowed types to export the report
- Extend the allowed export period to 7 days
##### Signify Assistance (#128700)
***Issue 1***
**Problem**
When dapper batched has more than 2000 entries in the list it Ands multiple in statements together which returns no result
e.g AND( mu.Username in ('U1',....'U2000') AND mu.Username in ('U2001',....'U3000') )
When used like
```
public async Task> ListUsersIdsAsync(int rulesetId, string[] usernames)
{
using var connection = new SqlConnection(_connectionString);
await connection.OpenAsync();
var sql = $@"
SELECT
muser.[Id] [Id],
muser.[Username] [Username]
FROM
[JobProfiler].[MaterialisedUsers] muser WITH(NOLOCK)
WHERE muser.RulesetId = @rulesetId
AND {usernames.DapperInBatched(GlobalConstants.MaxDapperBatchSize, "muser.Username")}";
```
**Solution**
- When in is used use the OR when not in is used use the AND
- When a string has accents, escape it, e.g. TS'01 will be 'TS''01' within the in statement
***Issue 2***
**Problem**
- When multiple payroll connectors are set as scheduled imports, the parallel execution causes a DBContext conflict.
**Solution**
- This will need to be resolved, but for now, the parallel execution has been changed to a normal execution method, which should resolve this issue.
***Issue 3***
**Problem**
- Due to high traffic and/or other issues, the event to update the materialised users table in the job profiler is not always being consumed in time for the appointments to be created.
- This then caused the appointment controller to search for the user in the materialized tables that did not exist.
**Solution**
- Create a fall back where when the materialized table has not been updated in time, the relevant appointment controllers fetches the required data and triggers the updates before continuing with the appointment creation.
---
#### **Main Dashboard**
##### System Error Message (#129232)
**Problem**
- If the fallback path does not exist and an error occurs on the Dashboard page and the Edit banner pages
**Solution**
- Introduce `fallbackImagePath` for default image handling. Update logic to check for fallback directory when no default background files are found
---
#### **Performance Management**
##### Unable to import VB items if the section setting is disabled to allow section items to change (#129141)
**Problem**
- The user could not import multiple periods at the same time, and the user could create a contract in more than one period item.
**Solution**
- Changed PM Import so you can import multiple periods at the same time, as well as excluding users from creating contracts in more than 1 item per review year
##### Issues to access performance module (#129162)
**Problem**
- When a user's position is set as inactive, the user is not seen as part of the people groups used to determine which review years to show on the PM dashboard.
**Solution**
- Replace the active check with not deleted to be part of the dashboard always as long as the position exists
##### Evaluation Summary not available after Final Approval (#129000)
**Problem**
- When users view their contract and the employee evaluation is on and has a due date, regardless of the phase, the button cannot be seen.
**Solution**
- Added the button to the check for the user approved to always display in the rating phase
- Add the button to the default fallback also
##### Review Period Dates & Review Year Dates - Validation Messages Include Time Erroneously (#125347)
**Problem**
- On the review year setup and review period setup pages, when the End Date is selected as a Date that falls before the Start Date, validation correctly occurs; however, when the message displaying the error is displayed, it includes the time (00:00:00), which should be removed. The date is also in the format YYYY-MM-DD could this be adjusted to reflect the correct Date Format in accordance with the Language Selected?
**Solution**
- Changed the dates of the translations to short date string, with the correct timezone and culture
##### Unable to include the Value Survey score (#128772)
**Problem**
- Saving a contract survey gave SQL Dapper an error because of new columns added to the query object used on an unrelated query, causing it to break here.
**Solution**
- Made the query model used by the Survey creation distinct from the other usages.
---
#### **Data Warehouse**
##### PAS report: Overall Final score not correct (#129134)
**Problem**
- The Overall Final Score are not being calculated correctly within the Datawarehouse
**Solution**
- Adjusted the calculation of the Overall Final Score to consider excluded Review Items
##### Additional fields for the Group / Classes Report (#120152)
**Added the additional fields**

- ***Marksheet:*** LMS > \[OPEN\] Category > \[OPEN\] Pathway > Class/Group Step > Marksheet
- ***Attendance History:*** LMS > \[OPEN\] Category > \[OPEN\] Pathway > Class/Group Step > Attendance History
- ***Training Interventions (linked to subject setup):*** Administration > Training Interventions > Type: Certification Point
- ***Training Interventions (subject assessments):*** Administration > Training Interventions > Type: Assignment
---
#### **People Management**
##### Error when deleting a user (#128917)
**Problem**
- The permissions required to terminate an employee was different between the grid view and when editing an employee.
**Solution**
- Ensured both termination methods do the same permission check.
##### User Error (#128950)
**Problem**
- When multiple processes materialise the same people group at the same time, the people group calculation fails due to duplicate insert
The performance management consumer for the reporting line consumes other reporting line types than LM and PM, resulting in unnecessary errors
**Solution**
- When inserting, confirm that the entry is not part of the people group
Filter the reporting line types used in the consumer and do not process the other types
---
#### **Notifications**
##### SMS Notifications Not Being Sent (#128562)
**Problem**
- An SMS cannot be sent by event or process.
**Solution**
- Correct test SMS sending from the template
- Correct test SMS sending from the SMS setup
- Implement mock sending of SMSs from both the SMS setup and the template
- Correct the actual sending of an SMS via Zoom
##### All Tenant Subscription mails to come from Global Ruleset (#125943)
**Problem**
- The Tenant Subscription process (Fee overdue, system close warnings, etc) must use the Global Ruleset templates.
**Solution**
- The above template is set to be active only on the default ruleset.
---
#### **Report Builder**
##### Auto scroll when dragging and dropping columns (#123392)
**Problem**
- The first problem is that dragging was registered when dragging in the middle of the table somewhere and also dragging the scrollbar at the bottom. This resulted in some strange behaviour while dragging/scrolling.
- The second issue is that I added a timeout previously to try to limit the number of requests while rearranging the headers.
- This resulted in the incorrect orders sometimes being saved, especially if you drag very quickly.
**Solution**
- Made sure that you can only re-arrange/drag the columns on the headers of the columns and removed the timeout, ensuring that the correct order is always saved.
---
#### **Ruleset Management**
##### Uptime Indicator not shown on the Login page when the Uptime URL is empty (#128373)
**Problem**
- When the default ruleset updates the default uptime monitor URL, the cache is not getting cleared for the other rulesets.
**Solution**
- Added a cache implementation to bust the cache of multiple rulesets

**Problem**
- When the default ruleset updates the default uptime monitor URL, the cache is not getting cleared for the other rulesets.
**Solution**
- Added a cache implementation to bust the cache of multiple rulesets
##### Uptime Indicator shown on Employee Profile Summary even though ruleset 1 or user's ruleset have no Up-time Monitor URL set (#128374)
**Problem**
- When the default ruleset updates the default uptime monitor URL, the cache is not getting cleared for the other rulesets.
- Added a cache implementation to bust the cache of multiple rulesets
- The uptime monitor URL help text did not show the default URL that is set in ruleset 1.
**Solution**
- Fixed the translations of the URL help text.

#### **Organisational Structure**
##### Support user shown on Org when ruleset is copied (#128500)
**Problem**
- Support users included in people groups and org structure
- Users linked to inactive or deleted appointments after termination cannot be found in people management
**Solution**
- Add check to only include system users
- Removed active and deleted position filter checks for people management queries.

#### **Data Warehouse**
##### Improve performance on full refresh (#128181)
**Problem**
- Data is deleted on a full refresh
**Solution**
- Rather truncate than delete to improve performance

# Version 9.1.149 (17 March 2025)
#### **Translation**
##### The last language the user was logged in as is used even though the user has selected another language (#126729)
**Problem**
- When on the log-in page and the user change their language and log in. It does not update the preferred language.
- This issue only happens on the deployed versions.
**Solution**
- Implemented a possible fix for the deployed versions to make use of the correct context.
##### Search results show the accordion which results fall under (collapsed) (#126575)
**Problem**
- When searching for a translation, although the section tables are filtered correctly, the section accordions stay collapsed; this makes it look like there is no match found if the section is collapsed.
**Solution**
- When searching, always expand the section accordions where a match was found and reset accordingly on search clear
---
#### **Performance Management**
##### I want to import PM Agreements into V9 (#124514)
Replace the three imports with one full performance agreement import that can handle both creating new contracts as well as updating existing contracts. To achieve this, the following has been done:
- Combine the Goals, Behaviour and Competency imports into one Full Performance Agreement Import that can handle all sections at once
- Modify the current functionality to not only create but also update existing contracts
- If the Import defines a section that is not configured on the review setup, those items will be exceptioned
- Section Items will be matched by name to allow importing additional items on a contract
- Implement the new requirement to import ratings
- The import should adhere to all rules that are applied when a contract is created/updated from the Front End (Dual Approve, Final ratings only, etc)
- Add checkbox to the import selection to "Approve contracts where completed"
- When the above parameter is set, the import should try to approve the Objective Settings, and it should try approve ratings if all ratings are provided. All current Objectives and Ratings Approval rules should be followed.
- Test multiple scenarios with new and existing contracts separately and on the same sheet; test with adding new items only to a contract; test Objectives and ratings approvals
##### Hide Evaluation Summary Button on Ratings Phase (#126277)
**Problem**
- The evaluation summary button shows in the ratings phase for the employee even if the hide evaluation summary setting is on.

- The submit button gets disabled when clicked, therefore it cannot be submitted again if the form is invalid.
**Solution**
- The disable is unnecessary because the loader is shown.
##### Review Period Dates & Review Year Dates - Validation Messages Include Time Erroneously (#125347)
**Problem**
- On the review year setup and review period setup pages, when the End Date is selected as a Date that falls before the Start Date, validation correctly occurs; however, when the message displaying the error is displayed, it includes the time (00:00:00), which should be removed.
- The date is also in the format YYYY-MM-DD; could this be adjusted to reflect the correct Date Format in accordance with the Language Selected
**Solution**
- Changed the dates of the translations to short date string, with the correct timezone and culture

- Using the `signify translation tool` to correct the grammar issue and update translations.
##### Error when user tries to reset their own password (#126175)
**Problem**
- When the user tries to reset their own password, the attempt fails because the call is checking whether the user has the People Admin role.
- This should not be done when the user is resetting their own password.
**Solution**
- Changed the ResetPassword call to check whether the user has the People Admin role or if the user whose password is being reset and then allow the action. Also changed the message displayed for when the user resets their own password from "A notification has been sent to the Person to reset their password" to "A notification has been sent to you to reset your password."

**Solution**
- Give unique names to the component elements, ensuring that the master data correctly displays on both the "Address" and "Summary" sections
##### Navigating to the requirements tab displays an error (#127019)
**Problem**
- Barched queries failed due to too many of the same foreign keys
**Solution**
- Updated query to use DapperExtension to reduce the amount of parameters and remove batch query functionality
#####
##### The load indicator is shown indefinitely when clicking on a person's profile (#127605)
**Problem**
- DapperInBatched used incorrectly in translation query, causing an invalid SQL query to be generated.

**Solution**
- Changed the URL to use the Clipboard API, with a fallback for older browsers.
---
#### **Imports**
##### User Import Validation Report (#124039)
**Problem**
- After a user import has been completed, there is no simple way for an imported user to validate that all data is the same as expected.
**Solution**
- Add a report to be generated for each user import from that compares the data requested for import with the data currently in the system.
- On the Notification | Imports page for the user import add an additional action User validation Report
- When this button is clicked a report is generated for the list of users imported in the form of the import sheet
- The report is a comparison report exporting the field requested for import vs the current system value of the import e.g.
- Username, CurrentUsername, Name, CurrentName, Surname, CurrentSurname
- Add a new first column ValidationMessage. When any field is not insync between the import and the current value then it lists the column name that is incorrect e.g.
- Invalid Data: Name, Surname, StartDate
- RULE: only allow for comparison/validation if import ran in the last day

---
# Version 9.1.148.2 (Support Release - 8 March 2025)
#### **Imports**
##### Error on Employee Automated import (#128700)
**Problem**
- When the end date received from Payspace is equal to the start date, as is the case with enrolments, the record is rejected.
- When the termination reason is not available in the case of the above case the record is rejected.
- When an appointment is updated in Payspace the user receives a new position id which causes a new position to be created in Signify for each appointment update.
**Solution**
- Remove the end date >= start date pre-import validation
- Remove the termination required when the end date is provided pre-import validation
- Change the position code to a concatenation of the organisation title and the employee id. This creates a position with a name per employee rather than per appointment change. This means that positions will not be reused should the employee transfer to a new position in Payspace .
---
#### **Performance Management**
##### Evaluation Summary not available after Final Approval (#129000)
**Problem**
- When users view their contract and employee evaluation is on and has a due date, regardless of the phase, the button cannot be seen.
**Solution**
- Add the button to the check for the user approved to always display in the rating phase
- Add the button to the default fallback also
##### Unable to include the Value Survey score (#128772)
**Problem**
- Saving a contract survey gave SQL Dapper an error because new columns were added to the query object used on an unrelated query causing it to break here.
**Solution**
- Made the query model used by the Survey creation distinct from the other usages.
---
#### **People Management**
##### User error (#128950)
**Problem**
- When multiple processes materialised in the same people group at the same time the people group calculation fails due to duplicate insert
- The performance management consumer for the reporting line consumes other reporting line types than LM and PM resulting in unnecessary errors
**Solution**
- When inserting confirm that the entry is not part of the people group
- Filter the reporting line types used in the consumer and do not process the other types
##### Error after appointing a new person (#128545)
**Problem**
- When appointing a new user the people groups are not busted in time of the profile page load due to eventual consistency
**Solution**
- Move the busting to the job profiler service to bust the materialised cached in the service first and then all the rest of the services.
##### Termination reasons (#128535)
**Problem**
- Inactive termination reasons are shown in the dropdown
**Solution**
- Only show active termination reasons. You still cannot delete a termination reason if it has been used, regardless of whether it is active or not.

##### Termination reasons (#128535)
- When terminating an employee, choosing a termination reason and then deactivating that reason in MasterData should no longer be an option when terminating another user.
- Only active termination reasons should be available as options
- The deactivated reason should still be on the appointment history record.

---
#### **Learning Management**
##### No error detail if absent notification cannot be sent to Parent/Guardian (#123832)

**Solution**
- Updated LearningManagementExportService to handle cases where recipient details (email, name, surname) might be missing using localized strings.
##### Training Interventions Duplicating on Marksheet (#128548)
**Problem**
- When viewing the mark sheet, duplicate training interventions and mark setups are shown when only 1 subject and training intervention have been linked.
- The problem is that when a class subject or class training intervention is deleted, the query does not filter out the deleted records.
**Solution**
- Change the select mark sheet setup query to exclude deleted class training interventions and class subjects.
##### Nextcloud error is displayed when you open the Marksheet link on an email (#124536)
**Problem**
- URL is incorrect on Angelo's Sites
**Solution**
- Added import for `generateUrl` from `../../helpers/generateUrl`. Updated `axios.get` call to use `generateUrl`
##### Attendance and Marksheet not working anymore for Teachers (#128087)
**Problem**
- The teacher can't view the Attendance list since the GPRC call doesn't allow LearningAdmins
**Solution**
- Updated the \[Authorize\] attribute on the `ListUsersLinkedToRoles` method in the` IdentityService` class to allow access for users with either the `PeopleManagementAdministrator` or `LearningAdministrator` roles. Previously, only users with the `PeopleManagementAdministrator` role could access this method
---
#### **Identity and Authorisation**
##### People Connect Slowness in APAC (#128284)
**Problem**
For the SSO from V8 to V9, when the identity cookie has expired, a "Too\_Many\_Redirects" error is shown, and the browser session is terminated. Users are then unable to continue to V9 until they delete their cookies.
There are 2 problems here:
1. This is the iterative error that happens on the error page. When the 1st failure happens, the error page is loaded. The error page uses the same base layout as other pages. It tries to access resources/information that requires an authenticated user, but since that was the initial cause of failure, the error page breaks and gets redirected to the error page from start again, which continues to fail until the browser forces a discontinuation.
2. This is the initial failure, which is that the SSO redirect fails because MVC sees the user identity (from the webmvc) token as authenticated / still valid, but according to Identity. Api itself The user token has expired. The identity is never recreated until the cookies are physically deleted.
**Solution:**
1. Added unauthenticated try catches to the base layout to handle situations where the error page is loaded without a user being authenticated. This at least prevents the browser discontinuation and displays the error page, we will need to look at improving this handling in future.
2. Made modifications to how the SingleSignOn token is handled by always expiring and then deleting the MVC cookies and forcing the re-authentication with Identity through use of an additional ChallengeCompleted flag. This then checks whether it is a new SSO request and re-initializes the identity auth-flow regardless of whether the Identity User is seen as authenticated or not.
---
#### **Imports**
##### There is an overlapping position error when terminating one employee and appointing another in the position in the same file (#126495)
**Problem**
- When importing for a position that does not exist in the system, the terminated record and transfer of the terminated record are handled as new appointments. When comparing the overlap, the terminated appointment's end date was not considered, thus causing the transfer to overlap the terminated record.
**Solution**
- Change the overlap check
- Add a unit test for the scenario

##### The payroll name is not saving and PowerShell cannot be null (#128236)
**Problem**
- The payroll connector was not saving due to a prototype not being nullable, and the name field was not saving due to multiple name fields with the same ID
**Solution**
- Made prototype nullable and chose name field based on visible container.
---
#### **Performance Management**
##### Copy Over Scorecard (#128182)
**Problem**
- When creating a new contract and selecting Copy From Another, only subordinate contracts for the current Review Year were returned, you then cannot create a contract for someone in the current year from a colleague on a previous year.
**Solution**
- Fix the query that returns the list of contracts to pull for all previous years, also remove the subordinate ID fetch from JobProfiler and instead rely directly on the materialized table PerformanceManagerUserIds. Made the selection modal scrollable.
The following changes were made:
- Disable the Active toggles when anyone has started rating - same as the delete rule
- Add a tooltip on the disabled Active
- This rating value is already in use by some agreements
- Also, disable the *Click to add another item*
- When a rating value has not yet been used and you make the item inactive, then this should not reflect as an option on the agreement when rating
1) 2 offline refresh jobs were still running that I stopped I believe they were holding onto resources
2) At the same time 3 update processes were running that were blocking one another, I think the offline refresh jobs may have affected these, once the jobs stopped the processes were completed.
3) One of the queries pulling PG info is intermittently slow, although it seems to be fine now. There may be PG changes happening which is requiring refreshes on the PG and affecting the speed of the call. We will have to keep monitoring this, if we do experience significant performance problems again we can investigate further to try and see if we can identify something.
The previous Interpolation Actual Value field now serves as the Final Actual Value.
The following 2 fields were added:
- InterpolatedManagerValue
- InterpolatedUserValue

**Solution**
- Ensure the values are saved correctly even when reloading the screen
##### Inactive Rating Scale item still taken into account (#127347)
**Problem**
- When you configure the PM module with a rating scale of 5, for example, and the 5th rating is disabled, the PM calculation still includes the disabled rating.
**Solution**
- Disable the Active toggles when anyone has started rating - same as the delete rule
- Add a tooltip on the disabled Active
- This rating value is already in use by some agreements
- Also, disable the *Click to add another item*
- When a rating value has not yet been used and you make the item inactive, then this should not reflect as an option on the agreement when rating

##### Action plan copy from previous does not work as expected (#124270)
**Problem**
4 Action plan-related fixes on this PR.
1. This label was updated, it does not reflect Review Periods but rather the Review Setups
2. There was some confusion as to how the Copy Action Plans From Previous should work, the consensus between me, Bertie and Lee-Ann is that you can only copy from your previous review years. You cannot use this to copy APs from an earlier Review Period within the same setup (This should happen with the CreateContractFromPrevious fix 4)
Changed the query for the review years to exclude the year for the current contract.
3. The Copy Action Plans From Previous was not copying all the information, only Name and Description. Including now all AP fields on the copy.
4. When doing CreateContractPeriodFromPrevious it must also copy any Action Plans that exist on that contract period. (which it did not do)
**Solution**
1. Updated the translation to correct the label to show Review Setup
2. Changed the query for the review years to exclude the year for the current contract.
3. Modified the Action Plan handlers and queries to select all the additional information and to also copy that when creating the item. Had to fix an update here and there
4. Added a new portion to the CreateContractPeriodFromPrevious handler to check if there are any action plans on the source and then copy that to the new contract. Tries to copy the Ad-hoc items as well as those assigned to specific KPIs.

- The import options, option two is hidden when the setting: All manager to change value survey score, is off on the review setup
- Store the data in the DB for the review year
- Add a Command that pulls the approved 360 scores from V8 via users
- The command should only pull the data from the last successful import of data
- The command should adhere to the import type of the review year item
- Create a query to fetch the review year for the linked evaluation period, match the linked period by name to the linked evaluation period and user name received from V8
- Use the query to map the data that should be changed for new scores and overriding current scores
- Create a new bulk command based on UpdateContractSurveyCommand to update the value score recursively and save entities once
- Use the import service to store the run dates of the import
- Automate the import with a quartz job in the Import service
- The import service should call the PM service to perform the action
- The import service is responsible for the external fetch of data
- Add a button to the integration tab to import the data from V8 to V9 on demand
##### Incorrect message when setting up Interpolation (#126467)

#### **Master Data**
##### Seeded data not appearing in drop downs on Employee Profile (#126916)
**Problem**
- Duplicate master data is causing issues in the system.
**Solution**
- Add unique constraints on the master data name per ruleset on the simple master data tables that make sense e.g.
- - Data in select \* from v9\_master\_core.masterdata.Tables
- Simple MasterData - should only consider name and ruleset id
- Add unique constraints on the database for tables
- In the MasterData engine catch translatable exceptions to display on front end if the unique constraint is violated

- The Restore To Default button should only be clickable for customized templates and added tooltip to the button.
- Move the Dashboard tab at the bottom and rename it to Statistics.
- The back button on the template view page must keep the search results and the opened tab.

- Restore to default will be disabled if the template is not customized.
- The search results of the templates table persist if the template is edited and the back button is used.
- The dashboard tab is renamed to Statistics and moved to the bottom of the tabs.
##### Extra detail to be added to all templates (#126050)
**Problem**
- For all emails that are sent, add Tenant ID, Ruleset ID and template ID (And a C if the template is customized) at the bottom of emails. Also, show the codes on the template list.
**Solution**
- All emails that are sent have a light grey code at the bottom with the format: \[T{TemplateId}R{RulesetId}-{TemplateId\] - \[T17R2-44\] or \[T17R2-44 C\] for customized templates. The code is also added to the template list

#### **Organisational Structure**
##### As a person with access to the Organisational Structure, I want to see the linked positions on the same page (#124045)
**Business Rules**
- Hide the Search option in the Header of the page
- When clicking on the Organisational Structure menu under the gear, the landing page should include the linked positions - the page is split into two
- The first time the page is accessed, only the Organisational Units are shown on the left
- Expand the first 3 levels of the org chart when opening
- Suggestion: Add buttons to open the levels
- The drag & drop functionality of org units should still apply

- Add a tooltip on the (\[nr\] People, \[nr\] Vacancies, \[nr\] Inactive)
- Underline the text
- When clicking on this text, load the positions on the right
- When clicking on an Org Unit, show the linked positions on the right
- When clicking on the arrow to the left of the org node (), expand the org node but don’t load the positions. It would be great if clicking on  it could also expand (without loading the positions).
- Only load the positions when clicking on the part (\[nr\] People, \[nr\] Vacancies, \[nr\] Inactive)
- The ability to drag & drop positions to other org units should still be available
- The filters should be:
- Filled Positions (Default)
- Vacant Positions
- Inactive Positions
- All
- When no positions are linked to an Org Unit, show a placeholder
- Text (Add translations for the text)
- There are no positions in this organisational unit.
There could be positions in subordinate organisational units.
- Add a **+ Position** button on the right
- This will work the same as when appointing a person
- Job Title field should be blank
- When selecting a job title from the drop-down, change the position title to the same value, after which the user can update the position title. Do this on every Job Title change, even if the position title is populated.

---
#### **Access Management**
##### Change the System Access page to ensure there is no scroll bar at the bottom (#124625)
**Problem**
- When on the access management page the page overflows and pushes everything of the screen, no matter what you zoom size is.
**Solution**
- Found that the problem is the initialisation of the text areas, when one is initiated it creates a container and when the second is also initialised it creates another container that is exactly the same. Added a check to not add a second container on both.

**Problem**
- The system does not allow users to indicate the uptime of the services

---
#### **People Groups**
##### People groups - automatically create a people group when a manager opens system menus (#124188)

# Version 9.1.144.3 (Support Release - 18 February 2025)
#### **Performance Management**
##### Copy Over Scorecard (#128182)
**Problem**
- When creating a new contract and selecting Copy From Another, only subordinate contracts for the current Review Year were returned, you then cannot create a contract for someone in the current year from a colleague on a previous year.
**Solution**
- Fix the query that returns the list of contracts to pull for all previous years, also remove the subordinate ID fetch from JobProfiler and instead rely directly on the materialized table PerformanceManagerUserIds.
- Made the selection modal scrollable.
---

**Solution**
- Ensure that those events use the correct placeholder's name.
---
#### **Performance Management**
##### Unable to Link Scorecards to Users (#127841)
The following changes were made to the bulk create and delete pages to allow it to work for small and large datasets
- The dropdown that searches on a user has been replaced with a list textarea where you can paste a list of usernames to search for. The load of all users to filter appropriately here was too much, and there was not enough time to implement proper async loading in the dropdown.
- The load all option will only load the first 1000 records that match your search criteria, the browser cannot handle the load of any more data than that without hanging
- The people groups filter is now applied using the materialised people group data
- When load all is done only the last part of the org path is displayed e.g. ...Parent Node Name | Position Node Name
- The existing performance contract filter was removed as it caused performance issues as how the data is loaded from different contexts
**Problem**
- Barched queries failed due to too many of the same foreign keys
**Solution**
- Updated query to use DapperExtension to reduce the number of parameters and remove batch query functionality
#####
##### Load indicator shown indefinitely when clicking on person's profile (#127605)
**Problem**
- DapperInBatched was misused in the translation query, causing an invalid SQL query to be generated.
**Solution**
- Ensure that DapperInBatched is used correctly for the query.
**Problem**
- Full refreshes of DWH tables are required on an ad-hoc basis
**Solution**
- Add a package setting called DoFullRefresh and default it to 0
- When it is 1 change the reference date for refreshes to 1900/01/01, which will force a full refresh
---
#### **Translations**
##### Language Translation not saving (#126551)
**Problem**
- The save button does not enable when going to a different tab than 'global' and also not when searching. The issue is that the 'active culture' gets overwritten because of incorrect lookup to the wrong nav-tabs which resulted in it not picking up the correct stored translation mapping and not determining any changes.
- The second problem is when searching or reloading the page on the current sub-tab, the Save button does not work, this was because the form to post is defaulted to {culture}-global and not to whatever tab you are currently on.
**Solution**
- Correct the determination to get the active culture by not looking at subTabs.
- Change the submit buttons related to form ID to post to on page load
---
#### **Master Data**
##### Change Activities field length on master data (#126538)
**Problem**
- The PM Master data text areas are limited to 2000 and not the standard text area max input. Activities however allow for this on Template and Contract levels.
**Solution**
- Allow a 4000-character limit when the field is Activities.
---
# Version 9.1.141 (3 February 2025)
#### **Imports**
##### Employee data import error (#125558)
**Problem**
- The org nodes are duplicated when no org structure exists and multiple users are linked to the node
- When importing nodes with accents in the name the import fails
- The bulk import to V8 for the job structure is blocked by the full org structure import when errors occur
**Solution**
- Remove unused caching check between node creation and replace with existence check on the newly created nodes
- Add accent escapes when querying the existing org nodes.
- Reorder the bulk import types
##### User Import: Change appointment import to import by action type (#121473)
**Problem**
- When a user is terminated or transferred in the same file the user conflicts with a new user taking the same position
- - The old User was terminated and the New user was appointed in the same position within the same import after the termination

**Appointment Import Rules**
**Terminations**
- When an end date is provided for the active position
- With a termination reason, end on the imported date with the reason provided
- Without a termination reason, end the active appointment with the date
- Clear the current termination reasons if they exist
- When the terminated record imported's position is different from the latest appointment position the system handles the record as a transfer to a terminated position
- When the terminated record imported is on the same position but the start date, termination date, appointment type, and termination reason differ handle it as an appointment correction
- When no appointment exists and the user is imported with an end date handle as a new appointment
**New Appointments**
- When a user has no appointments in the system
- - Check for overlapping appointments for the position
- The start and end date of the imported position must not overlap any existing appointment for the position

- End the current active appointment with end date = new appointment start date -1
- The user's latest appointment is terminated
- - Check for overlapping appointments for the position
- The start and end date of the imported position must not overlap any existing appointment for the position
- Check for overlapping appointments with the current user's appointments

**Problem**
- On the direct chat recipient list, if only only one search result is returned, the Load More button icon is shown at the bottom of the Chat panel.
**Solution**
- Added fix to hide load more button if the search is being used
---
#### **Layout**
##### Move banner items to have the same space everywhere (#124619)
**Problem**
- The bulletin message button is too close to the search bar.
**Solution**
- Added space between the button and the search bar.
---
#### **HR Processes**
##### Unable to see who is set on a position when clicking on the populated drop-down (#123366)
**Problem**
- The fallback configuration position drop-downs display only the top 50 records. When you select someone not part of the initial list of 50 people, the selected person will not be automatically selected in the drop-down, when you open the drop-down.
**Solution**
- Always add the selected person to the list, even if not initially part of the list, so that it will be selected when opening the drop-down.
##### Create a job to substitute a terminated person with a Fallback approver (#123554)
**Business Rules**
- Create a job that substitutes a terminated person with a Fallback approver
##### As a Fallback Approver, I want to receive a notification (#123552)
- Create a specific email for the Fallback approver:
Dear \[\*\*\*ApproverName\*\*\*\] \[\*\*\*ApproverSurname\*\*\*\]

##### As a Fallback Approver, I want to have a section to view all open requests where I can be an approver as a Fallback (#123555)
**Business Rules**
- Create a section for “OPEN REQUESTS AS FALLBACK APPROVER”
- This section should show all open requests where this (fallback approver) could potentially have been a fallback approver.
- When clicking on the tab:
- Determine all the org units for which the user is a fallback approver
- Get all the employees in the selected orgs, and sub orgs
- List all the open requests for the abovementioned employees
- On all the cards that are “in progress”:
- Show the APPROVE / DECLINE button – similar to what we do now for the Fallback approver, but on the “next card”
- When opening it, at the bottom of the screen, show an “ESCALATE” button:
- This button should request a reason, and then mark this card as “Escalated” and pass it to the next person in the approval line
- The last card cannot have an “ESCALATE” button.
- Perhaps the escalation can be combined with the existing option that the fallback approver has
---
#### **Organisational Structure**
##### Incorrect counts displayed (#121311)
**Problem**
- The number of users shown on the org structure did not match with the number of users on the org unit people groups.
**Solution**

##### Change hover text for 'Move Position' (#124737)
**Problem**
- Renaming of tooltip
**Solution**
- Rename the tooltip from "Move Positions" to "Postitions"
---

**Problem**
- Rename fields - User File Categories to People Document Categories and fix PermitTypes not having a space
**Solution**
- Added necessary translations to fix the issues with field names.
##### Company Values display (#124739)
**Problem**
- When adding a list of items underneath each other in the field “How do we live it out” on the Master Data, it shows as a wrapped paragraph.
- Do not strip out the HTML.
**Solution**
- Changed the company values to keep the whitespace for the “How do we live it out” field.
---
#### **Notifications**
##### Add time to Welcome email (#124699)
**Problem**
- The time the welcome notification was sent is not showing.
**Solution**
- Display the time the notification was sent.
##### Implement Priority Emails (#124030)
**Problem**
- OTP, Forgot Password and Tenant creation emails take up to 5 minutes to arrive at the user.
- This causes frustration and doubt that the system is working in these highly sensitive areas.
**Solution**
- Implement priority emails that will be processed immediately rather than queued and then sent. The current flag on the email template must be used to determine if an email should be processed as a priority email as soon as possible
##### Dates on Schedule Setup are not shown in the preferred language set by the user (#124706)
**Problem**
- The date fields are shown in the American date format, even though the preferred language is set to English (UK).

##### Restoring to Default does not remove documents attached to Template (#101344)
**Problem**
- When an email template is restored to default, the old attachments are still on the template.
**Solution**
- The attachments are now deleted if a template is restored to default.
---
#### **Language**
##### Capitalize the first letter of the other languages (#121390)
**Problem**
- When a user selects their preferred language All the languages are capitalised except Portuguese and French. This is because of the method use to get name makes use of those languages' capitalisation norms. This does not look right on the system
**Solution**
- Implemented a workaround to not make use of the capitalisation norms so that everything is standardized across the entire system
##### Page reloads when searching in a module (#103759)
**Problem**
- When making use of the global search on the language page the entire page reloads and reverts to the "global" subtab. No implementation was done to keep track of the active tab
**Solution**
- Implemented a fix to not reload the page and keep track of the active sub-tab.
---

**Problem**
- Incorrect heading for the Org path column
**Solution**
- Ensure the correct heading is displayed on the table for the org path column
---
#### **Audit**
##### ValueObjects in tables are not audited (#116420)
**Problem**
- When only a Value Object has changed on an Entity (as opposed to a normal property) the auditing does not pick up that the entity should be audited because it does not evaluate the Value Object properties of the Entity.
**Solution**
- Unfortunately, there is no easy way to directly check the previous vs current values of Value Object properties as you would with a normal entity property change. Value Objects are immutable; any 'change' deletes the previous entity reference and adds a new one.
- To still be able to pick up changes, however, you can access all the 'Added' reference entities of an entity (the value objects essentially) and then compare that to the list of deleted entities from the Change Tracking.
- If it is the same type and has the same FK then assume that this Deleted entity is the pre-change version of the Added entity.
- Once the deleted entity is retrieved compare Added against Deleted properties and return true if any changes.
---
#### **Imports**
##### Employee data import error (#125558)
**Problem**
- The org nodes are duplicated when no org structure exists and multiple users are linked to the node
- When importing nodes with accents in the name the import fails
- The bulk import to V8 for the job structure is blocked by the full org structure import when errors occur
**Solution**
- Remove unused caching check between node creation and replace with existence check on the newly created nodes
- Add accent escapes when querying the existing org nodes.
- Reorder the bulk import types
- Correct 1000 appointment recursion error
##### Signify Employee data import API (#122932)
**Add the option on the payroll connector to save and validate a PowerShell script used for import**
- When adding a payroll connector
- Move the payroll connector provider to the top of the modal
- Add a new provider Powershell
- When the provider type is Powershell
- Change the display of the screen and show the following fields
- Name - Textbox
- Powershell Script- Text Area
- The text area is pre-populated with a PowerShell script for import from Signify's own APIs. This script servers as the base to be customised from
- Import Enabled- Toggle
- When the user saves the page the script is run without staging the data
- When the PowerShell script can run through and return data in the format to be stagged the script is valid
- Otherwise through an error
- When the manual processing button is clicked then the Powershell script will run and stage
- When more than one PowerShell script is added then all the data will be stagged and processed as a single import only keeping the latest record per user should a user be returned in multiple Powershell scripts
- Each provider's connectors will be processed together and will not include other providers
- This means Payspace connectors will be grouped and Powershell connectors will be grouped and processed as a batch separately.
**Create a PowerShell connector command to process connectors of this type per the ruleset**
Create a new command and handler- PowershellImportCommand
- The handler retrieves all the PowerShell connectors for active rulesets
- All the connectors for a specific ruleset must be processed as a batch
- The users from multiple connectors will be stagged and imported as a single import
- Should a user be returned by multiple connectors only the latest user according to appointment data should be imported
- Log all steps in the handler as an import occurring and display the status on Notifications| Imports
Security when running a PowerShell script
- Consider the implementation of custom run space when running the import
The handler should be able to be run manually for a single ruleset or per schedule for all rulesets
- Reuse the current payroll connector job to also process powershell connectors
**Create SQL notification for support**
**Problem:**
- When an import runs in the background no notification informs the client if a failure has occurred during the import. The user currently needs to go to the Notifications | Imports tab in the system to access this information.
**Solution:**
- When an import completes and any failures occurred during the import trigger a standard system notification.
**Recipient:** Front End Import- Person who started the import
Backend Import- Send to admins of product linked to import type
**CC:**
**Email Body:**
Dear [RecipientName] [RecipientSurname],
The [ImportType] import is completed with [ErrorCount] errors.
Please follow the below link for more information
[Link To Notification | Import]
Kind Regards

#### **Performance Management**
##### PM Allow Employee and Manager ratings on interpolation (#126340)
**Problem**
- Interpolation was based on having a single Actual Value, however, a client requested that we allow for the manager & person to capture individual actuals as there are scenarios where the actuals might be disputed.
**Solution**
- Added actual value columns for person and manager, saved relevant actual value according to which person is rating, modified queries and react state assignment to set relevant fields correctly.
---
#### **Imports**
##### User Import: Change appointment import to import by action type (#121473)
**Problem**
When a user is terminated or transferred in the same file the user conflicts with a new user taking the same position
- The old User was terminated and the New user was appointed in the same position within the same import after the termination
- The old user transfers to a new position and the new user receives the old user's position after the transfer
When the position is changed but the start date of the appointment remains the same the user appointment is not corrected
**Solution**
1. Terminations
2. Transfers
3. Corrections
4. New appointments
- The below fields do not exist in the report builder:
- Review Year Setup Id
- Review Item Id
**Solution**
- Make the Review Year Setup ID and Review Item ID available in the Data Warehouse

**Problem**
- The incorrect contact details are displayed on the main dashboard when a user has multiple contracts in the last year where the review years have the same start date.
- When the conversion of the work anniversary fails the people dashboard does not load.
**Solution**
- When a review year is not active or deleted exclude it, order the results by the period start, review year start and the display order of the review years.
- Simplify query with inner selects to avoid unnecessary duplication of data
- Add a try-catch to return an empty string when the conversion fails rather than breaking the whole page and preventing the user from continuing
---
# Version 9.1.137 (13 January 2025)
#### **Performance Management**
##### Set Value Survey score to be included when importing (#119743)
**Problem**
- When calibrating value surveys, if the value survey has been excluded the calibrated score is not included in the calculation because of the survey being excluded.
- Can then only be set from the front end.
**Solution**
- Ensure when calibrating value surveys that it is included (Excluded = false).
##### \[Interpolation\] Reset the modal after entering the actual value (#121040)

**Solution**
- Ensure modal is reset after entering value and opening modal again.
##### Nextcloud error pages is displayed when I click the Subordinates button (#124594)

"[https://kubernetesdev.signifyhr.co.za/Spa/master/performanceManagement/Dashboard](https://kubernetesdev.signifyhr.co.za/Spa/master/performanceManagement/Dashboard)"
instead of
"[https://kubernetesdev.signifyhr.co.za/master/Spa/performanceManagement/Dashboard](https://kubernetesdev.signifyhr.co.za/master/Spa/performanceManagement/Dashboard)"
- It works if there is no pathbase eg local and uat and live
"[https://live.signifyhr.co.za/Spa/performanceManagement/Dashboard](https://live.signifyhr.co.za/Spa/performanceManagement/Dashboard)"
**Solution**
- Changed the URL generation so it correctly prepends the path base Eg 'master' before the entirety of the generated URL.

**Solution**
- Trim the contact numbers on the ListUsersExport call
---
#### **Ruleset Management**
##### Error on creation of ruleset (#124289)
**Problem**
- The support user is created before the ruleset creation completes on account and the ruleset created is consumed on the job profiler service.
- This causes the ruleset creation process to fail.
- The ruleset-created email is sent even when the ruleset fails to create
**Solution**
- Remove all the event consumers RulesetCreated
- Move work done by the consumers to a gRPC endpoint per service
- Create a new event CreateRulesetEvent with consumer CreateRulesetEventConsumer that is published after the ruleset has been created on the account service
- The new consumer calls each service to use gRPC to create the ruleset on the service
- Only once all the services have been created in the system and support users have been created
- As a final step, the notification is sent that the ruleset has been created
- The consumer has been constructed for retry only running the request that has not been completed again
##### Add functionality to retry the creation process of a ruleset which failed to create (#110754)
**Problem**
- Currently, if a ruleset fails to create, you are stuck, there is no way for you to retry it.
- This applies only to failed rulesets, and not rulesets still in the process of creating/copying.
**Solution**
- Add an option to retry the creation/copy process. When clicked, send the RulesetCreatedEventConsumer message to the failed services.
##### Tenant creation not completed (#124774)
**Problem**
- When creating a tenant and the logged-in user's username is the same as the tenant administrator's email address, the tenant creation fails.
**Solution**
- Remove the copy of the logged-in user when creating a new ruleset for the new tenant
---
#### **Imports**
##### Signify Employee data import API (#122932)
**Add the option on the payroll connector to save and validate a Powershell script used for import**
- When adding a payroll connector
- - Move the payroll connector provider to the top of the modal
- Add a new provider Powershell
- When the provider type is Powershell
- Change the display of the screen and show the following fields
- Name - Textbox
- Powershell Script- Text Area
- The text area is pre-populated with a PowerShell script for import from Signify's APIs. This script servers as the base to be customised from
- Import Enabled- Toggle
- When the user saves the page the script is run without staging the data
- When the PowerShell script can run through and return data in the format to be stagged the script is valid
- Otherwise through an error
- When the manual processing button is clicked then the Powershell script will run and stage
- When more than one Powershell script is added then all the data will be stagged and processed as a single import only keeping the latest record per user should a user be returned in multiple Powershell scripts
- Each provider's connectors will be processed together and will not include other providers
- This means Payspace connectors will be grouped and Powershell connectors will be grouped and processed as a batch separately.
**Create a PowerShell connector command to process connectors of this type per the ruleset**
- Create a new command and handler- PowershellImportCommand
- - The handler retrieves all the PowerShell connectors for active rulesets
- All the connectors for a specific ruleset must be processed as a batch
- The users from multiple connectors will be stagged and imported as a single import
- Should a user be returned by multiple connectors only the latest user according to appointment data should be imported
- Log all steps in the handler as an import occurring and display the status on Notifications| Imports
- Security when running a PowerShell script
- - Consider the implementation of custom run space when running the import
- The handler should be able to be run manually for a single ruleset or per schedule for all rulesets
- - Reuse the current payroll connector job to also process PowerShell connectors
**Create SQL notification for support**
When an import runs in the background no notification informs the client if a failure has occurred during the import.
The user currently needs to go to the Notifications | Imports tab in the system to access this information.
**Solution**
When an import completes and any failures occur during the import trigger a standard system notification.
**Recipient:** Front End Import- Person who started the import
Backend Import- Send to admins of product linked to import type
**CC:**
**Email Body:**
Dear [RecipientName] [RecipientSurname],
The [ImportType] import is completed with [ErrorCount] errors.
Please follow the below link for more information
[Link To Notification | Import]
Kind Regards

##### Add 'Show Condensed Results' (#123390)
- Have an option to “**Show condensed results**”.
- By default, it must be selected.
- When selected, all fields and values must show the first 15 characters with a … (if it is longer than 15 characters).
- When hovering over the value, it must show the complete text/field name.
- This must preferably be done through a JavaScript function that will not cause a reload of the page, but rather change it immediately.

**Solution**
- Properly clear people group cache and materialised people groups
##### The active people group set by the user on V9 is not activated as an active subgroup on V8 when clicking on the V8 module menu item (#124215)
**Problem**
- The active people group is not set as the active subgroup when opening the V8 page in V9
**Solution**
- Retrieve the active people group ID from the query string
- Select the people group from the user's assigned subgroups
- If not available then the preferred subgroup should be loaded
---
#### **Main Dashboard**
##### Performance Management Dashboard Widget not showing correct data (#125269)
**Problem**
- It seems the score and information are not displayed correctly for the user because they have two contracts.
**Solution**
- Changing the query that populates the dashboard to order the contracts if multiple exits by the display order of the review year.
- This will then allow the dashboard to display the latest data according to this ordering and secondly the start date of the cycle.
- The dashboard will also only display the latest review period for the contract details within the year.
---
# Version 9.1.136 (13 January 2025)
#### **Performance Management**
##### Able to capture contract although period closed (#123871)
**Problem**
- When a phase is already closed, the dial can be used to view the contract, but the actions (Eg. creating a KPI) are still active.
**Solution**
- Lock the agreement if the phases are not active.
##### PM V9 Action plan copy from previous does not work as expected (#124270)
**Problem**
4 Action plan-related fixes on this PR.
1. This label was updated, it does not reflect Review Periods but rather the Review Setups
2. There was some confusion as to how the Copy Action Plans From Previous should work, the consensus between me, Bertie and Lee-Ann is that you can only copy from your previous review years. You cannot use this to copy APs from an earlier Review Period within the same setup (This should happen with the CreateContractFromPrevious fix 4)
Changed the query for the review years to exclude the year for the current contract.
3. The Copy Action Plans From Previous was not copying all the information, only Name and Description. Including now all AP fields on the copy.
4. When doing CreateContractPeriodFromPrevious it must also copy any Action Plans that exist on that contract period. (which it did not do)
**Solution**
1. Updated the translation to correct the label to show Review Setup
2. Changed the query for the review years to exclude the year for the current contract.
3. Modified the Action Plan handlers and queries to select all the additional information and to also copy that when creating the item. Had to fix an update here and there
4. Added a new portion to the CreateContractPeriodFromPrevious handler to check if there are any action plans on the source and then copied that to the new contract. Tries to copy the Ad-hoc items as well as those assigned to specific KPIs.
##### Cannot Copy from previous (#124269)
**Problem**
- The CopyFromPrevious / CopyFromTemplate functionality breaks when creating for an employee on a review setup that has leadership behaviours enabled.
- This is because only managers get the section added to their contracts, but the copy from then tries to add the default library items to the employee's contract.
- This breaks because the LB section does not exist to add it to.
**Solution**
- Do a check to not add the LB items if the employee is not a lIne manager.
- The preceding Create Contract step will not have created the ContractPeriodSections LB section if the employee is not a line manager.

#### Improve the performance of queries throughout the system by providing a materialised PeoplegroupUsers table per service (#122980)
**Problem**

---
### Learning Management

---
### Data Warehouse
#### Organisational path - Incorrect (#124143)
**Problem**
The issue was these 2 users' Appointments were edited last May according to the source data. The data warehouse data for these specific 2 users was not updated with the latest Org data. For Appointments, the data warehouse fetched the data that had been updated for the past 72 hours. I am not sure if the Datawarehouse at that time did not update the Appointment data or if there is perhaps an issue on the data source where the Edited Data did not update correctly, due to this being updated manually on the source DB with support query.
**Solution**
Adjust the Appointments DWH package to refresh all the appointments daily. This is now possible due to the massive performance improvements that were made within the DWH. This will ensure that the DWH does have all the latest appointments daily going on forward.
#### 'Null' values should return an empty string (#123389)
**Problem**
- The Datawarehouse returned 'blank' if the nvarchar returned NULL values
**Solution**
- Adjusted the V9 DWH to return NULL if the nvarchar column value is NULL
#### Dashboards: Scores not showing on graphs (#123887)
**Problem**
- The final rating score field needs to be added within Contract Periods for V9 DWH to implement the dashboard changes
**Solution**
- Added Final rating score field within Contract Periods

**Solution**
- This was due to an issue on the DWH that was picked up now with jpReportingLines, where the Datawarehouse package did not cater for Username, Name and Surname changes that can occur withinthe DataSource table "JobProfiler.UserReportingLines", as the DWH only checked for changes that occurred within Database table "JobProfiler.MaterialisedUsers".

Modified the `ListClassSubjectGroupsRequest` message in `learning_management.v1.proto` to replace `people_group_id` with `node_id`.

**Problem**
- The user has no clear indication of how to open the comment modal

- Added translation key `doubleClickToAddComment` in `learningManagement.json`.
#### Marksheet not saving all data (#123551)
**Problem**
- Auto marks already overridden are being overridden again by the V8 import of marks.

**Solution**
- Updated `MarkController.cs` to wrap error messages in an object with a `message` property for `ConfigurationErrorsException` and `RpcException`.
- Modified `Marksheet.tsx` to check for `error.response.data.message` in the `catch` block and conditionally render `ButtonLinkSlider` and `MDBAccordion` based on `navLinks` and `markSetupList` lengths. Added alerts for no-mark setups or students.
- Added new localized messages in `learningManagement.json` for scenarios with no subjects or students

- Appointments are not updated for materialised users
- User data is lost when updating appointments or reporting line data
**Solution**:
- The notification did not implement batch user materialisation and appointments
Performance management implements batch reporting line materialisation
- Report builder correct code
- Implement updates of materialised data only if changes
- Add migrations to update data across services for report builder and notifications
#### Competencies not in DWH (#121863)
**Problem**
- Competency datasources needs to be added to the V9 DWH
**Solution**
- Added competency datasources within the V9 DWH
#### Claim Report for Sage Import (#122871)
**Problem**
Datasource jpHRProcessRequestData needs to be added that contains the json response entries
**Solution**
Added datasource jpHRProcessRequestData within V9 Datawarehouse
# Version 9.1.131 (18 November 2024)
### People Management
#### Users cannot send Kudos - People group problem (#122263)
**Problem**
- When a user does not have an active / default people group, the My Team / My Department / My Company user lists don't load.
- This is incorrect, as for those views, it does not require the user to have a people group, and it will return only relevant people based on the reporting line/org.
**Solution:**
- Removed the check to not call getUsers when a user does not have an active people group.
#### Active people indicator shows employees as Future Dated when the appointment date is in the past (#121617)
**Problem**
- When hovering over the Active People count for a newly created ruleset, the count shows that the 1 person appointed is future-dated.
**Solution**
- Ensure that the person is not seen as future-dated but active
#### Support user visible on newly created ruleset (#121931)
**Problem**
- The support user is shown on the People Management Dashboard
**Solution**
- Hide the user from the front-end
#### Fit initials into bubble (#122322)
**Problem**
- The initials do not fit in the bubbles
**Solution**
- Make the font smaller
---
### Main Dashboard
#### Update size of middle block (#122320)
**Problem**
- The My Colleagues widget is bigger than the rest
**Solution**
- Align the widget with the rest of the widgets
---
### Global Search
#### Search field loses focus (#121885)
**Problem**
- You type a few characters, and then the page reloads to show the relevant filtered data, but it loses focus, and you have to click on it again to refine your search.
**Solution**
- After the result set has been filtered, place the focus back in the search box so that you can continue to refine without having to click in the box again.
---
### Imports
#### Disabilities duplicated (#121903)
**Problem**
- When reimporting a user the disabilities are duplicated and all disabilities added on the front end are deleted
- The importation of long org codes fails at the DB level.
- When creating a new user, if there are empty disabilities in the master data, the import fails with the object reference issue.
**Solution**
- Change the domain update of disabilities when importing as disabilities in the DB are not loaded
- Correct the length of the org code in the pre-validation
- Add checks for null disabilities when creating a user
#### Add Person AppointmentEndDate to MaterialisedUsers tables (#121349)
**Problem**
- Report builder materialised users fails
- When importing
- Notification users are not created
- Performance reporting lines are not updated
- Appointments are not updated for materialised users
- User data is lost when updating appointments or reporting line data
**Solution**
- The notification did not implement batch user materialisation and appointments

---
### Organisational Structure
#### Line Manager details spill off the page (#121877)
**Problem**
- With the Zoom at 90%, (values higher than 80%) the **Line Manager details** for the positions spill over the right border of the page.
**Solution**
- Wrap the text with the zoom
---
### Learning Management
#### Unable to view all Learning Portal contents once logged in using copied link (#122264)
**Problem**
- Opening the pathway shared link for V10 prevents navigation to the normal learning portal
**Solution**
- The portal link is cached when opening the lms portal on V10. Adjusted the logic to only cache the link if the menu item is used and not when a shared link is used.
#### Not able to link learning manage role to user (#122890)
**Problem**
- The role for Learning Administrator is not available in V9
**Solution**
- Create a Learning Administrator role
---
### Data Warehouse
#### Table consolidation and Data Dictionary cleanup (#121664)
**Problem**
- There is data in the Data Dictionary tables across tenants
- There are unused columns in the Datawarehouse tables
- There are tables in the Datawarehouse that can be combined
- There are columns in the Data Dictionary where the content of the column is unclear
This requires a rename of the alias of such columns
- Column names do not appear in an expected / logical order
**Solution**
- Cleanup data so that there is only Data Dictionary data in tenant 1
- Work through all columns in the Datawarehouse and identify unused columns
- Identify tables in the Datawarehouse that can be combined
- Review all columns and suggest wording where it is not clear what is stored in the column
- Order columns in a logical order
- Ensure data sources appear in their correct categories
---
### Performance Management
#### Cannot submit agreement (#122734)
**Problem**
- Error when attempting to save a comment.
- The section item weight must be greater than 0.
- The section weight is, however, 5%, and the employee is still busy capturing the remainder of the information and balancing the scorecard.
**Solution**
- Skip validation for weight on values and behaviours when setting auto distribution is enabled
#### Move tooltips up for buttons on the agreement page (#118757)
**Problem**
- When you view an agreement, several buttons can be found at the bottom of the screen. Some of them display a tooltip on hover, but it sometimes gets in the way then the click is not registered.
**Solution**
- Move the tooltips to display above the buttons
#### As a Performance Administrator viewing the Review Setups, I want to have a setting to determine whether the timeline should show on Performance Dashboard for the end-user (#121303)
**Problem**
- People requested to not see the timeline on the Dashboard
**Solution**
- Add a setting to hide the timeline on the Dashboard
#### As a Performance Administrator viewing the Review Setups, I want to have a setting to determine whether the Agreements can be edited when using the API to create Agreements (#121302)
**Problem**
- No functionality existed to lock an agreement from editing
**Solution**
- Added new settings
[](https://signature.signifyhr.co.za/uploads/images/gallery/2024-11/GdQadNRoTb0UWiGI-image.png)
#### As a person doing the evaluation, I want a Save button to save my progress for later (#122391)
- Added a Save button before the Submit button on the evaluator page
- The Save has been added on the Back arrow as well
- This is to allow the person to add ratings and comments and then come back later
[](https://signature.signifyhr.co.za/uploads/images/gallery/2024-11/HbU7rBnBv9BYHrB6-image.png)
#### As an employee creating the evaluations, I want to see the people's name, surname and email (#122390)
**Business Rules**
- When the setting is enabled for the Manager and Employee not to see the results, and the employee and/or manager is creating the evaluations, the selected people's info should be shown
- Do not show the results on the create evaluation modal
- Summary modal stays as is

**Summary**
[](https://signature.signifyhr.co.za/uploads/images/gallery/2024-11/pKN1L7g1SRLOKd5L-image.png)
- When the setting is selected that the employee may not see the results, but the manager can, then the same as for the employee above should be implemented
- For the Manager, it stays as is
[](https://signature.signifyhr.co.za/uploads/images/gallery/2024-11/biHlEfYq9wdAKbbs-image.png)
**Manager**
[](https://signature.signifyhr.co.za/uploads/images/gallery/2024-11/Q3Kd5OYXHrbRecp4-image.png)

#### Action Label Requires Correction (#122015)
**Problem**
- When a user receives an evaluation request link via email, when the link is opened the Action Heading is displayed as ACTION.ACTION - this should be ACTION
**Solution**
- Added the translation for Action
---
### System Menu
#### The translate button on the My Heading field does not navigate the user to the Menu Heading field translation field (#121904)
**Problem**
- When clicking on the **Translate** button on the Menu Heading field, I am navigated to the first item on the translation list.
**Solution**
- Ensure that the user is taken directly to the **Menu Heading** field on the list of translations.
---
### Report Builder
### Changes to date field (#121255)
**Problem**
- When right-clicking on a date field in Report Builder, the following options show and there is no option for time:
[](https://signature.signifyhr.co.za/uploads/images/gallery/2024-11/6SgAw5tMFfo2yBVx-image.png)
**Solution**
- Change the current one above to Date and time (Default)
- This time shows as: 2024-10-07T07:30:53.8235783
- Show as our standard date/time function, but aligned to the selected culture and timezone. In the above example it should be: 2024-10-07 9:30:58
- Add another option for Date only
- This option must show the date without the time component
---
### API
#### As a System Owner, I want to create an API call to import Performance Agreements from a third-party system (#121301)
Business Rules
- An API call should be created to import the agreements from a third-party system
- The agreements will be imported per employee for a Review Setup linked to the Review Year for a Review Item as an Overall Approved Agreement
- The fields needed for the API are:
- Ruleset Code
- Username\*
- Review Year\*
- Review Setup\*
- Review Item\*
- Section\*
- Section Weight
- Perspective
- Perspective Weight
- Is Perspective Library Item
- KPA
- KPA Weight
- Is KPA Library Item
- KPI
- KPI Weight
- KPI Measures
- KPI Ratings
- KPI Activities
- Is KPI Library Item
- Person Rating\*
- Person Comment
- Manager Rating\*
- Manager Comment
- Final Rating
- Approved (Use Approve Contract .approvecontractperiod
- If there is no rating, the record should be rejected
- The Manager Rating is the Final Rating
- When only the Manager Rating column has been populated, make the Final Rating the same as the Manager Rating
- When a score of 0 is sent through the API call for a specific review item, the review item should be excluded
**Problem**
- In the Datawarehouse for jpAppointments, the incorrect appointment entry was removed due to Datawarehouse logic that only keeps the max appointment entry per user, JobPosition
**Solution**
- Adjusted the SQL script to exclude Famous Brands that will remove historic records and only keep the max appointment entry per user, JobPosition
---
# Version 9.1.129 (30 October 2024)
### Performance Management
#### Approved ratings that are empty (#122271)
**Problem**
- There are contracts that have FinalScoreApproved = true, but none of the items have a Final Rating.
- This should be impossible, as when submitting ratings for approval, there is front-end validation to ensure all items have ratings.
- Also, I cannot find another means to replicate this issue.
**Solution**
- To try to mitigate the problem, additional checks were added on the domain-side validation for the rating approval to ensure that when final ratings are submitted, all items must have a rating.
#### Incorrect ordering of the ratings (#122246)
**Problem**
- Ratings are shown as they are added
**Solution**
- Change the ordering to look at the Setup's order
#### Move Employee Scorecard from 1 setup to another (#121906)
**Problem**
- The bulk move message is lost when a failure occurs or is only available in the services log
- The add of the user on the people group fails due to being unauthenticated in the backend process.
**Solution**
- Return message form move command and concatenate
- Only include users when there are any users to include
- Allow anonymous linking of people group items when the ruleset is provided.
#### Display of Original Final score decimals (#122029)
**Problem**
- The original Score is not shown with 2 decimals
**Solution**
- Change the display of the original score shown in the tooltip after importing a calibrated score, to show 2 decimals
#### Misalignment with the table headers (#122076)
**Problem**
- When the final rating is excluded, and the employee views that finalized contract there is a misalignment of the table cell and the headers.
**Solution**
- Fix the alignment caused by the final rating being excluded.
#### Final Ratings Calculations (#122077)
**Problem**
- The scores that are displayed on the user banner when viewing a contract has an issue on the calculation when you rate an item, or change a rating, and when the sections have different max ratings.
- The rated score is calculated per section and summed instead of using the percentage scores and then multiplying by the max year score.
**Solution**
- Fix calculation to correctly base of Performance Max Year and not rated score per section totalled.
- Also, the same fix on UserRatingScores saves (Saved for informational purposes.)
---
### Report Builder
#### Unable to edit publish status on Report (#121524)
**Problem**
- When trying to publish a report it does not save the published value and also does not indicate the saved snack message. Modal also did not close.
**Solution**
- Model validation failed because of recent People Group additions, excluding PeopleGroupList from model state validation on Update.
- Also picked up checkboxes from report form was getting serialized in duplicate, once for each state the checkbox had (once for false and then if it toggled another state for true).
- Added code to filter out the duplicates.
#### No data is available on the performance status report (#122008)
**Problem**
- Timeout in PG refresh for 83K users
- Incorrect syntax when username or position had accents
**Solution**
- Extend the timeout to 10min when calculating the PG
- Add exclusion of or path when listing users
- Make the max received bytes larger for the channel as 83k exceeds the 4MB default
- Escape accents in username, surname and position title
- Change query to delete the users that have been removed from the PG and add the users that have been added to the PG
---
### SigniChat
#### Styling on Chat Search box to be made standard (#120691)
**Problem**
- The S**earch** box styling on the chat header is not correct.
**Solution**
- Implement the standard search box as in the Main Banner
# Version 9.1.128 (25 October 2024)
### Performance Management
#### Move Employee Scorecard from 1 setup to another (#121906)
**Problem**
- When a custom people group is linked to an org node that includes a child node it is seen as an org people group rather than a custom. A source review setup that is linked to this custom people group cannot be moved because it is not seen as a custom people group
**Solution**
- Remove the filter for custom people groups
---
### Report Builder
#### People Group not applied when exporting report (#121917)
**Problem**
- Users are included in the people group of org units where they have historical appointments. They are then visible on the PG of the previous appointment org nodes as well as the current active appointment org node.
**Solution**
- Users should only be included in the people group of the org unit on which they are currently actively appointed.
- Filter the org unit People Group Users select on appointment start and end date
---
### Data Warehouse
#### People Profile Report (#121987)
**Problem**
- Fields missing when creating a report
**Solution**
Added the below fields to display under the Appointments
- Occupational Category
- Occupational Level
- OFO Code
---
# Version 9.1.127 (24 October 2024)
### Performance Management
#### Cannot submit - Phase not active (#121535)
**Problem**
- The phase active check was not taking the end date as inclusive, it matches against the date only.
- This means that if the phase ends on 14 October, it does not include the current day. All the period/phase dates are inclusive.
**Solution**
- Change the calculation for phase active to check the end date as inclusive.
#### Print/View button not showing in the contract (#121816)
**Problem**
- When in the rating phase and the manager and user scores are approved or the final score is approved a user cannot see the print button under more options.
**Solution**
- In this case, rather return the print button than nothing to allow the user to print the agreement.
#### People's names are showing on the Evaluation Summary in the Objective Setting Phase (#120919)
**Problem**
- When the 'Show the results anonymously' setting is active, the usernames still show while in the Objective Setting Phase.
**Solution**
- Implemented a fix to ensure that the user names are not showing while the setting is active and in that phase.
#### Ratings Deadline for Mid-Year Review Notification dates incorrect (#121814)
**Problem**
- The data placeholders for the PM emails are not formatted according to the default language selected for the ruleset
**Solution**
- The culture formatting that uses the default languages for the following PM emails has been added:
- Objectve Setting Deadline
- Rating Deadline
- Check-in Deadline
- Check-in Started
- Evaluation Sent
#### Add a hand icon on the items that can be selected when copying a Template (#120056)
**Problem**
- The cursor does not change to show an item can be selected
**Solution**
- Enable the selection hand to show an item that can be selected
#### Notification Status Displaying Incorrectly (#120055)
**Problem**
- An evaluation was submitted and the evaluator submitted a rating and comment - however, it is displaying as though it has not yet been sent (Notification & Status are incorrect) this is problematic as it would allow the deletion of an already submitted evaluation.
**Solution**
- Ensure the statuses are pulled through on all pages
#### Backspace does not clear V&B weight (#113302)
**Problem**
- When the setting is to distribute the weights of **Values & Behaviour** items, you can't clear the text field with the backspace key. It stops in front of the last number.
**Solution**
- Enable the clear of the weight field when using the backspace key
#### Username overlaps when it is very long (#113525)
**Problem**
- When you have a long username, it overlaps with the instructions
**Solution**
- Add ellipses when a username has more than a certain number of characters and then have it displayed in a tooltip on hover
---
### People Management
#### Banner Image not updated on Manage Profile Page (#121918)
**Problem**
- The ruleset's default banner was not displayed on the card view when the user had no selected banner
**Solution**
- Include the ruleset ID, when generating the image paths to ensure the current schemas default is used if it exists rather than R1s default
#### Cannot delete the alternative email (#121868)
**Problem**
- The alternate email cannot be cleared
**Solution**
- Remove the default domain functionality when updating contact details to empty
#### Password reset confirmation (#110536)
**Problem**
- The modal shows incorrect wording
**Solution**
- Instead of showing "The Person" the modal now shows the person's email address
---
### Imports
#### Improve reporting line sync - reporting lines created with reporting line import from V9 to V8 (#119203)
**Problem**
- Currently reporting lines are synced to V8 from V9, row for row
**Solution**
- Do reporting line sync in bulk or batches, at least
- Only do incremental updates where there are changes, not all every time
---
### Report Builder
#### People Group not applied when exporting report (#121917)
**Problem**
- Exporting a report on ReportBuilder does not filter based on the selected People Group.
**Solution**
- Send through the selected People Group ID to the Export Report handler.
####
#### Terminated people not showing up on Report (#121805)
**Problem**
- The people group on the report builder only contains data for active users; thus, reports cannot be drawn for terminated or future-date users.
**Solution**
- Remove the caching select that only contains active users
- Include all users for the target audience when selecting data from the job profiler
- Ensure the query does not break when the position is not linked to an active org node
#### Changes to Styling on Full Report page (#121257)
**Problem**
- When viewing the **full report**, and when there are many columns, the paging buttons are off the screen and cannot be seen.
**Solution**
- Move the paging buttons left
#### Changes to styling on the Preview pane (#121256)
**Problem**
- No message is displayed to inform the person that only a certain amount of people is displayed
**Solution**
- Add a message:
- Only the **top 10 records** are shown. Click on the **View Full Report** button.
---
### Data Warehouse
#### Create a workflow to deploy DWH packages to UAT and Live (#119232)
**Problem**
- Datawarehouse packages are deployed by hand at present and are a manual process
**Solution**
- Create a Github Actions workflow to deploy DWH packages to UAT and Live
- There are possibly 4 steps:
- - Create a Powershell script to build and package the V9 DWH project for connection managers that connect to master (juliet\\sql2019)
- Extend the Powershell script to deploy the packages to master
- Extend the Powershell script to update the Data Dictionary
- Finally, create a Github Actions workflow that will run this Powershell script on WindsorHytbrid with input parameters - the input parameters will be discussed at this point
#### Add Unapproved and Approved Final Score (#121702)
**Problem**
- The unapproved shows as approved
**Solution**
- Add the Unapproved score to the DWH
---
### Tenant Management
#### Notification sent out based on historic dates (#120742)
**Problem**
- Notifications are sent out for historical licences
**Solution**
- Only send notifications for current active licences
---
### Main Dashboard
#### Unable to cycle banner images after New ones are selected (#120501)
**Problem**
- When a different set of images is selected or the selection is changed in any way and the user saves these changes, after these changes have been effected the User is unable to use the navigation arrows to cycle through the image selections
**Solution**
- Refresh the images to allow the images to cycle through
#### Months of the year not translated on the Dashboard (#120788)
**Problem**
- The months on the calendar strip at the top of the Dashboard are not translated.
**Solution**
- Add translation for the months on the timeline
---
### SigniChat
#### The terminated employee shows as a member of the Signichat group (#121260)
**Problem**
- The members listed include terminated employees
**Solution**
- Terminated people are removed from the People Groups. The same logic has been implemented on the SigniChat Groups
---
### Job Profiler
#### The system does not prevent a user from Unpublishing a Job Profiler with Active Positions (#120455)
**Problem**
- The system does not prevent a user from Unpublishing a Job Profiler with Active Positions.
**Solution**
- Prevent an Admin from "Unpublishing" a Job Profile with Active Positions.
- Add a tooltip:
- The Job Profile cannot be unpublished because there are Active Positions linked.
---
### Organisational Structure
#### Employee import error (#121076)
**Problem**
- The Employee Import allows an org code that is longer than 100 characters and then trims the code during validation which causes unexpected results.
**Solution**
- First, validate that the org length is not longer than 100 characters before validating the org structure.
---
# Version 9.1.126 (21 October 2024)
### Performance Management
#### Unlocking of a Scorecard (#121195)
**Problem**
- A 0.00 score rating is different than an excluded rating (it means you did REALLY badly). 0.00 ratings are allowed but on the ratings, submission check the !(level3\[name\] as Rating)?.score incorrectly flags a 0 score as true.
- Additionally picked up on the main dashboard that the contract score calculation had a hardcoded max rating of 5, this is incorrect and should use the performance year max score.
**Solution**
- Change the validation check to specifically check whether rating score is null and not excluded (implies no rating yet).
Correctly calculate dashboard PM score using PM Year max rating.
#### Phase Dates (#121535)
**Problem**
- The phase active check did not take the end date as inclusive; it matches against the date only. This means that if the phase ends on 14 October, it does not include the current day. All the period/phase dates are inclusive.
**Solution**
- Change the calculation for phase active to check the end date as inclusive.
---
### Job Profiler
#### OFO Codes cannot be selected (#121425)
**Problem**
- The on click events were only set once when the general tab was loaded, causing some rows that are not on the first page to not have an onclick event set.
**Solution**
- Updated `job-profile.js` to set click events on dynamically created rows within the OFO codes table using the DataTable plugin.
---
### Identity
#### MS login improvement (#121045)
**Problem**
- Users who log in with MS are often (when logged in with one account) not given the option to "See" which account they logged into and then the message "User is not active" is displayed.
**Solution**
- Change the "User is not active" message to "User \[username\] is not active.
- In the case of normal logins, this should display the username e.g. User \[username\] is not active
- In the case of any third-party login, it should display
- **User \[person@thirdparty.co.za\] is not active** so the username at least displays for fault-finding purposes
- In addition, when logging in with MS display the following message in addition to the above:
- **If you want to log in with a different Microsoft account, please sign out here and log in with the correct account. After signing out, return to this page to log in again.**
- **sign out here** opens [https://www.office.com/](https://www.office.com/)
---
### SigniChat
#### Timestamps on Sent view is 2 hours behind (#121259)
**Problem**
- Timestamp is 2 hours behind
**Solution**
- Implement the UTC time rule
---
### System Access
#### Empty pages on some V8 menu items (#121452)
**Problem**
- The controller mapping for the default theme URL caused the Additional services controller to be intercepted on load. This resulted in the page never loading.
**Solution**
- Added custom path for additional service pages
- Included user-id in the query string object
---
### Imports
#### Copy wwwroot/content in the build phase (#120305)
**Problem**
- Content/import samples should be synced to the image while building
- Also, there are image folders that should copy
**Solution**
- Add a step to Dockerfile to copy the content folder from the build to the final image
---
### Data Warehouse
#### PAS report add Contracting Completed Status (#121603)
**Problem**
- The client wants an extra column added showing a ‘**Contracting Completed**’ status when the following 2 columns are both TRUE:
- Employee Objective Setting Started
- Manager Objective Setting Started
**Solution**
- In Datasource "Contract Periods", I have added the requested field "Contracting Completed" within the Report Builder.
#### Create a workflow to deploy DWH packages to UAT and Live (#119232)
**Problem**
- Data Warehouse packages are deployed by hand at present and are a manual process
**Solution**
- Create a Github Actions workflow to deploy DWH packages to UAT and Live
#### Actual Values available in the DWH (#119385)
**Problem**
- With the Interpolation development, the actual score should also be added to see the interpolated score
**Solution**
- Added new fields to the DataSource "ContractPeriodSectionItems"
- Logic has been added for when the Interpolated is equal to "true", it will then update the User-, Manager - and Final Rating scores where the scores should be the same
#### V9 PM Reports (#119854)
- Within the Data Source "Contract Periods", the requested PM stats fields are available now on the Report Builder.
- For Data Source "Appointments", the requested new field "Grade Names" has also been added to the Report Builder.
**Contract Periods:**
- Agreement Check-In ratio
**How will this work?**
| **Number of KPIs** | **Number of Check-ins** | **Number of KPIs checked in** | **Agreement check-in ratio** |
| 10 | 23 | 8 | 80.0% |
- You have 10 KPI's
- Total number of check-in across the KPI's is 23
- Check-ins per KPI's is 8
**Number of KPIs Checked-in / Number of KPIs \*100 = Agreement check-in ratio**
- Add a step on the DWH SSIS packages to clear out the DWH people group users table nightly.
---
### Report Builder
#### Have the People Group by default to use when running the report (#115616)
- Always include the People Group filter when adding a report with people data
- This is added as a dropdown in the Report Filter Options Accordion
- This option is always the first one
- The Active People Group will be used as default but can be changed
When viewing the report will be an option to change the PG
[](https://signature.signifyhr.co.za/uploads/images/gallery/2024-10/tmWH5xPKl9rSzz2p-image.png)
#### Modify Report Builder Stored Procedure (#115618)
- Modify Report Builder Stored Procedure to include join to DWH people group users table when ‘Users’ data source is included on the report
- Alternatively, we might be able to set up the DWH table as a JOIN to Users, this table should just never be selectable as a data source on the Data Dictionary
# Version 9.1.124 (21 October 2024)
### Imports
#### Data file upload (#121204)
**Problem**
- When the ruleset does not use payroll connectors the import breaks when updating user data
- When the username has been accented the import of appointments fails
- When the job profiles are imported without a code, only the first job profile is imported into the sheets, and the import fails at the positions step.
When the org codes are not provided the import uses the ruleset name as the root node rather than the org level 1 when constructing the org path and the position step fails because the org could not be found.
- When you save on the integration tab and the content server validation fails the other settings on the page are not saved.
When the content server has a valid password and you save the validation fails because the password is not sent to the server.
**Solution**
- Initialised payroll connector as null rather than new
- Sanitise the username in dapper queries when accents are present
- Add fallback to the title when the job code is empty when determining the unique jobs to create
- Use the org level 1 when creating the path
---
### Ruleset Management
#### User Name Changes (#119426)
**Problem**
- When you save on the integration tab and the content server validation fails the other settings on the page are not saved
- When the content server has a valid password and you save the validation fails because the password is not sent to the server
**Solution**
- Change the order of the actions in the update so the content server is updated at the end
- Change the selector that retrieves the value of the password field
#### Handle invalid ruleset error better (#120938)
**Problem**
- A vague error message is displayed when the ruleset cannot be determined from the URL
**Solution**
- Display a more appropriate message when the URL is incorrect
---
### HR Processes
#### Claims Report (#120508)
**Problem**
- On the Historical Requests tab, the display limit is currently 10
- When clicking on Load More it does not appear to work and still only displays 10, when there are more than 10 items in the database
- The problem is with the container ID used for each tab ('Awaiting', 'Open', 'Historic')
- All 2 use the same partial to populate information
- This partial had a wrapper div with an id="process-requests-container."
- When clicking on the next displayed tab, it loads the partial into the next v-tab—"container," with the result being that there is more than 1 element with id="process-requests-container."
- When the Load More then tries to add the next batch of requests, it looks for #process-requests-container and adds the requests to the first element it finds which adds the historical records to the 'Awaiting' tab
**Solution**
- Changed the partial wrapper div id to be determined based on the selected tab, changed the page hidden fields to be class references to not have duplicate id elements present
- Changed the Load More functionality to look for the specific tab container ID and add the items to that to ensure the correct elements are used
---
### Performance Management
#### Add domain validation (#112141)
**Problem**
- There is a rare occurrence where an L3 weight ends up being 0% which causes unwanted problems on the contract
- To address that it does not need to add domain-level validation to ensure that weights are always greater than 0% on a domain-level
- However, with this change, an additional change needed to be made on the Templates with regard to the Hide Scores setting, which only flagged the first item as 100% and the rest as 0% since it did not matter at the time
- When the contract is created from the template and then submitted the weights are distributed
**Solution**
- Add domain validation to ensure captured weights are greater than 0
- Distribute weights on the template when hide scores are enabled
#### Cannot Print Agreements (#121253)
**Problem**
- When impersonating and clicking on View / Print an error is shown indicating the user does not have access to the contract, the impersonation is not getting sent through to the view/print pages.
**Solution**
- Include the ImpersonateUserId on all the view / print links if available to allow the impersonator to view / print the contract.
- Fix the issue with auto weight distribution when hiding scores and allow perspectives off
- Fix weights displaying on the template when hiding scores on
- Fix add key competencies breaking when hiding scores on
#### Ratings (#120918)
**Problem**
- For the next action and stage of the contract, the next action seems to display the correct translation.
**Solution**
- Change the wording generically to:
- Complete and submit the Manager Ratings
---
### Data Warehouse
#### Claims Report (#120508)
- Corrected the update of ApprovalStatus
# Version 9.1.123 (7 October 2024)
### People Management
#### Unable to access People Management module (#121118)
**Problem**
- When a user opens the people dashboards LM is terminated or the LM's position is deleted or inactive the dashboard breaks
**Solution**
- Change the active check to get the user to use the latest appointment of the user rather than the active appointment.
- Remove the check on the position's deleted or active fields
- Added a catch when loading the manager's data to ensure the people dashboard does not break because the LM's details could not be loaded
#### The content of the box remains unchanged even though people are filtered on selected subgroups (#121164)
**Problem**
- On People view when changing the active people group from the dropdown the users are filtered correctly, but the dropdown selected value does not change along with it, it remains on the 1ste item.
**Solution**
- On item change also set the selected option state variable so it sets the selected value on the dropdown correct
---
### Theme Management
#### Menu Portal Language Translation not working (#121198)
**Problem**
- When the default language on one ruleset is en-US and you open a new ruleset where the default is en-UK the cookie storing the culture is not cleared.
- When a single language is active the cookie is then used to set the preferred language even though it is not active causing incorrect translations to display
**Solution**
- Clear the cookie when switching theme URLs
- When storing the preferred language if it is not part of the enabled languages of the ruleset do not store data in the language rather clear the culture to use the ruleset default going forward
# Version 9.1.122 (7 October 2024)
### Exports
#### Performance Agreement Status Report - Editing after download (#109250)
**Problem**
- When you export a list or report to Excel you cannot edit it before you unblock the content.
**Solution**
- Removed the sheet protection that blocked editing on the sheet, object, and scenario, which is unnecessary.
---
### Performance Management
#### Cannot copy the Manager ratings to the final ratings (#121067)
**Problem**
- Manager ratings could not be copied to the final.
**Solution**
- Ensure manager ratings can be copied to the final.
#### When opening the ratings, the loading of ratings takes a long time and shows an incorrect message (#120771)
**Problem**
- On slow connections when opening the ratings modal for an item, the "no ratings configured" alert box is shown until after the ratings have loaded.
**Solution**
- Added a flag to indicate whether the ratings have loaded yet and instead show the Loading component. Once loaded if still no ratings are returned then show alert.
#### Sections are shown in red in the scrollspy list (#118744)
**Problem**
- During check-ins, the side scrollspy menu is showing in red/invalid. Even though the objectives phase has passed and all items weights should already be correct.
**Solution**
- The scrollspy check to determine whether any section or child items are invalid was recently corrected/improved, on the check-ins, the item weights were not returned which resulted in the invalid being displayed.
- Included the item weights on the check-in fetch to allow the validation to work correctly.
### Able to save blank perspectives (#118739)
**Problem**
- When adding a perspective and only providing the weight the user could add an empty perspective when clicking on Save Add New. Save correctly validates that weight must be > 0 and perspective item must be selected.
**Solution**
- Add perspective-selected validation to save and add a new function.
### Approve Employee Self-Rating (#120785)
**Problem**
- The start date of the period is not included when ignored end dates are true
**Solution**
- Ensure the start date of the period is included when calculating if the period is active
#### Hide the second column of the Interpolation Ratings section (#121065)
**Problem**
- The interpolation descriptions on the print view need to be hidden
**Solution**
- Hide interpolation description on print view as it clutters the screen
#### Reset the modal after entering an actual value (#121040)
**Problem**
- The rating modal was not reset after entering the actual value.
**Solution**
- Ensure the modal is reset after entering the value and opening the modal again.
---
### Mobile APP
#### PM Menu item does not appear (121074)
**Problem**
- The account API call to get the active products on a ruleset has roll-specific authorization. This presents an issue on the Mobile App which uses this call to determine which V9 products are active, resulting in the call failing auth and it returning no products being active on V9.
- None of the V9 product icons then show for a normal user only for users that are ruleset admins.
**Solution**
- Removed the roll-specific requirement from the call.
- Checked on MVC where it does utilize this call a roll-specific check is already in place so should not affect Web functionality too much.
---
### Datawarehouse
#### Create workflow to deploy DWH packages to UAT and Live (#119232)
**Problem**
- Datawarehouse packages are deployed by hand at present and are a manual process
**Solution**
- Create a Github Actions workflow to deploy DWH packages to UAT and Live
- There are possibly 4 steps:
- - Create a Powershell script to build and package the V9 DWH project for connection managers that connect to master (juliet\\sql2019)
- Extend the Powershell script to deploy the packages to master
- Extend the Powershell script to update the Data Dictionary
- Finally, create a Github Actions workflow that will run this Powershell script on WindsorHytbrid with input parameters - the input parameters will be discussed at this point
---
### Main Dashboard
#### Investigate unnecessary DB calls in v9 modules (#110710)
**Problem**
- Performance issue on the Main Dashboard
**Solution**
- Some unnecessary calls were being made in a parent and child component, where the value could just be passed as a param to the child component (modal). Also, combined two http get requests into a single request. Each request returned a single property from the same controller, so it made sense to rather combine it.
# Version 9.1.121 (7 October 2024)
### People Management
#### Username to be removed on card view (#120911)
**Problem**
- Clients do not want the username to display on the Card View
**Solution**
- Hide the username on the card view of the People Management dashboard
#### Pop-up stays on screen after selecting a People Groups (#120423)
**Problem**
- The tooltip stays on the screen after hovering
**Solution**
- Make sure the tooltip does not stay on the page after navigating away
---
### Identity and Authorisations
#### Clicking Cancel on the Disclaimer pane shows a white screen indefinitely (#120664)
**Problem**
- When a user clicks on the Cancel button on the Disclaimer page, the user is navigated to a white browser page.
**Solution**
- Ensure the redirect when clicking on the Cancel button takes the user to the login page
---
### Ruleset Setup
#### Products setup on Report Builder Product tile unresponsive (#102675)
**Problem**
- The Product Setup menu option is displayed although there is no setup
**Solution**
- Hide the Product Setup menu option
#### Styling on Disclaimer to be tweaked (#120659)
**Problem**
- The Disclaimer message needs styling changes
**Solution**
- Removed the superfluous vertical scroll bar on the right-hand side when an image has been added
- Move the image and Disclaimer text to the right, instead of right up against the pane's border.
- Show the link
#### Default Badges did not copy when the new Tenant and Ruleset was created (#114454)
**Problem**
- When creating a new tenant the default badges are not created. Also found an issue when creating only a new ruleset.
**Solution**
- Implemented changes to create default badges when a new tenant is created and when a new ruleset is created.
#### System Menu: No indication that changes will be lost (#106936)
**Problem**
- When changing anything in a menu item and then navigating away without clicking on 'Save' the changes are lost.
**Solution**
- Added a warning message that unsaved changes will be lost
---
### Imports
#### Error when people try to log in (#120909)
**Problem**
- When an existing user is imported a duplicate claim is made for the given name.
- The family\_name was updated to given\_name in AspNetUserClaims.
- When the user logs in the page breaks
**Solution**
- Ensure the surname is added as family\_name and not the given name
#### User name changes (#119426)
**Problem**
- When a username changes when importing a new person if the external ID is not used the person will be created as a new user on the ruleset
**Solution**
- Add settings to use additional fields to update the username
[](https://signature.signifyhr.co.za/uploads/images/gallery/2024-09/mjZP5SNmDB9c8CPO-image.png)
- Check on the settings in order starting with employee code, ID number and external ID to try and find the user to change the username for
- Should the unique field be in duplicate either in the import file or on the ruleset throw an appropriate error
- Add checks to ensure if the user was seen to have a username change but failed that it is not created as a new user.
- When exporting data via the ListUserExport API the start date in the group and the start date in the company are populated
- When a page is left open for an extended period the user will be redirected to the error page after the next click should the error not be handled
---
### Performance Management
#### When rating KPI the area is not clickable anymore (#116413)
**Problem**
- To rate an item, the user must click the Rate / Change buttons.
- This is slightly inconvenient and the request was made to allow clicking anywhere on the row to access the item to rate (where it does not overlap with other functionality Eg the action buttons).
**Solution**
- Make the entire row clickable to allow rating regardless of whether the final score is approved, and update the person rating active configuration accordingly.
---
### Technical
#### Domain Errors (#113747)
**Problem**
- The JSON errors were displayed as the page content
**Solution**
- Refactor the exception handler
- Add redirects in the auth controller for expiry
- Refactor error controller for Ajax and MVC loads, cater for session expiry
- Add retry on the general error page to reload
- Add session expired page with logout button for MVC, allow Ajax to directly logout when the session is expired.
- Reduce the batch size of exception consumer
---
### Translations
#### Static translations missing (#118237)
**Problem**
- The static translations for all the core supported languages are not added, which are:
- - de, af-Za, en-UK, en-US, AM, pt-MZ, fr-CF, ar-SA
- Static translations are not visible on the language module and cannot be changed from the front end and needs to be added on the Identity service.
- So far it looks like only German has been completely translated.
**Solution**
- Added static translations for all the core supported languages
---
### HR Processes
#### Non-descriptive error displayed when adding process with name & code which already exists (#119243)
**Problem**

**Solution**
- Prevent an Admin from "Unpublishing" a Job Profile that has Active Positions.
---
### Tenant Management
#### Error when creating tenant without specifying a reseller (#119573)
**Problem**
- When not specifying a Reseller and the Create button is clicked, a non-descriptive error is given.
- This does not happen when a reseller has been selected.
**Solution**
- Add a message:
- Additional service creation could not be created
---
### New Functionality
#### Performance Management: Interpolation (#115065)
#####
##### Introduction
Interpolation is used to map Actual Values to the Rating Scales. During the Rating Phase, Actual Values are entered and then mapped to give a rating.
This functionality is available when creating Templates, when an agreement is Copied, as well as when a Blank Agreement is created.
##### Mapping Setup - Objective Setting Phase
When adding/editing a KPI, a new toggle is available
- Automatic score calculation (Interpolation)
[](https://signature.signifyhr.co.za/uploads/images/gallery/2024-09/PJGBH2hgq8MTzZLv-image.png)
When this toggle is enabled, the mappings open where the Actual Values can be configured
[](https://signature.signifyhr.co.za/uploads/images/gallery/2024-09/NYpFWMojiLPiazpk-image.png)
When the Actual Values have been inserted:
[](https://signature.signifyhr.co.za/uploads/images/gallery/2024-09/NBVI5EPjdEYnSePr-image.png)
##### Ratings Phase
When rating a KPI, the Actual Values are inserted instead of selecting a rating.
[](https://signature.signifyhr.co.za/uploads/images/gallery/2024-09/oVfn53OKkiarA78A-image.png)
A rating can also be excluded:
[](https://signature.signifyhr.co.za/uploads/images/gallery/2024-09/iHFazqLhpxGMvWvr-image.png)
When the Actual Value has been inserted, the score is shown:

The score is shown after the rating has been saved
[](https://signature.signifyhr.co.za/uploads/images/gallery/2024-09/VvcBMdmZNBlEPtJI-image.png)
##### View / Print
When opening the Print View, the Interpolation ratings are also shown:

---
### Performance Management
#### PM contracts without PDP's (#119221)
**Problem**
- Functionality does not allow a user to submit an agreement if there are no items linked to a section
**Solution**
- Added functionality to allow a user to submit agreements with no items in a section when the section weight is 0%. Excl Primary Goals section.
---
### Identity and Authorisations
#### Unable to log into newly created ruleset (#120777)
**Problem**
- Cannot log into a newly created Ruleset
**Solution**
- Ensure the user is created during the Ruleset creation process
---
### HR Processes
#### Approver seeing item to approve on Dashboard even though they are not the next approver (#120552)
**Problem**
- The user, who is the 3rd approver, is seeing an item to approve on their dashboard. Still, when navigating to the Awaiting Your Approval page, the item is not shown yet, since the previous approver (approver 2) has yet to approve the request.
**Solution**
- Ensure the approval items are only shown when the person needs to approve a request.
---
### Ruleset Setup
#### Unable to deselect English (United Kingdom) on the dropdown (#120576)
**Problem**
- Cannot deselect English (United Kingdom) from the Available Languages dropdown
**Solution**
- Only the default language selected will be disabled in the available languages dropdown.
# Version 9.1.118 (23 September 2024)
### Performance Management
#### Internal People List loading requires optimization (#120320)
**Problem**
- The loading of Internal People takes too long
**Solution**
- Optimise the query that brings back the list of people
#### The evaluation icon not showing on the agreement (#119959)
**Problem**
- The issue is that a review setup with its review periods is linked to more than 1 review year.
Eg Managers Review Setup with Mid-year and Final-Year is used on FY2023 and FY2024
- When the contract detail is retrieved and it determines whether or not to show the evaluations it checks whether the evaluation due date is captured for the period (Mid-Year) but does not filter based on the Year.
- This means it technically finds 2 Mid-year review items , with 1 having an evaluation date set and the other not.
- It picks the first one and then returns.
- This is why it may also appear to work 'randomly' because of the natural ordering of the query the one with the evaluation date sometimes gets picked first.
**Solution**
- The query now also takes into account the ReviewYear of the contract to ensure the correct review item dates are retrieved.
#### Add functionality to close the evaluation and show as wrong person on summary (#120155)
- When the toggle is selected, and submitted, mark the evaluation as completed
- Items to evaluate is then ex 0 / 6
[](https://signature.signifyhr.co.za/uploads/images/gallery/2024-09/OgtrqfeD4zRBXIHB-image.png)
On the Evaluation summary, show in the comment the toggle wording:

[](https://signature.signifyhr.co.za/uploads/images/gallery/2024-09/kxV5obyTuazKD6VT-image.png)
#### The final score in the system is not the same as in the Performance Agreement Status report (#119225)
**Problem**
- There is a rounding issue on the DWH and therefore the scores are not matched
**Solution**
- Create custom rounding function to force round half up rounding and replace toFixed usages
####
#### The manager’s general comments are not visible in the employee's contract (#119923)
**Problem**
**Solution**
- Always show General Comments to both parties
---
### Ruleset Management
#### No load indicator is displayed on the screen when clicking on the Ruleset or Cancel button (#102903)
**Problem**
- There is no loading indicator when clicking on a Ruleset
**Solution**
- Implemented the loading indicator
---
### Languages
#### Add default culture en-GB (#114371)
**Problem**
- Currently, the date displayed in the V8 system is American and this causes the date picker not to work
**Solution**
- Replace en-US/en-UK with en-GB as the default language
---
### People Management
#### Fix the styling of the Manage Person button (#113511)
**Problem**
- Styling is not standard
**Solution**
- Make the button a standard button
---
### Identity
#### SSO issues (#120492)
**Problem**
- The SSO integration between V8 and V9 not working
**Solution**
With the update to .NET 8, the user identity ID is now retrieved from the 'nameidentifier' claim instead of the 'sub' claim.
# Version 9.1.117 (13 September 2024)
### Technical
- Revert .NET 8 upgrade
# Version 9.1.116 (13 September 2024)
### Performance Management
#### Check-in phase - The edit last comments button is not available on the employee check-in screen (#120366)
**Problem**
- When an employee loads a check-in comment initially (without a manager's comment) that comment cannot be edited. The manager can always edit their comments. Only after the manager's comments were added did the Edit Last Comment button show, although was still not working for the employee.
**Solution**
- Correct check to show Edit Last Comment relative to whether the user or manager is viewing and has added comments previously. Correct call that updates column to correctly set state after save.
#### Clicking on the Evaluate button gives an error (#120422)
**Problem**
- When clicking on an evaluation, it does not open
**Solution**
- Do not return excluded rating items for evaluations
---
### Identity and Authorisation
#### When using the welcome email to set your password and selecting the "Back to login" button a white screen is displayed after login (#120252)
**Problem**
- The back to Login button shows a white screen

---
### Master Data
#### Race field did not update via employee import (#120325)
**Problem**
- Race was not implemented to add Master Data when importing users
**Solution**
- Allow Race to be created as Master Data when importing
---
### Job Profiler
#### Occupational Level Field gets erased after approx 12 hours (#120301)
**Problem**
- The problem is that the occupational level is not currently retrieved from V9 with the V9 user import request.
- This resulted in setting the occupation level to 0 (nothing) when the import runs.
**Solution**
- The syncing of employees to V9 where the employee's occupational level has also been set on V9 Job Profile, should pull through to V8.
# Version 9.1.115 (10 September 2024)
### People Management
#### People Management Service Unavailable (#120109)
The issue is that the system tries to determine the Next Anniversary Date if the user's anniversary has already passed by looking at exactly 1 year from the current year as the next anniversary.
In the case of the user's appointment starting on a Leap Day Eg. 29 Feb 2024, the next anniversary date is calculated as 29 Feb 2025 which does not exist and causes the people page to stop working.
---
### Imports
#### The user is not being placed into the correct Org when importing from V9 into Version 8 (#120118)
**Problem**
- People are appointed in the first org level 1
**Solution**
- Corrected the import to select the correct org level
---
### Performance Management
#### An Error occurred on Uploading Documents (#120261)
**Problem**
- The page breaks when trying to view uploaded content for performance management items. The issue is the incorrect IIF check that somehow snuck through with the PM evaluations merge.
**Solution**
- Corrected the IIF check to be correct, and added a semicolon to the start of the CTE with a statement for sanity.
#### Print/View report shows duplicate records (#119949)
**Problem**
- The join to the Contract Period Phase Dates on the ContractPreview query to determine whether the check-ins phase is active and the check-in comments should be displayed was incorrectly not also filtering on the relevant review year setup.
- This caused duplicate records to be returned.
**Solution**
- Also added the ReviewYearSetupId to the join that checks whether the check-ins phase is active.
# Version 9.1.114 (9 September 2024)
### People Management
#### Various fixes (#119885)
- Hide the username from the Summary on the card view
- The person and Line Manager
[](https://signature.signifyhr.co.za/uploads/images/gallery/2024-09/9BoGKD0famxvW2uR-image.png)
- The Grid View is ONLY available on the Manage People section
**Manage People**

**My Team, My Department and My Company**
[](https://signature.signifyhr.co.za/uploads/images/gallery/2024-09/In9nPk8hzWTYDfuk-image.png)
- Change the wording under the User Permissions
- Change “System Modules Admin” to “*System Module Roles*”
- Change “Additional Roles” to “*Additional System Module Roles*”
[](https://signature.signifyhr.co.za/uploads/images/gallery/2024-09/0EXDkWMK2DmXuKcD-image.png)
#### System errors (#120034)
- A change has been made to how the Ruleset ID is handled when a user's session expires.
- Suppose the user becomes unauthenticated at any point due to session expiry.
- In that case, an unauthorised error will occur but when the Ruleset ID is not found then the standard Ruleset ID is null error will occur.
- In this process, authorisation was also added to the People Group services, which caused the error to be unhandled.
#### Correct appointment creation when adding a new user on the front end (#118751)
**Problem**
- When appointing a user with RabbitMQ slightly lagging the appointment creation collides with the user materialisation trying to create an existing user.
- When creating a new tenant with a code that belongs to a deleted tenant the page breaks
**Solution**
- Only materialise a user when it does not exist and do not throw the exception
- Change the existence check and unique constraint on code to only check for tenants that have not been deleted.
---
### Performance Management
#### Incorrect display in the header of contract (#119961)
**Problem**
- The slash ('/') in the Review Setup name and the display of that translation being HTML-safe encoded resulted in the text to not displaying correctly
**Solution**
- Ensure that the slash ('/') is displayed without strange characters
#### Search doesn't work on the "Move agreements screen" (#119960)
**Problem**
- The global search's default functionality was triggering a form submission and reloading the bulk actions page which resets all the filters and defaults to the logs page.
**Solution**
- Detach and override the global search submit button on Bulk Actions. This allows the standard data table functionality to work and filter.
#### Evaluations - Headings should not be caps (#119892)
Change the first rating item's heading to:
- WHAT IS YOUR OVERALL EXPERIENCE OF THIS PERSON? (OPTIONAL)
- Caps
- Bold
The rest of the items in grey should NOT be bold - keep sentence case as is
#### Evaluations - The icon does not indicate whether an evaluation has been added (#119871)
- Added icon to indicate the number of evaluations

#### When evaluations are not enabled, the summary button should not be visible on the Rate modal (#120072)
- Hide the summary button on the rate model when the settings for evaluations are not enabled
#### Evaluation Summary - Evaluation Comment should have a max display (#119945)
- Added the standard rules for text-areas
- Text-area display max: 200 characters
- On hover: 350 characters
# Version 9.1.113 (9 September 2024)
### Import - People Management
#### Add validation in user import to prevent an org node from having multiple parents in the same sheet (#119247)
**Problem**
- Importing org units with multiple parent nodes breaks the import
**Solution**
- Improve the error logging
- Add pre-import validation to prevent data where a node has multiple parents from being staged
- The following error will be logged in this case:
- Org node with code: \[Org Unit Code\] has different parent nodes
#### Allow multiple level 1 nodes on organisation structure (#118209)
**Problem**
- Currently, only one level 1 node is possible when creating an org structure
**Solution**
- The import will now import all data added to org level 1 as the level 1 node on the ruleset
- When org level 1 is left empty in the sheet then it will use the IN01 node as the default for this node
#### Use external user ID for employee number changes (#115559)
**Problem**
- When importing data from V9 into V8 the employee number is used as the unique identifier and relies on the ID number for employee number changes.
- Because the ID number is not a required field in V9 and is also not unique it causes inconsistent updates of data.
- Incorrect movement of information between employees also occurs when more than one user has the same ID number on V8.
**Solution**
- Add a unique per schema identifier to prsEmployees to store the external user ID of users imported as employees from V9.
---
### Performance Management
#### Copy of PM templates not working (#119586)
**Problem**
- When paging PM Templates the copy onclick event is not attached to the subsequent pages.
**Solution**
- Re-attach the on click event to the data table rows' eye icons when the user pages.
#### Overall Final Score not recalculated to include Value Survey Score (#119575)
**Problem**
- The calculation of the Overall Final Score was not correctly taking the calibrated score into account and using the original score
**Solution**
- Fix the overall score dial calculation to use the calibrated score from the value survey if available.
#### Value Survey calibrated score "lost" when you exclude/include score (#119577)
**Problem**
- When excluding a Survey the calibration score is not reapplied on React, only when the page is reloaded does it show again.
**Solution**
- On Survey include/exclude re-apply the calibration score so it reflects the calibration correctly.
#### Exponentially more templates are created each time you copy a template (#119700)
**Problem**
- When copying PM Templates the copy event is attached in duplicate on each reload of the table causing templates to create in duplicate.
**Solution**
- Detach before re-attaching the onclick event on the PM template copy event.
#### Check-Ins - The manager wants to review (#119502)
**Problem**
- Contract preview broke if a check-in comment contained a colon (":") or semicolon (";").
**Solution**
- Ensure that comments can contain those characters without breaking functionality.
#### Unable to include the Value Survey score (#119745)
**Problem**
- Saving a contract survey gave SQL Dapper error because of one of the objects having changed with the new phase EvaluationEndDate but the query was not updated to select the value.
**Solution**
- Modified query to also select EvaluationEndDate.
#### Clicking on the gauge in the overall section opens the wrong screen (#119957)
**Problem**
- Clicking on any gauge in the Overall Summary Section is always directed to the contract's rating phase regardless of state.
**Solution**
- Change the gauge click to relevant to either Ratings or OS screens depending on whether the user has submitted objectives.
#### Bulk Performance Contract Linking (#119916)
**Problem**
- When you open the page to bulk link users for contract creation for a review setup that does not have a defined TA then the page will time out.
**Solution**
- Ensure the page does not time out
---
### New Development
#### Performance Management - Evaluations on Level 3 items
New functionality has been added to allow a user to select other people to evaluate them on the level 3 item (KPI, Values, Leadership Behaviours, Competencies).
When the Objective Setting is approved by both the Employee and Manager, the evaluator will receive a link to enable them to evaluate the people. Comments and ratings are saved in the Evaluation Summary.
Settings are available to enable this functionality. A setting is also available for Anonymous evaluations. The results are shown, but not who submitted the evaluations.

# Version 9.1.112 (26 August 2024)
### Report Builder
#### Report not exporting (#119368)
**Problem**
- When invalid XML characters within the data need to be exported, the export to Excel fails.
**Solution**
- A method to sanitize the data was added, removing any invalid XML characters before exporting.
---
# Version 9.1.111 (26 August 2024)
### Performance Management
#### Include both Manager and Employee Check-in Comments (#118556)
**Problem**
- Only the person viewing the ratings can see their comments and not the other person's comments as well
**Solution**
- Include both manager and employee check-in comments
#### Include the Review Survey import when calibrating (#118980)
**Problem**
- The Review Survey score cannot be imported when using the Calibration Import
**Solution**
- Allow functionality also to import the Review Survey Score
---
# Version 9.1.110 (16 August 2024)
### Performance Management
#### Changes Done By Individual is Reflected For All Team (#119278)
**Problem**
- On Goals import, when the custom KPI or KPA items are added that have the same name to different users it creates only 1 section item and links that to both contracts.
**Solution**
- Always create custom section items, then iterate through the import records, assign the created items as required and remove them from the list if used.
- This ensures that if the same KPI name exists on more than 1 contract, each will have their own section item created.
- Also added steps to return the current existing contract KPI / KPA ids and then assign the Ids for that to the import items.
- Last step added to delete the 'new' master data section items that were not allocated to prevent orphaned section items being created.
---
### People Management
#### Users not imported to V8 (#112848)
**Problem**
When forcing a bulk import of users, the newly created users (created today) are not imported.
**Solution**
- A SQL job executing the following must be setup to run on the V8 DB to actually import the data, otherwise clicking the bulk import of users will only stage the data in V8
---
# Version 9.1.109 (16 August 2024)
### Ruleset Management | Payroll Connectors
#### PaySpace: Add job to process daily (#116644)
**Problem**
- The front end of the payroll connectors offers a feature to pull or push data on a schedule daily but no such job exists.
**Solution**
- Add a quartz job in the import services to run all the active payroll connectors regardless of type daily.
- The job should fire the global command handler that serves as the controller to call and process the payroll connectors according to their configuration.
- Currently, only PaySpace connectors will be processed.
- Add the daily schedule to appsettings and the Helmcharts of the import service.
---
# Version 9.1.108 (16 August 2024)
### Performance Management
#### Text not changed to "Calibrated" (#119122)
**Problem**
- When the contract has not yet been approved, the precalibrated score is *null.* When importing calibration it only sets the final score and because of the null does not validate against the pre-calibrated score.
**Solution**
- It was changed to always read the final score and pre-calibrated scores as 0.00 (instead of null) and changed the comparison accordingly.
#### Improve error message when importing to a period that has not been started (#119120)
**Problem**
- The error message is not clear when a period has not been started
**Solution**
- Update the message:
- - The user "\[Username\]" does not have an active agreement for the review year "\[Review Year\]" with review setup "\[Review Setup\]" for period item "\[Review Period\]"
---
### People Management - Import
#### User Import: Add additional fields to user imports (#115463)
**Problem**
- Not all fields that are required are available on the User Import
**Solution**
- Refactor user import and extend with additional fields
#### Improve the error when importing an overlapping position (#119083)
**Problem**
- The error message for an overlapping position needs to be improved
**Solution**
- Changed the message:
- "User (Username of person imported), Another appointment exists for the position between \[StartDate\] and \[EndDate\] for \[Username of person in position\]"
---
### Master Data
#### Master Data "in Use" data (#114637)
**Problem**
- The generic error message displays when deleting master data that is already "linked" to other data
**Solution**
- Implement a modal to inform the user why he cannot delete the master data item

**Problem**
- Missing translations
**Solution**
- Add missing translation sections
---
### Ruleset Setup
#### System help Page not responding (#119246)
**Problem**
- User guides will show an infinite loading screen when there are multiple rulesets with overridden settings (UserGuideConfigurations)
**Solution**
- Ensure that UserGuideConfigurations are retrieved for the current ruleset only, which will prevent the infinite loading screen.
---
### Notifications (Inbox)
#### Order items by date (#118522)
**Problem**
- Please order the items so that the latest imports are shown first and ensure that it is correctly ordered as dates and not as text.
**Solution**
- Change the default sort column, and refresh the export table after successfully exporting a report
---
# Version 9.1.107 (12 August 2024)
### System Access
#### System slow/unresponsive (#118937)
**Problem**

- Remove busting of the ruleset menu cache slowing the whole V9 system
---
# Version 9.1.106 (12 August 2024)
### People Management
#### Inconstant background shape size on different Tabs (#118608)
**Problem**
- The system displays inconsistent background shape sizes on different Tabs.
**Solution**
- Set a fixed size for the labels
---
### Performance Management
#### Increase padding below rating scale blocks (#118726)
**Problem**
- The heading for "Rating Comments is very close to them especially if you translate it to something that is longer
**Solution**
- Apply size changes and add comments to Check-ins as well
#### Keep "new line" characters (#118721)
**Problem**
- The newline characters as it was entered in the text boxes are not the same as what the user entered
**Solution**
- Keep "new line" characters on activities, measures and Ratings and KPI
#### People can rate but the rating phase is not open (#118984)
**Problem**
- On the contract screen the phase start date was not correctly being validated, only the end date.
**Solution**
- Correct phase active check to correctly take the start date into account
- Show the correct tooltip when the phase is not yet active and the correct start date check to include today
#### Final scores not calculated correctly (#118623)
**Problem**
- Final scores not calculated correctly
**Solution**
- On the weighted overall section, always recalculate all item L3 weights regardless of the rated state. Fix the Excluded rating showing rate button.
---
### Employee Evaluations
#### The report and export do not return all the roles (#118617)
**Problem**
- When people group users are bulk imported from V9 to V8, it sends a list of people groups to V9 and retrieves the users for that list of people groups. The problem is, before returning the people group users, we distinct the list on user id. This is a problem when importing to V8, because V8 expects the users who belong to a people group to be present, even if the user exists over multiple people groups. But currently that will not happen, a user will be returned only once, even if the user exists over multiple people groups.
**Solution**
- Added an option isTargetAudience, which is optional and true by default. When target audience is true, users will not be duplicated over people groups. When isTargetAudience is false, users can be duplicated over people groups and all users for the given people groups will be returned. This option will be false, when the request is made from V8.
---
### New Development
#### PM Final Score Calibration (#112619)
**As a Performance Management Administrator viewing the Review Setups on a year, I want to export and import the template to add the calibrated values**
*Business Rules*
- Create a template to import the calibrated values
- Calibration of Final Scores
- When downloading the Template, everyone linked to the Review Setups should be populated on the export file
- The settings should be taken into account when populating this file
- The new scores can be populated and imported
- Exception:
- A record cannot be imported without a Reason for revision
**As a Performance User, I want to see my calibrated score**
*Business Rules*
- On the Performance Management dashboard, show the calibrated final score

**Solution**
- Make sure the export snack message is correct.
---
### Performance Management
#### As a Performance User, I want to see all the comments for Employees and Managers (#118556)
- Add Headings for the following sections for the ratings
- Ratings
- Rating Comments
- Person
- Manager
- Private Comment
- Historical Check-ins
- Add Historical comments for both the person and manager
- Objective Setting Comments
- Person
- Manager
#### As a Performance User, I want the on-hover pop-up to be removed and the info shown on the screen when rating (#118428)
- When the rating or check-in modal is open, show the KPI description
- Have an arrow icon with a tooltip
- When clicking on the arrow, expand the grey area and show
- Activities
- Measures
- Ratings
- When clicking the arrow again, collapse the grey area to show the KPI description
#### Bulk Create Contract Periods using review setup settings (#116832)
**Problem**
- The bulk creation of contract periods does not take into account the rules of the review setup. Currently, it only allows the creation of the next contract period if all the periods that has a start date before the one you want to create on the review setup have been final approved. This does not adhere to settings like AllowExcludingReviewItems, and RequirePreviousPeriodCompletion.
**Solution**
- Implement all the settings currently applied when allowing the creation of a contract period as implemented on the dashboard on the bulk creation.
#### Export scorecard in Excel (#108772)
**Problem**
- The agreements can only be exported in PDF
**Solution**
- New method on WebMVC.Areas.PerformanceManagement.Controllers.DashboardController to compile contract information into specific format for excel
- Extend OpenXMLService to handle specific generation of export. See ExportDataSet but possibly alter to not show search criteria etc.
- Integrate with notification service to make downloadable when ready.
---
### Master Data
#### Save & Add New Function, inherited Competency from Previous record needs to be Manually re-selected before save is successful. (#118076)
**Problem**
- When you select 'Save and Add new', when adding new master data, the select2 selects are not cleared properly. The value(s) are cleared, but it still displays the previously selected value(s). Saving after this, does nothing, as the select does technically not have a value, although it displays a value.
**Solution**
- Reset select2's by selecting the first value from the select, which is always "Select an option".
---
### My Account
#### No default Language (#118112)
**Problem**
- On a newly created ruleset, when a user goes to the "My preferences" page, no languages are displayed. This happened because none of the languages were published.
**Solution**
- Ensured that the default language is published, or at least a single language when creating/copying a ruleset.
Also, to make sure that this works for existing rulesets with no published languages. On WebMVC, if the ruleset has no active and published languages, it at least adds the current culture of the user to the list, so that something displays on the page.
---
### Competency Analysis
#### Load More appears when there is no more record to Load on the page (#118145)
**Problem**
- The Load More option displays when there is less than 10 records
**Solution**
- Make sure the option is displayed only if there are more than 10 records
#### Incorrect tooltip when rating as Manager (#112812)
**Problem**
- Incorrect tooltip is shown for Manager (Do self-assessment)
**Solution**
- Make sure that when the person is viewing as the manager, the tooltip changes to Assess Person

- Order the table by latest import first
---
### Integrations | PaySpace
#### PaySpace: Implement performance improvements (#116645)
**Problem**
- Currently, payroll connectors are processed serially meaning that each ruleset will wait for the next to complete.
- All data is always processed when pushing data to Payspace
**Solution**
- Implement threading batching no more than 10 ruleset connectors together.
- When retrieving the data that has changed only retrieve data that has changed on the last day unless the specific connector has never run then include data over all time. A functional data filter should be added to the export to select changes from any date.
---
### Notifications | Email Setup

**Problem**
- The profile images of users are not imported from V9 to V8 and this caused the V8 list pages to not display images for the employees.
**Solution**
- Extend the user details export to include the profile URL from V9, in the Menu and Bulk imports add a step to import the user profile URL as the picture URL in V8
---

### General
#### Implement V9 secure redirects as share links in V8 (#116964)
**Problem**
- Creating short URLs or sharing links in V8 does not create a ruleset-based session for users using V10 and the user is required to login in V8 with credentials that do not exist.
**Solution**
- Implement the secure redirect mechanism developed on V9
---
# Version 9.1.104 (29 July 2024)
### Performance Management
#### Manager Dashboard Change (#118473)
**Problem**
- The wording in the rating phase refers to ratings and check-ins, but the check-ins are done first, followed by the ratings.
**Solution**
- Swap the words around and display: "Check-Ins and Ratings"
#### Managers can update the review survey score when the setting is disabled (#118349)
**Problem**
- The allow edit setting was no longer taken into account since the click was moved to the gauge
**Solution**
- Implement the setting so that the score input will be disabled when the setting is off. The manager will still be able to include/exclude the survey score.
#### KPI weight % submission issue (#118340)
**Problem**
- Similar to the previous situation with L2 weights. The items weighted over section setting on the L1 weights are supposed to be calculated automatically but end up being incorrect and not totaling up to 100%.
**Solution**
- Again could not replicate the issue to solve, but removed the front-end L1 validation when the weighted over section setting was on. Weights are still redistributed and validated on the backend.
---
### Ruleset Management
#### Tenant users cannot update their ID Numbers (#112761)

#### Image Resources: increase the Maximum allowed size to 2mb for Avatar (#118287)
**Problem**
- The avatar image size was 500 KB which is very small for a high-quality image
**Solution**
- Increase the size to 2 MB
#### Image Resources: Duplicate first banner image appears when marked default (#118215)
**Problem**
- The system creates a duplicate of the uploaded banner
**Solution**
- Ensure that there are only 1 image
#### The default Banner does not display on the People Management User preview (#118286)
**Problem**
- The system does not display the default Banner when viewing Employee Details/Card
**Solution**

# Version 9.1.103 (19 July 2024)
### Performance Management
#### Blank screen after opening an agreement (TP#118171)
**Problem**
- The user contract does not load due to a JavaScript error if one section has no name.
**Solution**
- Ensure that a section item always has a name, by returning "unknown" if it is null or empty.
#### Index panel problem (TP#118173)
**Problem**
- "Natural" sorting of items was not implemented when perspectives were enabled.
**Solution**

**Solution**
- Disable the wrapping of the delete icon in the overall summary section
---
### People Management
#### Duplicate employees saved (TP#118162)
**Problem**
- Duplicate users were displayed due to a bug in the back-end logic.
**Solution**
- Ensure duplicate users are not returned when people group users are returned.
#### Roles are not applying to V8 pages (TP#112977)
**Problem**
- Ruleset admin and Schema admin in V9 and V8 respectively are handled differently.
- In V8, schema admin always has edit/view rights.
- In V9 a Ruleset admin needs the appropriate right to view/edit.
**Solution**
- Added a check, when coming from V9 it will only check the view/edit permissions and not if the user is an admin.
---
### Ruleset Management
#### 'User not active' message when attempting to log into the newly created ruleset (TP#116988)
**Problem**
- When a new ruleset is created, when trying to log into that ruleset with the user that created it a user not active message is displayed.
- The problem is that the user has no appointment and does not exist on JobProfiler.MaterializedUsers because of an error when trying to materialize the user.
- This error is because the user has tried to be added before the ruleset has been created on JP which causes the context to go invalid and the user never gets created.
**Solution**
- Changed the order of execution to first send the ruleset created event, and then send the copy identity user (which calls user created event) to reduce the chance of a race condition occurring and the user being created before the ruleset exists on JP.
- Add a check to delay user creation until the ruleset is created
#### Translation Resource names displayed (TP#118163)
**Problem**
- The functionality from the initial development was not working 100% and it saved the actual translated value not the key, also where it did have the key saved it displayed that instead of the value.
**Solution**
- Made it so that when editing/adding a theme it always saves the translation key. When viewing the viewed value is the translation value.
Also made it auto-scroll and focus on the relevant key when clicking on the Hand icon next to the inputs
---
### SigniChat
#### Read Receipt for Messages does not display accurate time (TP#116198)
**Problem**
- Newly Sent Message displays a Read Receipt Time that is not accurate as the user the message was sent to has not yet viewed the message
**Solution**
- Read Receipt time is only logged when the New Message is read by the user it was sent to.
---
### Support User
#### Error deleting a second support user (TP#118186)
**Problem**
- Please note that an error is displayed after you try to delete the second line on the support users list.
**Solution**

#### Close the "Allow Support" modal on Save (TP#116820)
**Problem**
- The Allow Support modal did not close after saving
**Solution**
- Added the close trigger after saving
#### Close the tooltip after clicking the add button (TP#118189)
**Problem**
- When you hover over the "Add" button on the Support Users modal, a tooltip is displayed.
- After clicking on the button, the tooltip is still displaying
**Solution**
- Add a trigger to hide the tooltip after the button has been clicked
#### Typo on modal heading (TP#116819)
**Problem**
- Typo error on the Manage Support Users modal
**Solution**
- Correct the typo
---
### Translation for the Login Page

---
# Version 9.1.102 (15 July 2024)
### Performance Management
#### The employee cannot submit objectives (TP#118111)
**Problem**
- A user could not submit objectives if perspectives were enabled and an Action Plan section was active on the contract.
**Solution**
- Ensure that contract objectives can be submitted when perspectives are enabled and an action plan section is present.
#### Prevent the delete icon from wrapping to a new line (TP#117026)
**Problem**
- When an employee views his agreement when there is one period in the rating phase and another is still in the objective phase, then the delete icon on the objective phase is moved to the next line to the left of the table
**Solution**
- Fix delete icon wrapping to next line on Employee Dashboard
---
### Ruleset Management
#### Translation Resources displayed in tooltip (TP#116882)
**Problem**
- Tooltip items are not being translated.
**Solution**
- Run translation functions when getting the list of menu items.
#### Content Server Password is in clear text by default (TP#116341)
**Problem**
- Content server client secret visible by default
**Solution**
- Changes content server client secret to have password type by default
#### Menus displayed incorrectly (TP#116853)
**Problem**
- The learning portal and HR help desk translations had typos in them, which caused the translation to not work.
**Solution**
- Fix the typos for those two translations.
#### 'User not active' message when attempting to log into newly created ruleset (TP#116988)
**Problem**
- When a new ruleset is created, when trying to log into that ruleset with the user that created it a user not active message is displayed. The problem is that the user has no appointment and does not exist on JobProfiler.MaterializedUsers because of an error when trying to materialize the user.
- This error is because the user has tried to be added before the ruleset has been created on JP which causes the context to go invalid and the user never gets created.
**Solution**
Changed the order of execution to first send the ruleset created event, and then send the copy identity user (which calls user created event) to reduce the chance of a race condition occurring and the user being created before the ruleset exists on JP.
---
### People Management
#### Not Authorised screen displayed when terminating an employee (TP#116658)
**Problem**
- When terminating an employee an unauthorized screen is shown and the user can not be found within the people management dashboard. The terminated users are thus not cached and therefore the unauthorized error.
**Solution**
- Made changes to the user's query to include all users to add in the cache as well.
- This fixed both issues, on people management dashboard and with the unauthorized page.
#### Welcome message image on screen display (TP#118074)
**Problem**
- Images overlap the modal

### Login page
#### Items cannot be seen, the drop-down items are in white and the background is white (TP#116763)
**Problem**
- Transparency does not work on drop-down items
- The drop-down is still visible when there is only one language to select
**Solution**
- Let the drop-down color be set to the same as the parent element. Otherwise, the text won't be seen
- Hide the language drop-down if there is only 1 active language on the current ruleset

### Ruleset Management
#### Tenant users cannot update their ID Numbers (TP#112761)
**Problem**
- Emails were not generated when creating a new Ruleset
**Solution**
- Ensure ruleset admins receive an email when the ruleset is created or copied
#### Random text on the integrations page (TP#116598)
**Problem**
- Random text that is now visible on the Integrations page
**Solution**
- Changed translation symbol to ensure the HTML is treated as a string
#### Ruleset Admin Single can see the Product setup option for some modules (TP#108347)
**Problem**
- The permissions state that this role excludes the actual setup of modules but when this user logs in and views the product setup page, some modules do have the Setup option available
**Solution**
- Only a ruleset admin (single or global) can activate/de-activate a Product (If they have the correct permission too - "Do actions on Product tab, excluding setup")
- Then ONLY an admin of a certain product can access the Product setup of that product - they do not need to be a ruleset admin.
- Also, the same rules that apply to Activating/Deactivating a product, apply to activating/de-activating SigniChat.

### Performance Management
#### System not allowing the manager to copy scorecard on an employee (TP#116196)
**Problem**
- When performing DB-only actions like importing data from V8 to V9 the cached entries in the system for new data is not busted automatically.
**Solution**
- Add an API endpoint in the import service to allow the cache to be busted using an API endpoint.
- This can be triggered from SQL as needed to solve the issue.
#### Percentage errors when submitting contracts (TP#116517)
**Problem**
- Some scenarios occur when the items weighted over section setting are on where the L2 weights are supposed to be calculated automatically but end up being incorrect and not totaling up to 100%.
**Solution**
- Could not replicate issue to solve, but removed the front end L2 validation when the weighted over section setting is on.
- Weights are still redistributed and validated on the backend.
#### Error when opening PM Section Items (TP#116816)
**Problem**
- Could not access Section Item master data.
- This was due to the custom handling of the Section Item enum type that was added initially.
**Solution**
- Removed the custom handling and relied on the existing functionality since the SectionItem enum works generically now and no custom implementation is needed.

- In V9 a Ruleset admin needs the appropriate right to view/edit.
**Solution**
- Added a check, when coming from V9 it will only check the view/edit permissions and not if the user is an admin.
---
### Imports
#### Employee data import not working (TP#116883)
**Problem**
- User import fails without reason when importing bulk users where the dataset is made of existing and new users
**Solution**
- Correct the filter that excludes the current users from the list of new users to create.
- Ensure external ID is only used when it is not null when doing this comparison.
#### Competencies not copied to positions created by the import (TP#113352)
**Problem**
- When importing individuals for a job position, the job position does not inherit the competencies from the job profile.
**Solution**

### People Management
#### Technical: The index page makes excessive calls (TP#116776)
**Problem**

**Solution**
- Ensure that when people are added, no errors are returned, by fixing the script.
#### Country selector default to SA (TP#116648)
**Problem**
- Country selector defaults to SA
**Solution**
- The company codes will now use geolocation to determine the correct company code to select initially depending on your IP address.
- If the location cannot be determined it will currently default to US. This applies to contact details and the next of kin number fields.
#### Able to click the Delete button for an active appointment (TP#116652)
**Problem**
- You can click the delete button next to a person's active appointment and the confirmation modal is displayed.

**Solution**
- Disable the delete button
#### Surname Filter - UI Improvements (TP#116242)
**Problem**
- When a letter on the Surname filter bar (the left vertical bar with “abc”,”A”, etc) is clicked, then the page filters the People with surnames that start with that letter.
- But, it is not clear enough which letter is clicked
**Solution**
- Highlight the letter more (currently it is only bolded).
- Add a round coloured circle around the letter/ highlighted background
- Show above the People cards (or list):
- Showing People with surnames starting with “G”. Click “abc” to clear.
#### UTC date is displayed for Last Login (TP#116745)
**Problem**
- When using the card view on People Management and clicking on a person's card, a preview displayd of the person's details.
- On this modal the person's last successful login date is displayed.
- Please note that this date is displayed as UTC, meaning it is 2 hours behind SA time.
- Please ensure that the UTC is converted to local time.
**Solution**
- Fix more places where ToUniversalTime() is incorrectly used.
---
### Performance Management
#### Values & Behaviours section weights stay red after entering them manually (TP#113304)
**Problem**
- There was 1 issue on the react state when the sections and items are added causing it to add some sections in duplicate to the state.
- This had the effect of removing incorrect items from the state and section items disappearing from the incorrect sections.
- Also, this leads to the invalid weight calculation to be incorrect.
**Solution**
- Fixed the problem with the duplicate sections being added to the state which also corrected the weight validation.
#### Prevent Rate button text from overflowing (TP#116231)
**Problem**

**Solution**
- Set minimum width and also make it wrap better when text is long

- The popover is displayed for that comment when the comment exceeds the standard textbox display length (80 characters)
- If the comment is shorter no popover displays
- When clicking on the KPI item the relevant comments are displayed (With the exception being Check-Ins see below)
- The Objective Settings comments and the historical check-ins should be displayed for check-ins. The actual comment inputs are empty
- Currently, during Check-Ins the user can only see the opposite person's comments on the contract display (via the PopOver) not on the modal
- The modal only shows the historical comments for that user (Employee or Manager) and the Objective Settings comments (if any)

### Main Dashboard
#### Line Manager not showing on the My Colleagues widget (#115885)
**Problem**
- The widget displays that the user does not have a manager
**Solution**
- When it retrieves the information for the MyColleagues widget it returns:

#### Show more characters on the comments pop-up (#115651)
**Problem**
- Sometimes popovers did not display for comments (manager and user, but specifically manager in this case.).
- This happened because the text shown in the table with ellipses used the textBoxMaxDisplay, which is 80 characters.
- But the popover which was then used, used the textAreaMaxDisplay, which is 200 characters.
- This meant that for any comment between 80 and 200 characters, the popover will not display and the text in the table is capped at 80 characters, so the user cannot see what the full comment is - if between that character range.
**Solution**
- Make sure that the popover also uses the textBoxMaxDisplay, when deciding whether to display.

#### Error when re-importing previously deleted Action Plan Report (#111717)
***Problem***

---
### People Management
#### Delete modal not correctly enabling the Delete button (#113743)
***Problem***
- A recent change had caused that the delete modals on Next of Kin, Assets and Permits not work because of how it handled the deletion reason.
- For the above there is no reason displayed and to bypass the validation that happens for the delete button to enable " " was added to the input.
- Recent changes on the global delete.ts functionality however had a check introduced that no empty reasons are provided, and in doing so it trimms the input removing the " " added and failing the validation.
***Solution***
- Removed the " " from being inserted on the delete modals here, and instead made use of the newly added ShowDeletionReason propery which better handles not showing the input and then does not check for it having a value.
#### New functionality - Address Development (#112076)
***Master Data***
3 new Master Data lists have been added for:
- Countries
- Provinces
- Work Locations
[](https://signature.signifyhr.co.za/uploads/images/gallery/2024-04/xqpWU0zpBbRBsNq5-image-1712246980878.png)

### Tenant Management
#### Display the correct expiry date (#112411)

---
### Performance Management
#### Unable to save the review survey weights (#110981)
**Problem**
- Cannot add a Review Survey, stating that the maximum score cannot be zero. Problem was that the score input was incorrectly hidden if you first open and close an existing review item.
**Solution**
- Ensured that the score input is displayed correctly when adding a new Review Survey. Also added validation to the score input to not allow anything less than 1 to be entered.
#### Value Survey modal open inside overall Summary (#113440)
**Problem**
- With the recent slider control introduced on the PM dashboard the Value Survey score modal was getting cropped into the slider parent container and no longer showing centered and on top of the overlay.
**Solution**
- Moved the Modal out of the Slider (similar to where the delete modals are located).
- It then generates a Review survey modal for each of the review survey items.
- Moved all the relevant state and actions out of the ReviewSurveyScoreModal component to the ManagerAccordion component where appropriate.
- Also fixed an issue where after the update the order of users changed on the Overall Summary, by first sorting the userContract array before mapping to the components.
---
### System Access
#### Changed handling of unauthenticated when the refresh token for the session is no longer valid (#112810)
**Problem**
- When the refresh token period has expired for a user access token the user receives an unauthenticated error throughout the system that is not handled.
**Solution**
- Changed hardcoding in identity to enable the expiry period to change in the app settings
- Add redirect in the error controller to the error controller to the login page
- Add redirect in the SPA controller when the session does not exist or the user is not authenticated
- When possible the user will be redirected back to the page where they left off.
- Add login/logout to WebMVC config to go to the logout method to redirect the application to the correct login screen.
- The defaults for the tokens now are:
- Access Token 1 hour, the access token ends and must be renewed
- Refresh Token 5 hours, meaning the access token can be renewed up to 5 times if the user still has a valid login and is allowed to log in
- Once the refresh token period has passed the user will be redirected to the login page to log in again.

# Version 9.1.75 (25 March 2024)
### Tenant Management
#### Order Tenants properly on the index page (#113436)
**Problem:**
- Could not order on date on the tenant index page, because it tried to order on an already formatted date
**Solution:**
- Made the order field to be a universal sortable date format. Also removed the order on the name of tenant. Used the SignifyDateHelper.
---
### System Access
#### Tenant Expired message has been improved (#113535)

---
### People Management
#### Added correction to the People Management items when a user has no roles but all the needed people group permissions for the sections (#113486)
**Problem:**
- A user with no roles but all the people group permissions to edit the sections was not able to do the following without the people administrator role:
- Terminate User
- Transfer User
- Reappoint User
- Change the reporting lines
- A user without the job profiler administrator role is not able to add an appointment for a terminated user.
- A user without the job profiler administrator role can try and create a position on the appointment screen.
- An unauthorised is received after terminating a user today and trying to edit the user
- A user with only a People administrator role was able to manage role assignments under User Access
**Solution:**
- Remove the role check on the people administrator and replace it with a check on people group permissions
- Remove the check on the appointment screen that requires a user to be a job profiler administrator to appoint users
- Hide the button to create positions from the appointment screen when a user is not a job profiler administrator
- Change the date filter to include the current date when retrieving the active appointment of a user
- Change the People Administrator role to check the manage own access and logged-in user along with the role in the user access section.
---
### Peformance Management
#### Fix not being able to submit final ratings when hide scores enable and perspectives are on (#113057)
**Problem**
- Cannot submit Final Ratings when Hide Scores setting is enabled
**Solution**
- Added logic on the final ratings submission to not calculate the perspective / KPA scores if hide scores is enabled, this was breaking because the weight is saved as 0% which caused divide by zero errors.
####
#### Added more detail to the import validation message (#112703)
**Problem**
- The validations message is not descriptive enough to a user when a Template Import fails where the KPA and KPI weights don't equal 100
**Solution**
- Improve the message
- Template section weights should sum to 100%
# Version 9.1.74 (25 March 2024)

Created a new SSIS package called **CreateTables** that will add all the required tables as this did not exists within the current repo.
#### Remove records marked as deleted from V9\_Data Warehouse during daily sync (#108782)
**Problem:**
During the sync from V9 databases to V9_Datawarehouse, records marked as Deleted still remains in V9_Datawarehouse.
**Solution:**
Change dtsx packages to remove records marked as Deleted from V9_Datawarehouse.
Example: Performance Management Contracts/Periods
---
### Performance Management
#### All agreement weights must be validated to be more than 0 (#113018)
**Problem:** Currently you can add perspectives and KPAs while leaving their weights 0. If you try to submit objectives, an error will be displayed. Only KPI weights are validated.
**Solution:** Added validation to Perspective and KPA weights to only allow you to add if the weight is more than 0 (if not itemsWeightedOverSection AND not hideScores). A snack message is displayed.
#### User can add duplicate review setups (#113022)
**Problem:**
User was able to add duplicate review setups.
**Solution:**
Disable Save button when creating and updating review setups.
---
### Ruleset Management
#### Addition of Catalogue menu in V9 for the learning product (#112786)
**Problem:**

**Solution:**
Make it so that the General tab displays by default.
---
### People Management
#### Styling of pages with large gaps (#112994)
**Problem:**
People Profile pages are not fitting correctly on the screen. There are large grey areas around it.
**Solution:**
Improve some styling on the person profile page, to fit external and normal pages better - filling the entire height of the screen.
#### Translation not applied for Username field (#113007)
**Problem:**
The Username label on the employee profile is now displayed as two words instead of one but the translation shows it as one word.
**Solution:**
Ensure correct translation is used for the Username field.
#### Unable to give data source access to active report categories on a new tenant’s ruleset (#112839)
**Problem:**
Because any new ruleset uses the the datasources/categories from Ruleset/Tenant 1 by default, nothing was returned, because the current Ruleset is not Ruleset 1
**Solution:**
When retrieving data categories, return the categories from Tenant 1 if the ruleset uses the Data Dictionary from Ruleset 1
#### Publish the Job Profile of the first user on a new Ruleset (#112780)
**Problem:**
Default ruleset job was not published.
**Solution:**
Changed it so that the default ruleset is published.
