Version 9.1.255 (28 September 2026)

Performance Management

Added bustable methods to queryable cache attributes (#155589, #155592)

Problem

Missing bustable methods; cached values were being returned

Solution

Added bustable methods to clear cached values

Implement event publish after loading the bulk action (#155511)

Problem

When loading a bulk action, the action is never processed.

Solution

This change makes a small but important update to the bulk action event-handling process. After adding and saving the integration event, it now ensures that all pending events are published through the event bus.

Added Kpi Name to evaluations (#155219)

Problem

KPI name was not being rendered on the frontend, as well as a request to change the translation and remove the default KPI translation above each rating scale

Solution

Added kpi name rendering, changed the translation and removed the removal of kpi translation

Fix review document handler logger dependencies (#155503)

Problem

Opening Portfolio of Evidence files from KPA or KPI rows returns "Invalid identifiers" because the review-file handler cannot resolve its logger dependency.

Solution

Use the registered generic logger in the affected review-file handlers and add dependency-injection coverage for all review-file query handlers.

Truncate Check-Ins label with tooltip when translation is long (#155250)

Problem

On the performance dashboards, the "Check-Ins" label (on the check-ins dial, the check-ins count badge, and the "Check-Ins & Ratings" accordion header) was previously changed to wrap onto multiple lines when the translation is long. Wrapping looked untidy inside the small circular dials and badges.

Solution

Instead of wrapping, the label is now shortened with an ellipsis (…) when it does not fit, and hovering it shows the full text in a tooltip. Short labels look exactly as before.

Change Merge and Delete permission translations to title case (#155330)

Problem

Some People management role permissions not in title case

Solution

Change Merge and Delete permission translations to title case.

User Activity Tracker (#152090)

New functionality

This includes activity on V8 pages and V9 pages.

The HR automation pages in the Blazor project is not yet tracked.

In order to make this more useful and assist with testing I have added a user activity under audit information of the user.

Only the latest 200 activity records will be returned on the page.

These are the business rules of the tracker

• It only starts tracking after the user stays on the page for 5 seconds (startDelay).
• Once started, it sends:
• start once,
• heartbeat every 5 minutes by default,
• end when tracking stops.
• It tracks inactivity and will suspend after 20 minutes of no interaction.
• If user activity returns after inactivity suspension, it resumes with the same sessionId and sends a new start.
• It does not end just because the tab becomes hidden:
• on hidden: sends one heartbeat (prefers beacon), stops interval heartbeat;
• on visible: sends heartbeat and restarts heartbeat interval.
• It ends permanently on page lifecycle exits (pagehide, beforeunload) and avoids duplicate permanent end events.
• It listens to activity events: mousemove, mousedown, keydown, click, touchstart, and scroll.
• heartbeat and end payloads are minimal (session + last seen + timestamp); start includes page/user context.
• Requests go to /App/ActivityTracker endpoints by default (StartTracker, Heartbeat, EndTracker), with base URL auto-derived if needed.
• For reliability, it prefers navigator.sendBeacon for exit/background sends, else falls back to fetch with keepalive: true.
• It includes anti-forgery token (__RequestVerificationToken) if present, both in header and payload.
• Tracking errors are swallowed so user experience is not interrupted.

Add Person Profile Image Setting (#153139)

New functionality

Enable or disable the ability for users to upload a profile picture, so that my company can prevent users from displaying a profile image if required

Configure permission settings for updating profile pictures, so that I can decide whether employees or only administrators are allowed to change profile pictures

System Access

Correct external menu routing for additional services general and deep link types (#155499)

Problem

General external pages return an error

Deep link external pages do not correctly authenticate

Solution

It also broadens ruleset menu previews to include all external menu items, not only those missing an external code.

Ruleset Management

Resolve "Default Text" snack when toggling screen capture tool (#155038)

Problem

"Default Text" snack when toggling screen capture tool

Solution

Resolve "Default Text" snack when toggling screen capture tool. response` is the raw JSON body from the server ({ Message, RedirectUrl? }),not a plain string. When a RedirectUrl is present the global ajax handler reloads the page and shows the message afterwards. Passing the object straight to snack() would render the snackbar library's "Default Text" placeholder.

Data Warehouse

Implemented performance improvements within PeopleManagement_ETL (#155300)

Problem

Performance improvements needs to be implemented for PeopleManagement_ETL

Solution

Added hashrows for accUsers to improve performance

Removed Source step for Steps to improve performance/memory usage

Report Builder

Make the download of report in report builder fire and forget, resolve problem with first load that does not download (#146300)

Problem

Some plugins still make use of these and are now outdated, one of them jquery-contextMenu does not have an updated version and is not compatible with jQuery 4

Solution
