External data viewer improvements
The external data viewer (menu Go to > External data) now displays a message if no external data is available, and also supports EDI data.
Search payment terms by explanation
It is now possible to search for payment terms using the Own explanation field.
Keyboard shortcuts for Worklist node context menu
Unique keyboard shortcuts (Fastpaths) are now available in the Worklist node context menu, enabling users to access the menu entries with the keyboard instead of the mouse.
Performance improvement at logon and start
Measures were taken to improve system performance when PROCESS DIRECTOR is started, and when logging on to the Web Application.
It is now possible to upload files in which header and item data are in the same column, but on different lines. Previously a strict separation of header and line item data in the upload file was necessary. (RSPDN1257)
Performance improvement for document versions
System performance when using the document versions feature was improved by reducing the number of selects made on the Version numbers table (/EBY/PDBO_VEV).
Performance improvement for Worklist generation
Several measures were taken to speed up Worklist generation, for example, by reducing the amount of memory used in the process. (RSPDN0570)
Worklist node counters performance improvement
The performance of the Worklist node counters calculation has been improved. (RSPDN1775)
Improved customer number search help
The search help for payment advices has been improved; it now allows the use of an asterisk (*) to display all payment advices that match the customer number as well as payment advices that contain * in the account number field.
Automatic assignment of line item number for new line items
When a new line item is added to a Customer Order document, the Item field is now automatically populated in accordance with the Item no. increment setting in transaction VOV8.
Performance improvements in document overview
System performance has been improved when working with the document overview list. (RSPDN1636)
BAPI and posting interface simulation checks dependent on posting type configuration
Previously, if both the BAPI simulation check (/EBY/CL_PDFI_EVT_CHK_CREATE) and the posting interface simulation check (/EBY/CL_PDFI_EVT_CHK_POST_IF) were configured, only one check would run, depending on whether the Posting Interface option was activated or not in the posting type configuration. Now both checks run independently of the posting type configuration. If necessary, it is possible suppress these checks for a specific posting type using configuration criteria. (RSPDN0758)
Detection of posted/parked document
The mechanism that checks whether a document has been posted or parked has been enhanced. The same checks are now performed for Post and Perform. Previously the Perform function checked only the message from the posting interface, while Post also checked the BLNTAB table. (RSPDN1169)
Pass OCI catalog ID from Web Application to SAP GUI
When a user adds items to a requisition using an OCI catalog, the catalog ID is now passed to the SAP GUI. (RSPDN0549)
Image icon for line item attachments
If a line item has attachments, an attachment icon is now displayed. The user can click on this icon to open the attachment.
Switching browser to full screen mode
The system behavior has been changed when the user switches the browser window to full screen mode using F11. This precludes potential duplicate entries in the document list if the user performs actions in the Web Application while the updated document list is still being loaded from the server.
Support for Internet Explorer 10
From version 7.2 patch level 5, the PROCESS DIRECTOR Web Application provides full support for Internet Explorer 10. For previous versions, it is necessary to run Internet Explorer 10 in compatibility mode.
New parameters for Web Service
New parameters have been introduced for the RESTful Web Service, which is required for alternative PROCESS DIRECTOR clients such as ReadSoft Mobile. These parameters must be set in order to display images correctly. imageconvertpng and imageconvertjpg convert PDF or TIF documents to a series of PNG/JPG images. pd_ignore_att_url ensures that attachments are read using binary data.
New note not added after sorting notes
Fixed an error whereby when there was already at least one note in the Notes panel and the user sorted the notes by clicking any of the available fields, they were unable to then add a new note. Although a new note row was created, the text area still showed the existing note.
Automatic redirection to specified URL on logging off
A new parameter, logoff_redirect_url, is now available that allows the user to be redirected to a specific URL on logging off from the Web Application.
Extended functionality for SSO ntlmauthenticate parameter
With parameter values -2 and -3, the standard logon page is now displayed if the user credentials are retrieved but incorrect, and the user can log on manually. Previously this situation resulted in an error message.
Display TIFF images in PROCESS DIRECTOR attachment viewer
A new parameter, pd_show_tif_embedded, is available to enable the display of TIFF images in the PROCESS DIRECTOR attachment viewer. A TIF viewer browser plug-in such as AlternaTIFF is required.
SSO authentication with X.509 client certificate
PROCESS DIRECTOR now supports SSO authentication using an X.509 client certificate.
Check for installed languages when saving user profile
When a user changes the language in his profile, the system checks whether the chosen language is available. If it is not installed, an error message is displayed to the user.
If the tooltip for a field contains a lot of text, it is now displayed in a popup area with scrollbars.
Leading and trailing spaces in field values
If the user enters a field value with spaces at the beginning or end, the field value is now trimmed, with all the unnecessary spaces removed.
Improved header data display on low resolution screens
The display of header data on low resolution screens has been improved, eliminating unnecessary empty screen space and scrollbars.
Minimize upper panel in Attachments area
An arrow icon is now available at the top left of the Attachments pane to minimize the upper part of the pane, hiding the list of attachments and leaving more space for viewing the attachment.
Mobile App for workflow processing
A mobile application, ReadSoft Mobile, is now available that allows users to perform workflow activities, such as approving and rejecting PROCESS DIRECTOR documents (of any process type), from their phone. It is available for Apple, Android, Blackberry and Windows phones and can be downloaded from the respective App Store. Fields and layout in the ReadSoft Mobile App can be configured in the PROCESS DIRECTOR view model, using the new environment setting MB Mobile Application. The Worklist for mobile applications is configured in the usual way. A new Worklist node setting Not visible in Mobile Application, which is activated by default, must be deactivated for mobile application Worklist nodes.

In order to improve performance, the method by which the status of documents with queries is calculated was changed. (RSPDN1671)

Default sort order does not work as expected
Fixed an issue whereby by default tables were sorted first by workflow step and then by PROCESS DIRECTOR document number, with the result that documents in workflow were displayed at the bottom of the table, regardless of the document number.
