New user profile parameter for determination debugging
A new user profile parameter, /EBY/PDBO_DEBUG_DET, is now available, which when set to X displays detailed messages about the determination search results and result handling.
Indicator for notes in the overview and SAP GUI
In the SAP GUI document overview list, notes icons indicate that notes have been added to the document. There are different icons for notes added by the current user and notes added by a different user. Users can click in the "Notes" column to view and add notes.
Improved performance for PROCESS DIRECTOR start and document overview
Performance has been improved when starting PROCESS DIRECTOR and when opening the document overview list. (RSPDN2174)

Payment Advice credit lines displayed as negative values
Credit lines of a Payment Advice are now displayed as negative values in the Payment Advice "Open Items" grid and the Electronic Bank Statement "Payment Advice Items" grid.
Improved Payment Advice preset for payment/gross amount
Previously, the preset /EBY/CL_PDPA_PRESET_PAYMNT simply copied the header gross amount to the header payment amount, or vice versa. This preset now also takes the discount into account (Gross amount = Payment amount + Cash discount amount; Payment amount = Gross amount – Cash discount amount).
Partner role description for sales order partners
The description of the partner role is now displayed instead of the key value.
Improved messages for quantity check
The quantity check /EBY/CL_PDOR_EVT_CHK_QTY now returns the standard SAP messages regarding an incorrect material and unit of measurement.
Use SAP copying options for item texts
PROCESS DIRECTOR now uses the standard SAP copying options for item texts (table T165P) when posting a PROCESS DIRECTOR requisition as an SAP requisition or purchase order.
OCI catalog call with HTTP GET
By adding the "HTTP_METHOD=GET" parameter to the OCI catalog customizing, PROCESS DIRECTOR can now call an OCI catalog with HTTP GET. Previously, only a call with HTTP POST was possible.
New cursor positioning behavior
The positioning of the cursor when entering the document detail view, the notes pane or a popup has been improved, in that the cursor is now placed in the appropriate field; for example, in the first mandatory field, or, if there is no mandatory field, in the first empty field.
Document detail view content fully scrollable
The content in the document detail view is now fully scrollable. Previously, it was only possible to scroll in the top or bottom sections.
