    Attachments were displayed in a random order. They are now displayed in descending order by creation date and time, with the latest attachment at the top. (RSPDN1327999)

    User search help returns no results

    If “Pre-assign processors” was set to “Default assigned processors only” in /COCKPIT/WI3 and the user entered an asterisk in the “Name or Email” field when assigning recipients for the next step, the search returned no results. (RSPDN1492402)

    Purchase order items not displayed

    If there was no purchase number in the header and more than one purchase order was entered in the line items, the purchase order data was not displayed.

    Erroneous prompt to save document after changing purchase order item

    When the user changed a purchase order item number, saved the document and then clicked on another document in the list, a prompt to save the changes was displayed.

    General Functionality

    Application fails to start

    The application failed to start on servers with version 750 of the SAP_GWFND component due to an extra space at the end of the PO_ITEM field. (RSPDN1412805)

    Document cannot be processed after entering negative value

    If a negative value was entered in an amount field, the document could no longer be processed and a short dump occurred in Process Director.

    Multiple error messages on approving

    If the user clicked the “Approve” button several times, the same error message was displayed multiple times.

    Error when displaying notes

    An error sometimes occurred when displaying notes.

    No workflow recipients available for assignment

    When users were preassigned to the workflow and the option “All assigned, any other processor” was selected in the workflow step settings, no users were available for assignment on approval of the workflow step. (RSPDN1536206)

    Internal order search help shows statistical orders

    The F4 search help for internal orders also displayed statistical orders. (RSPDN1548770)

    Search helps ignore selection conditions

    F4 search helps with selection conditions in the table view ignored the conditions and returned too many results. (RSPDN1559574)

    Incorrect display in search help

    Data in a search help was sometimes displayed in the wrong column.

    Search help returns no results

    Process Analytics

    Chart of previously selected KPI erroneously displayed

    When the user opened a KPI, then went back and selected a different KPI, the charts of both KPIs were displayed. Now only the chart of the last selected KPI is displayed.

    Line chart with time axis displays incorrect values

    The “Line chart with time axis” representation for Date characteristics displayed incorrect values.

    Purchase Orders

    Save prompt displayed for unchanged documents

    The message “Do you want to save?” was displayed when leaving a document although no changes had been made.
