New features

Audit trail screen

An audit trail screen has been added to the Limits Inventory Widget, allowing you to see the audit history of the selected limit.

See Viewing the audit history for details.

Improvements

  • New workflow names: The workflows have been renamed.
    - Straight through: no approval needed, created in approved state.
    - Four eyes: previously called single eye. One person creates the workflow, another person approves.
    - Six eyes: previously called 4 eyes. One person creates the workflow, two people approve.

To make sure your limit workflow works as expected, please discard any previous testing data in the datastore and Activiti databases. On top of the workflow name changes, the reference implementation now has the Role_Users by default to be able to create the limit definition instead of Role_Managers.

  • Added property to specify the URL of the Limits Module: Limits now supports being run from any location; previously Limits was assumed to be running at localhost.
  • Added validation to Limit Definition: Limit Definitions are validated when loaded through CSV or File Upload.
  • Limits on Calculated Measures : Limits can now be created on Calculated Measures via File Upload.

Limits cannot be created on calculated measures through the UI. See LIM-320 in the Known Issues

  • UI improvements: Enabled Lazyloading for Limits Inventory Widget, numerous bug fixes, added column sorting to the Limits Inventory Widget, enabled Storytelling, better error handling.
  • Workflow after editing and deleting a limit: After editing or deleting a limit in the Limits Inventory Widget, the workflow is triggered. Editing triggers the Limit Change Workflow, deleting triggers the Straight through workflow and an audit record is created in the audit database.
  • Roles: All the KPIs created by the Limits module now have LIM_ROLE as the owner and viewer.
