Releases Since Our Last Meeting (8-19-2020)

Hotfix to remove a patch that was no longer needed and causing problems for districts who were imported between 7/1/20 - 8/20/20.

Updated the Online Checkbook extract per the State Treasurer's Office to rename the option to be OhioCheckbook.gov.
Corrected a bug that allowed posting an initial budgeting transaction via the Budget Transactions on the Expenditure account if an initial amount already existed. The process checked the posting period for initial transactions but has been corrected to check for initial transactions for the fiscal year.
Improved the account change process to only allow one account change to be processed at a time. Due to the opening and closing of posting periods as part of the account change process to update all transactions, more than one process running at a time could interfere with each other causing one to fail. If an account change job is "in progress" another one cannot be started until it completes. We also refactored the handling of posting periods to improve the performance of the account change job.
Wrote a discovery patch to determine user preferences related to customizing grids and saved queries. This information will be used as we are rewriting the user interfaces to improve their performance.

Hotfix to recreate the histories previously deleted by the patch that was removed with the 8.1.1 hotfix.

Corrected a bug that prevented districts from printing with customized Requisition documents.
Corrected a bug with the Account Change process to make sure all payables are also updated when an account change process is run. This was an edge case found in house where a PO was posted and invoiced in a prior fiscal year, then an account change was processed. Once that was complete the disbursement was created. The expenditure was posted to the new account but the encumbrances were still tied to the old account.
Corrected various schema and SOAP problems impacting data posted by 3rd party vendor applications.
1. Corrected a problem that allowed 3rd party software to invoice a canceled PO.
2. Corrected a problem when converting a split item po to make sure the quantity is set properly.
3. Corrected a problem with Requisition header and item descriptions as well as the PO deliver to address field limits. These fields were updated to allow larger values.
Corrected a problem with the change void date option that allowed a user to make the disbursement appear as though it was no longer void but the ledger associated with the void remained, causing an error when the user attempted to void the disbursement again.
