We're delivering this automatic upgrade to UAT (TRAIN) environments on March 28, 2025 and to production environments on April 11, 2025, with these highlights:

  • Scheduled Jobs: Limit the number of entities the system looks at when generating a report to boost performance.

  • Cost Tracking: Automatically populate Percent Complete in the Pay App when you select the related Purchase Order.

  • Import Members: Set the Lockout Status of users when you import members to prevent members being inadvertently locked out.

  • Improvements and issues fixed

Scheduled Jobs

LUC-14112 LUC-14917

When you add or edit a scheduled job for a report, you can now select the Limit entity in workflow steps option to limit the number of entities the system looks at to just the one related to the workflow steps the report is running from. This helps system performance by only processing the entities necessary to generate the report.

To use this option, you must add the Entity LxID field with search/runtime filter selected for Criteria / Conditions in each report where you want to limit the entity.

Cost Tracking

LUC-14341

If your organization uses Cost Tracking with Auto-populate Purchase Order Lines selected for the layout of your Pay App forms, a vendor can now enter a percentage complete value for each line item they are submitting the Pay App for. This value is then used in calculations for other columns in the custom list that determine the amount that is owed to the vendor. When submitting a new Pay App the percentage complete from the previous Pay App now automatically populates on the Pay App when you select the Related Purchase Order.
