  • Beginning with version 10.6: In the past, the localization of labels, error messages, and audit information was handled on the core-service side. Step by step, most of these items have to be configured on the client side. With the next step the basis parameters like title, description, created, modified, creator, modifier, etc. are no longer handled on the core-service side.
    Therefore, basis parameter labels on the client side must be localized within the <language iso code>.json files (e.g. ja.json).

  • CSV Export

    • Beginning with version 10.8: The client requests the search-service for the CSV export with a list of the fields and their labels concerning the language the user has configured.

    • Attention: If a CSV export is requested via search API, keep in mind that the column labels are only in English if the fields are not explicitly listed in the payload. The list of fields controls the column sequence in the CSV file. The value of the fields contains the qualified name of the field (object type property) followed by the label (all characters after the first space). If no label is given, the technical name is used for it.
      Used endpoint of the search API: http://mydomain.de/search/export

  • Custom clients must be upgraded to Angular 17 because the client has been updated to this framework version. See this documentation for building a custom client as well: Getting Started

    • Outlook: Another upgrade step to Angular 18 is planned for version 10.8.

  • The Task list widget has been refactored and face-lifted. The old version saved the list data in the local browser storage, so the data was not available on other workstations.
    The new widget saves the data centrally. However, the old data will get lost.

  • In a client form-script, it is possible to check with row.persisted whether a row existed or not when the onchanged event was fired. But row.persisted gave the wrong false or true value for the current situation. Now this is corrected, so it is necessary to change the affected scripts and negate your logic.

  • The widget configuration has been extended and improved. This may cause that some of the existing configurations from 9.16 are no longer valid, an error is shown and the user should reconfigure the affected widget so that a new configuration is applied.

  • It was necessary to change the table behavior of the object reference aspect from grouped objects to a flat list of objects.

  • Beginning with version 10.6, the core-service no longer offers localisation of the system-specific basis parameters like type, title, description, version etc. Now, these parameters are part of the client localisation files. If additional language files other than the standard en.json and de.json are in use, these files have to be extended with the basis parameters. See the description in the update steps.

  • Beginning with version 10.12, the user experience of searching for ‘Without value’ is changed. Instead of clicking the form field label the new operator is introduced.

Core-service API

  • Introduction of the new feature in process development that allows modeler to exclude certain users, roles, and groups from participation in a workitem has caused the following API changes: 

    • GET  /bpm/process/processId/activity/activityId/performer has new response format that lists exclusions as well.

      • GET /bpm/process/{processId}/activity/{activityId}/inboxitem has been extended to contain excluded members (https://jira.optimal-systems.de/browse/ERA-9010), but there are no breaking changes (users of the endpoint may decide to use this new information).

    • PUT /bpm/process/{processId}/activity/{activityId}/performer has been changed (https://jira.optimal-systems.de/browse/ERA-9796).

      • Its payload structure has been changed to allow adding of both performers and performers.exclusions.

      • It can only add performers and performers.exclusions to the existing list (up to version 9.16 it was possible to replace the whole configuration if parameter "replace" is set to "true").

    • POST /bpm/process/{processId}/activity/{activityId}/performer has been added to replace the complete performer- and performer.exclusions-configuration.

      • It uses the same payload structure as GET and PUT endpoints.

  • GET /bpm/process/<processId>/history has a new optional parameter "includeData" that controls the size of its response.

    • The parameter is "false" by default.

    • If the includeData parameter is not set or set to "false" the data object (containing all variables and its values for every history entry) is not written into response.

    • If the includeData parameter is set to true, the data object containing the variables will also be returned.
