Digest 6.12

Inter-Service Communication

Instead of the 'root' user, a new system user is introduced which will be used by all services from now on. After updating the system, some manual configurations have to be done as described in this article Enabling the System User Login for Microservices. Otherwise the root user will be used as before. However, for more security and to avoid conflicts, it is recommended to switch to the new system user.

core-service & client

The server no longer validates whether an ID reference field contains a deleted object. This is done by the client as well. The user can save modified index data although the field is set to read-only. However, the user cannot remove a referenced object from this field.

client & agent

Action 'Send e-mail'

Beginning with this version, the product name is no longer displayed in front of the text in the subject and body of an opened e-mail.

In case users require their own product name to be displayed, it is possible to define a custom action that will append this text. When defining this custom action, you can also define different texts for different object types. 

An example is given in the documentation for custom actions.
