Data Import | Data import: all permissions | Remove "Settings (Data import): Can view, create, edit, and remove" from roles and users that don't need to change the settings. In Kiwi there was a permission bug: To use data import the settings permission was required. This has been fixed for Lotus, therefore the permission that had been added as a workaround should be removed now. | @Ann-Marie Breaux (Deactivated) |
Known Issues
General
App | Known issue | Workaround | JIRA issue | Product Owner |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Requests | Requests app results/filters columns are not sorting properly, descending or ascending. This should be addressed in Morning Glory. | There is no workaround at this time. | @Stephanie Buck , @Brooks Travis | |
Requests | After opening the Request details pane, an error message appears. This is related to the hold clearance report and is related to large data sets. It seems the report is not adding current actions to the report. | This is partially addressed by adding indexes in the DB | @Brooks Travis | |
Requests | Hold clearance report times out with large data sets. | @Brooks Travis | ||
Title level request data migration |
