Bridgeway Suite 8.10.0

Service Pack 5 Release

Summary

---

• Version(s) patched:

  8.10.0

• Date Released:

  07/31/2017

• Issues:
  • In eCounsel, when a user changes an existing matter from a Matter Type belonging to a Type Profile that requires the Law Area to a Matter Type belonging to a Type Profile that does not require the Law Area, the Law Area lists do not refresh and can prevent the user from saving the record.
  • For Suite deployments using an Oracle WebLogic Application Server, users are unable to log into Suite Manager with SAML enabled.
  • When a user designates himself/herself as the approver and pre-approver in the configuration for the Invoice Routing Rule and approves an invoice where he/she is the approver and pre-approver, the invoice is not routed to the supervisor and the invoice status cannot be changed.
  • If the Invoice Logical Group is selected in the eCounsel Invoice Settings in Suite Manager, the Invoice Summary report displays "Vendor Not Found." when certain users run the report.
  • In the Global Assign Wizard, if a user selects a player that is assigned to a matter with a Player Type and Role, matters on which the player has the same Player Type and Role do not appear in the list of matters to select, even if the player record has an end date.
  • In eCounsel, when a vendor has a foreign currency designated as a preferred currency and a Master Approver designated for invoice amounts over a certain USD value, the system is using the value for Original Amount instead of Adjusted Base Amount to determine whether to add the Master Approver.
  • In eCounsel, when a user creates a matter and does not have access to view a field in the New Matter Wizard based on the user's view profile and that field has no caption, the system returns a java.lang.NullPointerException error.
  • In SuperViewer, when a user runs the default Subsidiaries report for an entity and changes the date for the report, a "Missing or invalid session token" error is displayed.
  • When a user runs the Copy Matter Wizard and selects a document in the matter, the system returns the following error: "Could not copy MATTERDOCUMENT. You must select a document type."

• Resolutions:
  • In eCounsel, when a user changes an existing matter from a Matter Type belonging to a Type Profile that requires the Law Area to a Matter Type belonging to a Type Profile that does not require the Law Area, the Law Area lists now refresh and the user can save the record.
  • For Suite deployments using an Oracle WebLogic Application Server, users are now able to log into Suite Manager with SAML enabled.
  • When a user designates himself/herself as the approver and pre-approver in the configuration file for the Invoice Routing Rule and approves an invoice where he/she is the approver and pre-approver, the invoice is routed to the supervisor and the invoice status is changed.
  • If the Invoice Logical Group is selected in the eCounsel Invoice Settings in Suite Manager, the Invoice Summary report no longer displays "Vendor Not Found." when certain users run the report.
  • In the Global Assign Wizard, if a user selects a player that is assigned to a matter with a Player Type and Role, matters on which the player has the same Player Type and Role and an end date now appear in the list of matters to select. If the player’s end date in the existing record ended before the Start date designated in the wizard, then the matter appears in the list. If there is no end date or the end date is equal to or later than the Start date designated in the wizard, the matter does not appear in the list.
  • In eCounsel, when a vendor has a foreign currency designated as a preferred currency and a Master Approver designated for invoice amounts over a certain USD value, the system now uses the invoice's Adjusted Base Amount instead of Original Amount to determine whether to add the Master Approver.
  • In eCounsel, the system no longer returns a java.lang.NullPointerException error when a user creates a matter and does not have access to view a field in the New Matter Wizard based on the user's view profile and that field has no caption.
  • In SuperViewer, users can now change the date for the default Subsidiaries report for an entity without receiving a "Missing or invalid session token" error.
  • When a user runs the Copy Matter Wizard and selects a document in the matter, the system no longer returns the following error: "Could not copy MATTERDOCUMENT. You must select a document type."
