General Fixes and Improvements
- HCE-3025 - Validation now prevents appraisal forms with the same 'ID number' from being created.
- HCE-3331 - Fixed a sorting algorithm bug which would sometimes open the wrong block when editing an appraisal form.
- HCE-3850 - Performance improvements have been made to the scheduled user upload task which significantly reduces the amount of time required to execute.
- HCE-3894 - Fixed a bug in which employees' comments were not being rendered in the feedback blocks in appraisals.
- HCE-3942 - Fixed a bug responsible for sending overdue notifications to users for appraisals that have been completed.
- HCE-3944 - Users with capability 'local/cohort:bypass_screening_report_timespentinactivities' in courses can now see all users in the 'Time Spent in Activities' report.
- HCE-3948 - Courses available to programs are now only courses with an instance of manual enrolment and whose instance is configured with no program restrictions or is restricted to the site selected for the program. Note that this only affects multi-site installations.
- HCE-4011 - The state of appraisals is now included in the 'Performance Appraisal System Report'.
- HCE-4012 - Settings 'local_appraisal | defaultfields' and 'local_appraisal | availablefields' can now be used to control which fields are available in the 'Performance Appraisal System Report'.
- HCE-4013 - Custom user profile fields of type date are now rendered as a proper dates in the performance appraisal system report. This will now allow users to apply date based filtered and the dates themselves will render in a formatted manner rather than a timestamp.
- HCE-4026 - Fixed a bug preventing conditionally visible fields from being saved during a user upload.
- HCE-4027 - When downloading logs, allow users to consume more memory therefore increasing the odds of being able to successfully download them.
- HCE-4033 - Fixed a bug in the scheduling of user uploads whereby execution would be skipped some days.
- HCE-4039 - A new filter parameter has been added to the 'Learning Records' report named 'Include delete users'. This parameter allows users to control whether deleted users are included in the report or not.
- HCE-4078 - The site associated with a program can no longer be changed. If similar functionality is required, users should duplicate the program and change the sites at that point.
