Bug Description

ID

When recalculating a MPLI in a DCR, there is an unexpected exception (NPE).

PFCD-6641

When there is a Price List publishing template with macros saved as XLSM and you use async download, the downloaded file is XLSX and cannot be opened; you need to change the file extension manually.

PFCD-6703

When you export a large Price List to Excel using the async download, you get a XLSX file instead of XLSM. When you change the extension, Excel offers to repair the file. When you accept it, the file can be opened and all the data rows are there.

PFCD-6707

In a LPG, it is not possible to recalculate a header with the user role "Edit LPG".

PriceAnalyzer Fixed Issues

Bug Description

ID

Bug Description

ID

When you load CcyValidTo dates into the currency Data Source, they are ignored. This correct behaviour and the Pricefx documentation has been updated in this sense. The system derives the CcyValidTo date from the next row's CcyValidFrom date automatically after every upload, ensuring that the dates remain consistent in any event.

PFCD-6313

In a specific scenario, Data Entitlement in PriceAnalyzer does not work correctly.

PFCD-6369

When you download a large Datamart to Excel and try to open the downloaded file, you get an error message that there is an issue with the file. After you agree to have the file recovered, the file can be opened and all the data rows are there.

PFCD-6504

In Data Sources, if there is a change in the Data Entitlement filter but the group is not changed or no new line is added, the Save button is not shown.

PFCD-6558

Download of millions of Data Source rows to CSV is possible even though it should be disabled.
