New and Noteworthy in TD/OMS V9 Release 1 (Final Release)
Includes all changes for V9 Milestone 3
| Comparing detail with archived version | Source members (aka Details) are archived but it is not possible to compare and display the differences between the current version and a archived version. Many of our customers use a lot of SQL and would like to be able to do such a comparison.
|
|---|
| Show history in GUI is able to drill down in downstream and branched applications. (00330). | History views in TD/OMS used to drill down automatically in related downstream applications and branches. This can now be controlled by a "Drill Down" button in the toolbar of the Transfer and Object History views.
|
|---|
| History support is now available for single source members and messages (E-101). | If a source member is used by itself as a copy source or as a script then the history was not build correctly. This has been fixed throughout TD/OMS. Effected views are the Details View, the History View, The Object History view and the compare and merge functions.
|
|---|
| New Task creation improvements (00704) | The application selection box has been moved to the attributes page. In addition, the continuation wizards have been improved. Please see the updated documentation here.
|
|---|
| Custom compile command via RDi Plug-In | You can now set the application/environment/library other than the one defined for the object.
|
|---|
| Automatic creation of RSE Hosts | RSE Hosts are now created automatically if they don't exist. This further reduces the need to open the RSE perspective. |
|---|
| RDi Error List Enhancements | This fix enables you to fill the EVFEVENT file for any object, including the ones without source. When you request to open the Error List or after a "compile" or CRTPGM the error list will be visible if it the corresponding EVFEVENT member exists in the target library. |
|---|
| Provide a Git Interface | With this release we make available the Git Interface. This feature enables you to hook your IBMi source code into Git.
More information can be found here.
|
|---|
| Links are added | When a request or Task is created from the Gravity Workflow, the linking system is used to create links. This makes the links avaialble in TD/OMS.
|
|---|

| I00784 Create New Object Templates | New Object Templates are used to quickly create a new object. The template already fills in a number of fields so that new objects can be create quickly. New Object Templates can be created from the New Object wizard. Right click on a Task and select 'New/Object...' to show a list of available templates. See this tutorial to show how it is done.
|
|---|
| 00739 - Unassign Programmer | When right clicked on a task and tried to assign/unassign the programmer, it does not allow it. This has been solved in the dialog.

Other issues/enhancements resolved
- I00095 - Problem with scheduling on italian date format
- 00572 - Request list does not refresh when the description is changed
- V90KE.T0014 - CRTPGMOMS uses release from previous settings
- I00632 - A compile command with a preceding space ends in error when it is executed.
- I00635 - Source references in TD/OMS repository not updated correctly when multiple environments with *keep are defined.
- I00646 - Source references not changed for all environments when environment authorisation is defined.
- 00571 - Scheduler timing error
- I00617 - Relation monitor does not always rebuild the module relations
- I00625 - Compile fails with too many libraries in library list when using a restricted number of libraries (25)
- I00627 - Jira integration fails if project name is a reserved JPQL name.
- I00628 - When the preference for the Jira server ends with / then cannot open a Jira issue in the browser
- I00632 - Compile statement with preceding space ends in error
- I00634 - An internal error occurred during: "Loading"
- I00644 - OMXFER: Temporary workfiles are not accesible by OMSTCPSVR job user
- I00664 - When a programmer is changed on a task the focus will be returned to the editor that the user had focus.
- I00620 - A request filter could be drawn multiple times if we select its contents and the filter itself
- I00620 - Filters and tasks can't drawn twice on the same chart
- I00620 - When a filter doesn't have any tasks for any reason, then it is not drawn
- I00620 - When request filters were drawn, it didn't jump to the start date of the earliest scope
- I00620 - If a realized start and realized end date of an event are not set they are shown as N/A in the tooltip (the expected dates are used in order for the event to be drawn)
- I00620 - If an event has a realized completion date and its in the past it means its completed so the user can't drag or extend it (its locked). If it is absent it will be calculated based on the duration defined between the expected start and expected end dates
- I00620 - In the case that a realized start date exists but not the realized end one the user can't drag and drop the event but he can extend it (the event is considered in progress). The expected dates will be shown as well. If the expected start date is moved it will be shown (despite the fact that there is a realized start date) and the expected end date will be calculated accordingly as well based on the duration in days. But if the expected end date is moved then the expected start date will take the value of the fixed realized start date. This is because there can't be 2 starting points (expected start and realized start) and 1 ending point (expected end since the realized end is missing) so the realized start date "wins" over the expected start one for the duration calculation
- I00620 - If the realized end date is set today or in the future then it's wrong so that date will be cleared on the fix object and the expected end date will be used instead to draw the event
- I00613 - Request and task filters could not be drawn together
- I00616 - If there were many request filters drawn in the Gantt chart, when you press the refresh button only 1 was drawn
