Resolved
Issue: An issue was identified when changing a system label for a field of a sponsor under Setup UI Content > Proposal Number. The change was not accepted and did not display the new label when adding the sponsor to the study.
Resolution: The issue has been corrected. Now, when a system administrator makes a change under Setup UI Content > Proposal Number, the system displays the new label when adding a sponsor to the study.
Issue: When filtering by project number in the "Studies By Department" report, the system did not display any results.
Resolution: The issue was caused by a misconfiguration in the filtering logic. The problem has been fixed by correcting the query settings.
Issue: A display issue was identified under the "View Details" option in the "View Submission History" section for one of the "My Protocols."
Resolution: We’ve resolved the issue and the display is now correct.
Issue: Previously, when users clicked "Start a Submission Form" for one of the "My Protocols," they were redirected to the studies page instead of staying within the study workspace menu.
Resolution: This behavior was updated to present an AJAX window, consistent with other items in the study workspace menu, allowing users to complete the submission form without leaving the current context.
Issue: The outcome screen could not be accessed to provide decisions for non-study submission forms.
Resolution: The issue was resolved by implementing a fix that restores access to the outcome screen, enabling users to provide decisions as intended.
Issue: Meeting records were not displaying under the "Review Board Meetings" page located in the "My Profile" section.
Resolution: The issue has been resolved, and all meeting records now display correctly under the "Review Board Meetings" page.
Issue: Submission components from the previous board were not displaying under the "View Details" option on the "Submission History" page.
Resolution: The issue was resolved, ensuring submission components from the previous board are now visible under "View Details".
Issue: The submission review process in the submission history transactional details was incorrectly displaying information from the latest review round instead of maintaining the details of the previous rounds.
Resolution: The submission review process has been corrected to accurately retain and display the review details of each round in the submission history transactional details.
Issue: Different rounds were not visible on the components screen under the "View Details" section in the submission history.
Resolution: users can now view components from all rounds on the components screen under the "View Details" section in the submission history.
Issue: Letters created in previous rounds were not being displayed under the letter column in the submission history.
Resolution: Letters from all previous rounds are now correctly displayed under the letter column in the submission history.
Issue: The navigation menu inside the reviewer panel was inaccessible.
Resolution: Updates have been made to ensure the navigation menu in the reviewer panel is now fully accessible once again.
Issue: The labels "Reviewer check list" and "Member check list" on the submission review page contained inconsistent spacing.
Resolution: The labels have been corrected to "Reviewer checklist" and "Member checklist" for consistency.
Issue: Correspondence was staying in edit-mode after being sent, causing confusion and an opportunity to erroneously edit the previously sent correspondence.
Resolution: Now, once correspondence is sent, the editing mode is locked and will remain view-only.
Issue: Confirmation messages to update study data were incorrectly presented when accessing already completed submissions.
Resolution: The system no longer displays a confirmation message to update study data when accessing completed submissions.
Issue: The system failed to time out a user within the designated time frame while they were using the submission processing screen.
Resolution: the system now enforces the designated timeout period appropriately within the submission processing screen.
Issue: Previously, members were unable to access the analyst checklist after a submission was completed.
Resolution: Members are now allowed to access the analyst checklist once after a submission has been completed. The form can be accessed only when the submission is not closed, but should be in read-only mode even when the submission is closed.
Issue: An error occurred when running the expedited report from the reports section of a board.
Resolution: The expedited report can now be successfully ran from the reports section of a board without encountering errors.
Issue: An issue was identified in both self-hosted and hosted environments where the "Study Document Revision" AJAX popup caused the entire screen to gray out.
Resolution: The AJAX popup no longer causes the screen to gray out. Users can now make revisions or add new documents as expected.
Issue: Send email bundle functionality was not working under outcome screen
Resolution: Functionality now working correctly under new user interface and allowing users to select the items to be sent as an email bundle.
