What's New
This release includes only resolved issues.
Resolved Issues
This release contains the following resolved issues:
WFM now correctly determines the start/end times for full-day time-off items during the Time-Off Bidding process. Previously, WFM failed to determine the start/end times in certain configurations when they were set in Rotating Patterns. (WFM-32971, WFM-32392)
WFM logins no longer fail for unknown reasons. Previously, logins sometimes failed in high-load, load-balanced environment, requiring the server to be restarted to clear the failed login message. (WFM-32941)
WFM Sever now successfully establishes SSL/TLS communication to backup Configuration Server (CS) in primary mode after the CS switch-over from primary to backup. (WFM-32803)
WFM's Master Schedule Change Approval process now reliably approves selected schedule changes. Previously, WFM sometimes approved an incorrect schedule change instead of the selected one. (WFM-32768)
When overtime is inserted outside of the shift start/end times, WFM now uses a generic unpaid Exception instead of a generic unpaid break to cover gaps between shifts and overtime. This fix prevents the need to configure different shifts for every gap. (WFM-32766)
WFM Server no longer terminates intermittently when the [auth] provider configuration option is enabled. (WFM-32683)
