Notable fixesThe following problems and their fixes are ordered by potential impact to customers, starting with the most significant fixes. Problem category Short description Description Steps to reproduce Condition BuilderPRB1240334KB0687788 If using a dot-walking field of an extended table, the Condition Builder v3 results in 'empty' conditions The new report designer's condition builder shows empty conditions if the report uses dot-walking of an extended table. Fields are shown in the filter and breadcrumb, but not in the listed conditions. Since this has to do with extended tables, first change the property glide.ui.list.allow_extended_fields to true. Create a new report of any type in the new Report Designer. Set the table to task. Add a new filter with the change task > close code. Save the report. Refresh the page. Expand the filter. The filter is empty. Service Catalog PRB1268040 KB0691890 In Kingston, a setValue client script causes the catalog item to have a changed form After the upgrade to Kingston, while navigating from the catalog form to the previous screen, a popup 'Are you sure you want to leave this page' is displayed even though no changes are done on the form. Refer to the listed Known Error KB article for details. Usage Analytics PRB1295059 The usage data of the last month should not be uploaded if the job context is empty OOM exceptions are thrown due to many records being uploaded in the past month payload. Tables and Dictionary PRB1296576 Adding elements to a TPP grandparent and grandchild table in an update set can cause the alias corruption When adding an element to a particular table in the CMDB hierarchy, and another element to a grandchild (or lower) of that table, within the same update set, the storage aliases can be corrupted so that the elements are stored in the same column. This can cause functional problems and data loss.

Human Resources Service Management PRB1292852 The HR case "Restrict Query" business rule is invoked multiple times for non-HR records The HR application has custom Approve and Reject UI actions for the sysapproval_approver form. These UI actions check whether the record being approved is an HR case to determine whether to display or not. This check is done with a GlideRecord lookup against the HR Case table, as opposed to a class name check. This causes the page to load slowly when there are many approval records or tasks in the system. As an admin, add a log statement to the HR case 'Restrict Query' business rule script. Log in as a user with no HR roles who has a requested approval record for a non-HR record (such as a Change Request). As the non-HR user, load the sysapproval_approver form for the non-HR approval.

One of the conditions is whether the tables are part of list returned from calling getCITypes(). For some users, the root is 'cmdb_ci' and not 'cmdb'. However, 'cmdb' is queried for the child and extension tables, which causes patterns to fail.
