Bug Fixes
- We've restricted the code breakdown to up to 10 split codes to prevent an error from occurring. This change applies when you add an expense or when you set the default employee code breakdown. Previously, if you attempted to add more than 10 split codes, only the first 10 were saved. (173079)
- We've amended the mobile app so that when adding an expense that has been configured to include either a date or time user-defined field, the field will always now display correctly for completion by the claimant. Previously, the user-defined field of type date/time was not always displaying and if the field had been defined as mandatory then the expense item could not be saved to the claim. (189343)
- We've updated the mobile app copy expense item functionality to ensure that if you copy a mileage item that begins the journey at home, the number of miles remains the same as the original item copied. (189854)
- We've updated the mobile app to ensure the details display correctly when disputing an expense item that has been returned during the validation service. (189875)
- We've improved the performance of the address lookup by reducing the number of searches made to retrieve the address details. Previously, the address lookup was multiplied by the number of address labels, but now, a single lookup is performed regardless of the number of global or personal labels in the system. (190404)
- We've amended the mobile app so that when adding the mileage expenses, only active vehicles appear in the list for selection by the claimant. (190533)
- We've made improvements to the mobile app when receiving background notifications. This includes different scenarios for both iOS and Android devices. (190569)
- We've updated the mobile app so that when a user-defined field applies to an expense item of type date/time, the user is notified if the details are not completed when the field is mandatory. (190595)
Enhancements
- We've written a new suite of automated tests for Android that will run in the app centre, to make sure that the key areas of the app are working correctly. (188686)
- We've changed our background receipt storage code to improve the amount of time it takes to upload a receipt and complete the OCR processing. We've also added tracing to allow us to monitor the performance and introduced POLLY to regulate the number of retries for the OCR processing. (189864)
- We've made an enhancement to the way the mobile app retrieves your receipts from storage and displays them. Previously, all of the receipts were retrieved at once. Now, each image is retrieved and displayed before retrieving the next one. Then, when you choose to add a new receipt or edit or delete an existing one, only the receipt you are working on is changed in the wallet, while all others remain permanently displayed. This significantly improves the performance where there are a lot of receipts to display. (189865)
