Create Job

Bug Fix

FFX-2101

We fixed an issue related to Quote to Job that is triggered in with other custom triggers causing a Salesforce limit exceeded error. We also added new checkbox options for the Quote to Job Components:

Grid

Bug Fix

FFX-2081

A redundancy issue was addressed when both the quick add feature on the item picker and the change data capture (CDC) on the data grid was enabled.

Now, if the quick add is enabled on the item picker, the user doesn’t have refresh the grid to clear the green highlighted cells.

Before, the data grid showed all added items highlighted in green and the user would manually refresh the grid to clear the highlight.

FFX-2126

We fixed an issue where the Component Window couldn’t be closed without the name.

If a Grid View has the name removed and the user attempts to close the view, an error is shown.

FFX-2159

We fixed an overlay issue causing cells not to be highlighted as users clicked with the sticky columns section of the data grid

FFX-2247

We fixed an issue in the Data Grid so the grid doesn’t overlay the Salesforce Header Component.

Item Picker

Bug Fix

FFX-2150

We fixed an issue where the items in the Data Grid were flickering every time an item was either inserted manually or the quick add option was used.

FFX-2085

We fixed an issue where duplicate items were created when using the Quick Add option on the item picker and Enter was clicked twice.

Version 1.227 (10/25/23)

Type Issue Summary

Grid

New Feature

FFX-1682

We added a new feature to the Data Grid which allows users to create their own grid views. A user can configure the grid to display only columns relevant to them. The views are saved for each user, allowing them to retain the grid views after logging out and back in.

For more information. see Set and Use a Custom Data Grid View.

Bug Fix

FFX-2060

We fixed an issue in the Data Grid where the grid headers weren’t scrolling with the rest of the grid when a filter was applied and scrolling horizontally.

FFX-2079

We fixed an issue in the Data Grid where two different users see the default view created by the other user.

Item Picker

Enhancement

FFX-1920

We made an enhancement to the item picker to improve the speed for picking items. If configured for quick add, the picker will allow the user to enter a part number and click the return key to add the item into the target object. Once the action is complete, the cursor is returned to the item picker search to allow the user to enter the next part number.

Item Picker /
Grid

Bug Fix

FFX-1991

We have fixed an issue that was causing the first row in the grid to be un-selectable in certain scenarios.

FFX-1789

We have fixed an issue which would prevent the grid from refreshing when the status of the parent object changes. This fix will allow the grid to be read-only when the parent has a read-only status and to be in edit mode if the parent’s status is not a read-only status.

FFX-1781

We have added a spinner animation to the Item Picker and the Data Grid to notify the user that the component is loading, if the load time is not instantaneous.

FFX-2068

We fixed an issue where scrolling horizontally with or without sticky columns caused an error.

File Viewer

Bug Fixes

FFX-2082

We fixed an issue where the Sync checkbox was grayed out and couldn’t be selected. Not being able to check the Sync checkbox caused report files not to sync with FieldFX Mobile.

The Sync checkbox can now be selected.

For more information, see Select Items in the FXL Data Grid.

Grid

Bug Fixes

1775

We have fixed an issue in the FXL Data Grid when changing the time in a cell. Before you could only enter the time in 5 minute increments and using Bksp doesn’t erase the time entered.

This issue fixes the issue so now the user can manually enter a time in the cell.

See Edit a FXL Data Grid Cell for more information.

1749

We have fixed an issue where the SOQL filter setting isn’t interpreting the SOQL correctly all the time.

With this version you can use these filters:

  • Multiple $source

  • Multiple $user

  • $source and $user together

  • $User or $user

  • $Source or $source

1756

We fixed an issue where the Date Time calendar disappears prematurely when clicking a date-time field not allowing a time to be selected. If the user tries to enter the time first, the calendar still vanishes.

Item Picker

Bug Fixes

1757

We fixed an issue where a duplicate item is added to the grid when adding items from the Lightning Item builders (ticket item, price book item).

Now when selecting the original item and adding it to the Grid, it’s no longer selected in the item builder Lightning component.

Bug Fixes

Issue # Area Summary

1661

Grid

We fixed an issue with updates to the grid where the grid loses focus and the user needs to mouse click in the next cell to continue updating.

The user can update values in different cells without interruption.

For more information, see FieldFX Lightning Data Grid

Version 1.208 (6/13/23)

Enhancements

Issue # Summary

905

We have enhanced working in the FXL Data Grid to allow working in large data sets. Users can now update multiple data rows in quick succession. They won’t have to wait for the grid to refresh. Neither will they encounter row lock errors due to various background processes triggered by the edit.

For more information, see FieldFX Lightning Data Grid

904

We have enhanced the refresh of the Data Grid and updated the visible fields.

If there are pending updates, a Updates Pending button appears. Clicking on the button will update the grid but stay in edit mode. The updates are highlighted in green for 10 seconds. If there are updates, those cells are highlighted in blue.

If the updated field is the same as the edited field, the user’s edits overwrite the last external edit. When the user finishes their edit session, they can click the Updates Pending button to see all the updates they have just made.

For more information, see FieldFX Lightning Data Grid

Version 1.205 (4/5/2023)

Enhancements

Issue # Summary

1410

We have made an enhancement to the column widths in the FXL Data Grid. With this release, the minimum column width must be at least 4 px, except for the last column in the grid, where the minimum is 20 px. The initial column width is 210 px.

If the number of columns in the grid is not enough to fill the width of the grid, the column widths are increased to fill the extra space in the grid.

Also, for more information on Column Widths, click the link.

1275

We have enhanced the Item Picker Setup page so the maximum number of items shown in the Item Picker is now configurable. If there is no number set in the field, the default of 100 items ends up being shown in the Item Picker.

Even though setting a maximum number to 500, a high number like that can impact performance and cause a degradation in grid display. Start with 100 at first. If there is a degradation, have your admin lower the number.

For more information, see the Maximum Number of Items to Display row in the Settings table in the FX Item Picker Setup topic.

Bug Fixes

Issue # Summary

1009

We fixed an issue where the user couldn’t upload a file larger than 4 MB. With this version, the user can now upload files, up to a limit of 2 GB.

1374

We fixed an issue where some customers experienced the highlight cell not saying selected when scrolling up on the FXL Data Grid. With this release, the highlighted cell stays selected when moving up or down using the arrow keys.

1428

We fixed an issue where the following error occurs when processing action responses:

Uncaught Error happened when processing action responses [Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'init') Callback failed: apex://FXLC.fxl_controller_reactGrid/ACTION$getSessionld]

1354

We fixed an issue in the FXL Data Grid where the time incorrectly displays if the date is prior to daylight savings time.

With this release, the new date/time picker has corrected the issue. The time appears correctly. Additionally, for the time picker, if you type on an empty cell, the time defaults to now. In a cell already with a value, the cell opens to that value.
