ESU - Sum Up KPI & Budget Reporting Project Epic Overview

• Export Fix: Resolved an issue that prevented Excel and CSV exports from completing when the flagged column was included.
• Container Issue List: Default columns have been updated to align with legacy behaviour (pre-version 4.7.0), and sub-tasks at the root hierarchy level are no longer shown in the container issues panel.
• Various minor bug fixes and performance enhancements have been implemented to improve overall stability.

⚙️ Fast Configuration

• Copy & Paste Configurations: Setup is now significantly faster. You can copy and paste configurations directly between issues, projects, and issue types, eliminating the need to manually replicate settings across similar environments.

📊 DetailViewEditor Improvements

• Smarter Layouts: We have upgraded the layout saving functionality. The DetailViewEditor now remembers your active filters and specific column sizes in addition to visible columns, ensuring your view remains exactly how you left it.

⏳ Enhanced Timesheets

• Better Reporting: The Timesheet view now supports Jira fields and layout management. This brings our signature Excel-like editing and overview capabilities directly to your time tracking workflow.

This hotfix resolves a bug that caused Jira webhooks to fail with a NullPointerException. This issue occurred specifically when a webhook attempted to read or serialize the values of the (Epic Sum Up) Allocation Field or (Epic Sum Up) Progress Customfield during its execution.

• Improved Custom Field Support
  • Scriptrunner Issue Picker Custom Fields (currently read only)
  • Jira Misc Custom Fields (JMCF) Number, Text and Time in Status
  • Project Specifc Select Fields

A new global setting, "Enable Progress Bar REST API" has been introduced. When activated, this feature enables the calculation of values for our progress bar custom fields directly through the Jira REST API for both individual issues and issue searches.

This enhancement is particularly important for integrations with Confluence Cloud, as it allows the "Jira Legacy" macro to correctly render our progress bars.

Important Notes Performance Considerations
Please be aware that enabling this feature may have an impact on the performance of your Jira REST API. The performance effect can be more noticeable if the progress bar custom fields are configured globally for all projects and issue types. We recommend monitoring your Jira instance's performance after enabling this setting.

• Excel Export: Resolved an issue where date and datetime fields were being handled incorrectly during the export process. All date-based fields should now be formatted correctly in the exported Excel files.
• Detail View Editor: Addressed bugs related to copy and paste functionality. Copying and pasting content within the editor should now work as expected

• Timesheet Export: The worklog date is now correctly included in both XLSX and CSV exports from the Timesheet.
• Data Center Auditing: Our plugin will no longer generate a redundant 'App Installed' audit log every time a DataCenter node is booted.
• Issue Hierarchy: Resolved a bug where new issues created via the Detail View Editor were being displayed under an incorrect parent issue.
• Data Aggregation: Fixed an issue where aggregation values were not updating properly after a value was changed using inline editing.

• Default comment sorting: Comments are now sorted from newest to oldest by default, ensuring the most recent activity is always shown first.
• Dedicated permissions tab: All permission settings have been moved to a dedicated "Permissions" tab within the global configuration for easier access and management.
• Global time logging toggle: Administrators can now globally enable or disable the ability to log time from the Detail View Editor via a new toggle in the configuration settings.
• Improved timesheet filters: Column filters have been added to the timesheet.

• Resolved a null pointer exception in the summary panel's version date, occurring when an issue referenced a deleted fix version ID

• Our progress bar format supports a new placeholder for the remaining budget.

Bugfix:

Summary Panel configurations per issue type(s) where not applied correctly in project settings.
