Features and Improvement

DEV-6763  An input stream can sometimes have a stream set with a future date relative to the stream set being generated for the output stream; see Managing Future Stream Sets. You can now use the pipe properties → Basic Settings → Read Future Data check box to use future-dated stream sets when the:

  • input stream has any Period option. Previously Period had to be Transactional
  • pipe has any Data to Read option. Previously Data to Read had to be All or Custom.

Bug Fixes

DEV-6766  Dashboards now load correctly. In some cases, loading a dashboard was displaying an empty, white screen.

DEV-6743  An action to update a stream item no longer hangs sometimes. This occurred if a modified stream had not been published to the database.

DEV-6751  Fixed an issue that, in some cases, caused the export process to freeze if the Excel template was configured incorrectly.

DEV-6762  Exporting to an Excel template now correctly processes records from single row sources in a multi-row area.

DEV-6757  In a grid, double-clicking on the last, empty column correctly runs actions. In version 8.0.5, the action would not complete and the client had to be refreshed.
