Â !image (114).png|thumbnail! So we can enhance it by putting a link for the settings to add SLAs to open in another tab to setup an SLA and thus we can put a refresh icon like the one in the below screenshot in order to let the user refresh the tab and not the whole page when adding an SLA in another tab. Â !image (113).png|thumbnail! |
| Improvement | A4L-9997 | DIB Request: Add Modified On and By to the litigation and corporate matters GRID | |

| Improvement | A4L-9957 | Delegation for contract approvers and signees | The delegation feature works as a reassignment of records, where in case a certain user is going on a vacation, then the alternative user can be the assignee on his/her records instead. The requirement is to improve this feature to also include approvers and signees on contracts. So in case an approver or a signee is going on vacation, then another user should take his/her place in order to approve or sign the contract. This should work on Collaborators (CP users) as well, not just core users. We will be adding the OOO feature for CP users. *+Note+*: When dealing with CP users, they either need to have type "*Both*" or "*Collaborator*" so they can be included in the delegation and use the out of office feature. Also when delegating or selecting an alternative user for a CP user, the users involved must belong to the same company. |

| Improvement | A4L-9796 | Al Khayat- CP report | AKI want to be able to generate a report/filter on client portal requests showing the departments the requests come from. Let's say CP users from different or common departments submit requests, the a4l user wants to be able to see from which departments the requests are coming and not just the name of the requester. Umar's suggestion: Each client portal user can be assigned a "company" -> We can set the companies as "HR Department", "Insurance Department", etcbut we can't view the company from the request/contract page for now |
| Improvement | A4L-9795 | East Nets- Add link in client portal | The ability to add a link (one drive, google drive) or attach a document from the client portal request. * A field can be added in addition to the existing one where we can attach a doc, this field is related to a link. * This field is to be added in both requests: matters/contracts. * From the core side this field should be available in the general info tab (custom field) under matters and in the details section under contracts. * This field should be a clickable link, where it will open directly a new tab or in the same tab. Add custom field of type url(hyperlink)(to be added to the cp request types as well) |
| Improvement | A4L-9507 | Global Diligence- Add custom fields to the columns in the persons grid | ability to choose the custom fields in person grid -> columns drop-down with the same way and limitation of custom fields in company grid |

Please see the attached screenshot. |
| Improvement | A4L-9364 | Support for Foreign Exchange Gain/Loss in Bills | A foreign currency gain (or loss) is realized when a payment is made against an invoice using an exchange rate that is different than when the bill was created. Automatically we need to calculate the realized gains at the time the payment made. |

| Bug | A4L-10365 | DB error when installing spain SQL Scripts v9.6 | |
| Bug | A4L-10253 | Internal Task - add missing folders for cloud instances | some cloud instances do not have a folder called "cache" under files/api/storage/framework so we created them manually to avoid any error in iDocs or any other feature. We need to create a release script to create folders on *instance's path*Â for the below structure *if* *not exists*Â !Screenshot-1.png|thumbnail! |
| Bug | A4L-10216 | Save and Create another Task is not relating by default to matter/contract | When creating a task from a matter/contract and selecting 'Save and Create Another', it opens a new task that is not related to any matter/contract. Â |

| Bug | A4L-10145 | All kendo Grids are not loading data on the first time | If we create a new user, we will notice that all Kendo grids are firing an error on the first load. This issue is due to a PHP warning so it's only reproducible on localhost. !screenshot-1.png|thumbnail! |
| Bug | A4L-10136 | Inaccurate data in reports related to invoicing | In the KPI time entries report, the displayed value for each time log is being rounded, While the calculations are done without rounding each value. So we are getting in some cases something like this: 0.00 + 0.00 = 0.01 We need to fix this rounding issue and make sure that all the reports related to the invoicing process have the same values as the invoice when created The reports that should be fixed are all the reports in the time entries sections in the report page. The exported files should be always consistent with the table displayed on the site. !image-2023-06-14-17-12-29-921.png|thumbnail! !screenshot-1.png|thumbnail! !screenshot-2.png|thumbnail! |
| Bug | A4L-10031 | Custom Field "Upload Document" error handling | Using the newly added "Upload Document" custom field, and submitting a form, we should display a message to the user in case: # File type is not in the allowed types # File size is larger than 51 MB (the default size in config.php) In case one of these scenarios occurred then we should show a feedback error message to the user informing them that the file was not uploaded. This should be checked in the following: * Person add & edit form * Case edit form * Contract edit form * Task edit form * Company add & edit form |
| Bug | A4L-9910 | All langauge values are mandatory in settings | in settings -> edit form for any screen, there should be only one value mandatory which is the current language for the user. For example, if the user is using the interface in english then only the english field is required and the others are not optional and when saving the form then the system should fill all other languages same as the value for the main language if the user didn't set any value. As you can see in the attached screenshot, the interface is in arabic (screenshot-1.png) then the user filled only the arabic and english values so when saving the form then the system should save the empty fields with the same values of the main langauge (arabic field). So we need to apply the same behavior that is located in the quick add forms to all screens (add and edit forms) in settings by displaying only the main language (based on user's interface) as a mandatory field and when clicking on "more fields" then we will display all other languages as optional fields. example on the forms that needs an enhancement:  # Opponent Position # Stages # Success Probabilities # Meeting Types # Reminder Types # Task Types # Client Positions # Company Relation Types # Licenses and Waivers Permissions # Time Entries -> Categories # Persons -> Titles |
| Bug | A4L-9843 | Long text is not displayed in grids | # cases grid -> status comments # reminders grid : ## related matter ## related contract / document ## related task |

| Bug | A4L-9419 | Intellectual property redirecting to dashboard | In invoice > matters , pressing on the intellectual property is redirecting to Dashboard. |
| Bug | A4L-9340 | Time Entry Validation and Regression | # On edit for invoiced/reimbursed time entries, a validation need to be added on the backend side to prevent from adding new effort (Laravel (time calendar) and CodeIgniter (add/edit time entry popup) ) # on edit prevent calendar click event # Regression on add time entry: *Current Behavior:* Only when the user already filled effective effort field and description field, if he selects a category that has effective effort/description a Confirmation modal appears asking the user if he want to replace the current effort/description with the categories' default ones -> when clicking on ok the values will be replaced. *Expected behavior:* Also when the effort/description fields are empty and the user selects a category that has a default time effort or/and a default description, these default values should be set to the corresponding fields of the time entry form |
| Bug | A4L-9291 | Missing actions in permission scheme | # the below actions should be present in the permission scheme in money module under controller clients instead of putting them in the exempted list: ##  '/clients/upload_file/', ##  '/clients/delete_document/', ##  '/clients/download_file/', # we have now 2 actions to load the attachments: one is the GET request clients/documents and the AJAX request '/clients/load_documents/' so we need to remove the one in exempted list and let the Ajax call the main one # migration script (release script) to update the permissions for the existent clients  As you can see in the attached screenshots, we don't have the upload, delete and download actions in permission scheme page. |
