Defect 1359126: In the Projects hub, when you clicked Other Actions » Add Phase, chose to create a phase from a project or project template, and then clicked Continue, the next screen did not display as it should have and you sometimes received a timeout message. This occurred if your security role did not have full access to all applications and the appropriate record access in Security Settings.
Defect 1363008: In some cases, if your security role gives you only limited record-level access to projects (for example, only access to projects for which you are the project manager), you received the following error when you tried to navigate to an application in the Projects hub: "AppendParameters IEnumerable parameter may not be empty."
Defect 1311627: This issue occurred when you clicked + Add Billing Terms and then created billing terms for a phase-level project. If you selected an existing project without phases as basis for the billing terms, the phase name and number did not display on the Billing Terms form in Edit Mode.
Defect 1337995: On the Rates tab of the Billing Terms form, after you selected and saved a rate table in the Rate Table field in the Expense or Consultants sections, the rate table number incorrectly displayed in that field, instead of the rate table name.

This message appeared because the required field contained no entry for that project. However, the message should not have displayed because the Billing Client fields do not apply to overhead projects and are hidden for those projects, to prevent data entry.
Defect 1330054: This issue occurred in List View when you tried to filter a project's value either by the Number column or the Name column. If a project's number or name was displayed as part of a breadcrumb (for example, 0000000.00 > 00BOA), the phase and task levels were not listed.
Defect 1345263: If you selected the Enable Overall Revenue Limit option for a project in the Revenue section of the Accounting tab of the Projects form and then selected Accounting » Revenue Generation and ran the revenue generation process for the project, the limit amounts were not applied.

On the Overview tab in the Projects hub, when you clicked the hyperlink in the Biller field, you received the following error message: "The multi-part identifier 'EmployeeCustomTabFields.CustDirector' could not be bound."
Defect 1358707: When you viewed projects in List view, you received an error message saying that specific multi-part identifiers could not be bound. This defect happened when you created and saved a search that used starts with, contains, or does not contain operators with an employee or string (for example, client)
data type.
Defect 1344612: If you had data displayed on the Project Review form and you selected a different project, the progress spinner disappeared when the new project's header information displayed, making it look as if the new project data was completely loaded. In actuality, the data for the previous project was still displayed, which was confusing. It took a number of additional seconds before the detail area finally displayed the correct project's data. In this Vantagepoint version, the progress spinner does not disappear until all data for the newly selected project is displayed.
Defect 1345610: When you searched for a project with an EAC Planned Billing amount of zero, but with a high Contract/Fee expense amount, you received the following warning: "Expense EAC Billing is higher than Contract."
Defect 1363682: When you reviewed WBS 2 (phase) and WBS 3 (task) level information on the Project Review form, the ETC Planned Cost column was empty.

You set the Scale option to Week.
Defect 1344718: When you created a table dashpart with the project dashpart base and included columns based on drop-down type user defined fields, you received the following error message: "Subquery returned more than 1 value. This is not permitted when the subquery follows =, !=, <, <=, >, >= or when the subquery is used as an expression. The statement has been terminated."

Defect 1264536: In the Columns grid of the Columns & Groups tab for a report, you could not specify how data aligned in the column by typing an initial character (for example, "C" for Center) in the Alignment field. As a result, if you tried to select the alignment in this way, nothing happened.

Defect 1342495: When you applied Electronic Payment fields as record search criteria and then tried to run Accounts Payable reports, you received the following error message:
"QueryRoutines.GetExpressionEntityDelegate (vendor). vendor is not handled."
Defect 1346597: When you ran the Purchase Order Cost Distribution Detail report (under the Purchasing category), the report displayed incorrect values in the Project Amount column because it used the value in Total Amount as the multiplier instead of the value in Unit Price. This occurred even when the line item details used unit-based distribution on the Line Items tab of the Purchase Orders form in the desktop application.

When you set the Ship To option to Other, the fields on the Shipping tab, from the Name field through the Email field, were disabled.
Defect 1337576: This issue occurred when you ran an advanced project search to find unpaid invoices for a project. If you used the following search conditions:
In Row 1 of the Search ResultsSection of Advanced Search, you selected the default Status=Active at the project level for the Add Field.

Defect 1353626: When you configured a project lookup on the New Project Search dialog box and used the "=" operator in a search criterion, the "=" operator was sometimes changed to "N". This sometimes occurred when the search criterion was a user-defined drop-down field.

On the Access Rights tab of the Roles form, you set the Functional Area option to Reports.
Below the Reports for this Role grid, you clicked + Add/Remove to display the Reports dialog box.
Defect 1361350: In some cases, when you used a query in Advanced Search to set up record-level access to projects for a security role, the query took a long time to run and sometimes resulted in a timeout error. Other processes occurring in Vantagepoint at the same time also had degraded performance.
Defect 1350832: On the Users form, when you changed a user's status from Active to Inactive and the user had the Windows Authentication check box selected, the change was not automatically saved as it should have been. It incorrectly required you to enter a password in the Password field on the form even though the Password field was not accessible.
Defect 1353534: When you searched for the values of custom fields (for example, Name or Number) from a user-defined hub on the Conditions dialog box, the search was not recognized. This issue occurred when you did the following:

The approver rejected the invoice.
You resubmitted the record.
Defect 1356792: On the Progress tab of the AP Invoice Approvals form, when you exported data from the Assignments grid to Microsoft Excel, the date fields should have displayed in Excel using the local time from a user’s workstation, instead of the UTC time (Universal Time Coordinated).
Defect 1355254: When you tried to post a timesheet on the Time and Expense Posting form (Transaction Center » Time and Expense Posting), approved timesheets were not displayed. This occurred when the timesheet and the approval record had mismatched statuses.
Defect 1346687: This issue occurred when you selected the Payments option and set the Payments to Autonumber field to Electronic Payments for the selected bank in the Bank Transactions grid in Settings » Accounting » Transactions.

When you tried to close the dialog box, you received a “Tax Codes are Required for AP Transactions” message. This occurred if you do not maintain separate balance sheets in Vantagepoint (Settings » Organization » General) and you did not require a project to be entered for AP vouchers.
Defect 1334365: The list of import fields that you can select for the contacts data import appeared to contain duplicates (for example, multiple City fields). This was confusing and made it difficult to tell which fields you should map your data to when importing contacts. This occurred because those fields actually do appear more than once in each record in the Contacts hub, but in different contexts. To resolve this issue, some of the field names in the import fields list have been changed to indicate more specifically the data that you should map to them (for example, Firm City).
Defect 1347453: This issue applies if your firm is configured with more than 13 periods per year. When you tried to open a new period (on the Open New Period dialog box) after period 13, but within the number of periods per year established for your firm, an error message indicated that the new period did not fall within the allowed number of periods per year even when it did. For example, if you tried to open a period between 14 and 20, you received the following error message: "Period number must be between 1 and 20."
