Summary of Changes

IFS IDEAS 6.20.0.2 is a hot fix to resolve the following issues:

Issues Resolved

Budget Alert

The Budget Alert process was experiencing performance issues when evaluating large amounts of data. This caused slowness in the main application and Internal Server errors in iApprove. The process was rebuilding the Budget Alert tables every time a check against the budget was required. 

This process has been refactored to update the Commitment tables and the Budget Totals table on each entry of a transaction that is being controlled through Budget Alert. The removal of the table rebuilds makes the evaluation of commitments against budgets almost instantaneous. There is still an option to manually rebuild the tables if needed. The affected screens are listed below:
