Table 1. Resolved Issues
The following issues, which existed in one or more previous versions, have been resolved.
Description	Tracking ID
Previously, in a text or character field, certain valid characters, for example the € symbol, were removed from the value that was saved to the database. This issue has been resolved.	DE209625
Previously, if you configured a field to use a picklist with numeric values, and your user culture used a comma as the decimal separator, when you edited the records in the Bulk Data Form, fractional values were overwritten with integer values. This issue has been resolved.	DE209551
Previously, if you specified canEdit=true in the !datasheet- dialog URL, the datasheet was displayed in read-only mode. This issue has been resolved.	DE209281
Previously, if picklist field behavior contained input as date field from family, an error appeared when the datasheet was loading. This issue has been resolved.	DE208769
Previously, when you opened the Bulk Data Form from Global Search, Advanced Search, or using a hyperlink, made changes, and then switched to a different APM tab: If you had unsaved changes, the changes were lost. If you added and saved new records, when you returned to the Bulk Data Form, the newly added records were no longer displayed. These issues have been resolved.	DE208319
Previously, when a record was locked for editing, you could not copy the text in the fields. This issue has been resolved.	DE208307
Previously, in a date field that was configured to use the short date format using a field behavior, a time picker was displayed in the date selection window, which resulted in the field value set to the wrong value. This issue has been resolved. Now, in this scenario, the time picker is not displayed in the date selection window.	DE207248
Previously, if custom behavior and a non-standard format were set for a date field, an error occurred when you accessed the corresponding record using Record Manager. This issue has been resolved.	DE205005
Previously, when you used the Microsoft Edge browser, the drop-down selection list in a multi-value field closed unexpectedly when you selected a value, resulting in incorrect values saved to the field. This issue has been resolved.	DE201466

Table 2. Enhancements and New Features
The following enhancements and new features have been added.
Description	Tracking ID
To support planned new features and enable improved performance, you can now choose to store the file (for example, an image or a word document) associated with a Reference Document in a Cloud data store outside the Essentials database. To facilitate this enhancement, a new option, Reference Document Cloud Storage has been added in the Operations Manager page under Admin.	US601761
To enhance usability, you can now control the page layout when printing from a Bulk Data Form. To facilitate this enhancement, the Formatted Print button and the Print Options item in the More Options menu have been added in the Bulk Data Form.	US597088
To enhance usability, you can now upload reference documents to be stored in APM in bulk. To facilitate this enhancement, a new option, Reference Document Bulk Upload, has been added in the Operations Manager page under Admin.	US584339
To enhance usability, performance has been significantly improved when you open a record with a large number of related records.	US581478
To enhance usability, you can now modify the state of records in bulk. To facilitate this enhancement, when you use the Bulk Data Form to access records of a family for which state management is enabled, the state management control appears when you select multiple records that are in the same state.	US571654
When you use the Table Settings window to modify the settings for a Bulk Data Form or Master Detail datasheet, the following column settings are retained as a user preference for that form: Freeze columns Show or hide columns Change the order of columns Sort columns Note: If, however, you change the order of columns using the drag-and-drop method, the changes are not saved as a user preference.

Table 3. Resolved Issues
The following issues, which existed in one or more previous versions, have been resolved.
Description	Tracking ID
Previously, if the entity ID of a record was too long to display in the Record Explorer window, the displayed entity ID was excessively truncated. This issue has been resolved. Now, the truncated display format of the entity ID shows more characters and is allowed to wrap at lower display resolutions.	DE205445
Previously, in Bulk Data Form, when you selected a field with a drop-down list, the cursor was placed at the end of the entry. This issue has been resolved. Now, the entire content is selected, which allows you to select a different option from the drop-down list by typing the first few letters of the desired value.	DE203001
Previously, you could not select multiple Alert IDs in a Strategy Macro Schedule option, even though all alerts associated with the schedule were executed successfully. This issue has been resolved.	DE202964
Previously, if you attempted to open a record in Record Manager using a hyperlink where the Family ID was entered in lowercase letters, an error occurred. This issue has been resolved.	DE166954
