Known Issue Fixes
Work Order Merge Field Fix - Fixed an issue where the cunitid merge field was not populating correctly in Work Order templates. The field now displays the correct Unit ID as expected.
Deposits Report Fix - Resolved an issue where exporting the Deposits report with filters applied triggered a system error. Users can now export the report without issues after applying filters.
Dropdown Field Display - Resolved an issue where certain dropdown fields occasionally showed internal ID values instead of readable labels. Affected areas included Subunits, Sales Reps, and Source fields on Reservations.
Resident Lease Expiration Report - Updated the Excel export to display user-friendly column headers instead of internal database field names for improved clarity.
Transfer Reservation - Fixed an issue where transfer reservations incorrectly created duplicate rent line items on tenant ledgers, leading to invoice discrepancies. Now, ledger entries remain accurate and consistent when processing transfers.
API - Update Corporate Client - Fixed an API bug where updating a single corporate client unintentionally updated fields for all clients. Now, only the targeted corporate client’s fields are updated as intended.
Multi-Select Document Generation - Fixed an issue where only the first document was generated and sent when selecting multiple documents for a packet. Now, all selected documents are generated and emailed together as intended.
Custom X Reports - Duplicated Lines - Resolved an issue where some custom X reports showed duplicate unit IDs, resulting in multiple lines for the same reservation. Reports now display accurate, single-line entries per reservation, and Resident Ledger Criteria filters only appear when relevant.
Other Charge Invalid Dates - Fixed an issue that prevented users from entering valid dates for Other charges due to an incorrect “dates are invalid” error. Users can now set dates for charges without any problems.
Custom Field Type “spncb” - Resolved an issue where custom fields with the control type spncb were not appearing in Orion. These fields now display correctly as numeric textboxes with spinners.
Reporting Security Profile - Fixed an issue where users with the correct AP Security Profile were unable to run the “Rent to Property” report due to an “Access is Denied” error. Users can now access the report as expected.
Bank Account Base Currency - Fixed an issue where users could not select a currency other than the base when creating a Bank Record in the Chart of Accounts. Now, any currency can be selected and saved as expected.
Schedule Board Leads Management - Resolved an issue where booking a lead from the Leads Management screen didn’t confirm the booking—leads now move correctly from the schedule to confirmed status.
Reservation Date Entry - Fixed an issue where users couldn’t type dates in MM/DD/YYYY format when creating or editing reservations—now you can enter dates directly without needing to use the calendar icon.
Tenant Main Ledger Rent Line - Added a safeguard to prevent deletion of the system rent line on the Tenant Main Ledger, resolving errors and issues during invoicing.
