| BUG | Capital with 0 duration is skipped when exporting to Enersight to avoid an import error. (113862) |
| RTx / Jobs | |
| BUG | Fixed issue where "task due for you" type email notifications would be sent to an assigned user even though the task was already automatically completed by the system. We all need fewer emails, and this gets rid of some unnecessary ones.(116369) |
| BUG | Fixed minor issue in help text for Workflow data loaders that was incorrectly describing how to add a text section. (118348) |

| NEW | Automated pruning of log files in the logs folder. Aucerna Execute now keeps only the 500 most recent log files of each type (each synchronization and integration is a unique log type) stored in the logs folder. This prevents issues where frequent running synchronizations would exhaust system resources. (115361) |
| NEW | Fixed issue in the "either" function in the calculated fields where an empty string was treated as a value rather than a null-value as intended. (115829) |
| NEW | Added support for list field filtering within Custom Tables. (120636) |
| BUG | Fixed issue where add rows from Excel would have inconsistent results when trying to import a row with an error. The system now skips adding rows with errors to give an opportunity to resolve the error and load the whole row. (118494) |
| BUG | Resolved issue where filtering in attachment fields in a custom table would fail to return any results. (119756) |

| BUG | When manually scheduling a Project (using "Add Project to Schedule"), any newly created schedule activities would be locked until the next service restart. (115367) |
| BUG | When manually scheduling a Project (using "Add Project to Schedule"), users can now see more than 100 projects. (115715) |
| NEW | Ability to move scheduled projects between pads. (101692) |
| Budgeting and Forecasting | |
| BUG | Improvements to error reporting when removing / changing project activities that are in-use to link AFEs to Projects. Resolved issue where AFE Allocation report would fail to run if there were incorrectly mapped AFEs. (111345) |
| BUG | Fixed issues where "-" would sometimes show in historical / unused months in capital forecasts. (112105 / 114811) |
| BUG | Prevent the deletion of Project Activities that are mapped to AFE Accounts. (112198) |
| BUG | Fixed "Update Forecasts" screen so that switching reports automatically selects the first project in the list, rather than trying to re-select the first project from the first list. (112380) |
| BUG | Fixed issue where inactive fields were incorrectly showing on the Project's Capital Summary grid. (113279) |
| BUG | Fixed issue where update from 2019 to 2020 wouldn't copy Project History. (113321) |
| RTx / Jobs | |
| BUG | Changing a workflow task from a sub-workflow task, to a "normal" task would fail to be propagated to in-flight workflow instances. (113861) |

| NEW | Added ability (in user.config) to hide RTx approval tab. (115018) |

| BUG | Resolved issue where calling the "OpenAFE" API would fail with an exception when trying to load a deleted AFE, rather than returning a nice error message. (113620) |
| BUG | Fixed problem where exporting Details to Excel from the AFE's Budget tab would create an Excel sheet that couldn't be opened in Excel. (114740) |
| BUG | Fixed problem where APPROVED_NET_ESTIMATE column would incorrectly report 0 on approved AFEs. (114803) |
| System | |
| BUG | Fixed online help (F1) to point to the 2020 documentation, rather than the old 2019 document. Ooops! (112100) |
| BUG | Properly enforce column size limits when adding new fields from the bulk field importer. These extraordinarily lengthy field labels were causing database upgrade issues. (112377) |
| BUG | Fixed issue where a trailing slash would break an OData URL. (112789) |
| BUG | Fixed issue with database upgrade incorrectly marking PROJECTS.ENERSIGHT_PROPID field as part of the primary key (and thus making it not nullable). (113263) |
| BUG | Fixed an issue where the "Users in Group" block would get stuck on the screen in environments with no defined user groups. (113621) |
| BUG | Fixed issue where including a dollar sign in a report title would prevent the report from being exported to Excel. (113687) |
