Change Description: When attempting to delete a Governance Status, user will be shown usage count of this status across Organisations, Substances, and Referentials


SPRFY-560: Data Governance Workflow Trigger

Currently, the Data Governance workflow is triggered if during a synchronisation the following data fields for a record are changed : Modified Data, Version, and Status.

New option will be introduced to also consider other data fields for each data domain to allow admins greater control over when Data Governance is required for a given domain.

List of fields per domain:​

Organisations: ORG ID, LOC ID, Organisation Name, Address (Any field), Organisation Identifiers, Location Identifiers​​

SPRFY-833: Mapping: ID Should Take Priority, Even If Merged (Imported Mappings Only)

Version 23.1.2.1

Tentative Release Dates:
Validation Environment: Sunday, 14 April 2024
Production Environment: Sunday, 28 April 2024

Bug Fixes

SPRFY-1038: Veeva Vault Authentication Issue

Reported Issue: Veeva Vault Authentication Issue

Solution: SPORIFY blocked login for Veeva Vault due to a side effect of Veeva authentication defaulting. As SPORIFY received a response from a Vault that was not specified, the login was blocked. We consulted Veeva and they recommended that this was due to Authentication Defaulting and that to resolve this that we should include the VaultDNS parameter to specify which Vault will generate a session with the subdomain specified only. Going forward, if the VaultDNS is valid Authentication will progress, however if the VaultDNS is invalid, SPORIFY will report Authentication Issue to the end user.
