Staff user - Review and print my document: When working with a letter template, the following occurs:

  • Clicking on the “Save & Print” button will generate the letter in a pdf file and save the file in the user’s local download folder, as well as in the Files section of the record from which the letter was generated.
  • The generated pdf file is downloaded via the user’s current internet browser.

Note: Configuration assistance is required.

  • Click on the “Refresh Fields” button to refresh the data mapping list. This is used in the case when a new merge field is added on the main panel after the section is loaded.

Note: Configuration assistance is required.

Comms – Letter Template

System Admin - View letter template editor as I create or open an existing letter template record: The letter template entity has been enhanced with a new interface for configuring and viewing new and existing letter template records. Also referred to as the "letter template engine" or “enhanced letter generator”, it provides the capabilities to include a letterhead, footer, page number, background images, and more document formatting features similar to Microsoft Word. This engine also supports more data points for a letter document.

System administrators can configure letters that include information from multiple entities. For example, a letter to show license information (primary entity), profile information (parent entity), and License history (child entity).

Note: Configuration assistance is required.

Comms – Letter Template

Need billable (tc_billable) attribute on status entities: A new “Billable” (Yes/No/Unset) radio button has been added to the following entities to provide the option of marking a status as “billable” or “not billable”:

  • Authorization Status (reg_authorizationstatus)
  • Business License Status (reg_permitstatus)
  • Education Provider Status (lrn_educationproviderstatus)
  • Facility Status (reg_facilitystatus)
  • License Status (reg_registrationstatus)

Multiple Locations

File limit error message: The single file size upload limit to the system is 300MB in order to avoid the server timeout. File size will be checked by the system before a file is parsed. This will prevent server timeouts for files larger than 300MB.
 

Also, when attempting to upload a file that exceeds the file size limit, an error message appears similar to the following: “The attachment size exceeds the allowable limit: 300MB”.

Multiple Locations

Fix of Security Vulnerability on Containment of Ability to Brute-Force Logins: Additional security features have been implemented to minimize “brute-force login” attacks on the workbench. Now, system admins can configure the number of failed login attempts allowed before a user, based on username, is locked out of the system. The “Time Out Duration” at which the user is locked out of the system due to failed login attempts can be set. Once a user is locked out of the system, an email is automatically sent to notify the user that the username has been locked. The user will then need to wait the allotted time until the username is unlocked in order to be able to log back into the system. System admins will have the ability to reset the password to unlock a locked-out user.

To facilitate the removal of these two columns, in the Business Information section of the Portal Configuration entity (port_site), the “Disable Parent Business” (Yes/No/Unset) radio button must be set to “Yes”.

Note: Configuration assistance is required.

Business Licensing

Business Entity Registration ending in odd years: The license expiration date of a business or facility can now be calculated with the addition of two new radio buttons in the Business License Type entity (reg_permitclass) and Facility Type entity (reg_facilitytype):

  • License Period ends in even year (Yes/No/Unset) – If a license period is greater than a year, then this can be used to ensure the expiration date generated always matches the even year requirement. Select “Yes” to indicate that the license period ends in an even year. It does not end in an even year when set to “No”.

    For example, if the license period is 2 years, and licenses can only end in even years and I submit an application for a license in the year 2023, and it gets approved, then initially, the system adds the period of 2 years, so that it would expire in 2025. However, because of the requirement of even years only, it will subtract a year to satisfy the requirement, resulting in the license expiring in 2024. When I go to renew the license in 2024, it will now be the full period of 2 years expiring in 2026.

  • License Period ends in odd year (Yes/No/Unset) – If a license period is greater than a year, then this can be used to ensure the expiration date generated always matches the odd year requirement. Select “Yes” to indicate that the license period ends in an odd year. It does not end in an odd year when set to “No”. For example, If the license expiration is calculated as January 2025 and the value for the “License Period ends in odd year” is set to “No”, then the license cannot expire in 2025. Instead, 1 year will be subtracted from the end date, setting the new license expiry to January 2024.

Note: If a license period is yearly, then this configuration should never be enabled, as a yearly period would always require alternating even and odd years.

Note: Configuration assistance is required.

Business Licensing

Adding sponsor approved / rejected status for sponsor renewal workflow: The sponsor approval workflow has been modified to include the “approved” and “rejected” statuses to provide a business with the ability to mark submitted sponsor renewal applications as either “approved” or “rejected”.

Note: The invoice is currently still generated when a sponsored renewal application is submitted to the business.

Note: Configuration assistance is required.

Individual license - reinstatement config - ability to specify duration in months: The Individual license reinstatement process has been modified to support configuring the duration in days and months within the License Type entity.

Note: The Business Document Request Type change applies only for the fee items configured in the Document Request Fee Item entity for clients using portal Version 2.4.0 and higher.

In the portal, on the Document Request page, all the applicable fee items will be displayed, along with the total of all fee items as the final payment amount.

Note: Configuration assistance is required.

Need to add Business Address to Business Register: In the public registry, the business address column and information are now available in the custom Business Register search results.

SSN/SIN input behavior - All Portal: In the portals that have the SSN or SIN field, the number is now masked. When entering each number in the SSN or SIN, the number will be briefly shown and then masked.

Initially, when entering the SSN or SIN, there will be two SSN or SIN fields to enter the number. The second field is used to re-enter the SSN or SIN to mitigate data entry errors and will be used to see if both fields are a match before allowing the user to save the record. Once the record is saved, only one SSN field will be displayed, and the numbers will be masked completely.

Note: After saving the SSN or SIN, if the value needs to be changed, the user will need to contact the regulator to make the change.
