This will minimize the system downtime. However, you still have the option to perform the standard upgrade that involves upgrading both Database and Plant Applications Server with system downtime.
• Install Message Bridge as part of the Plant Applications Server. After installation you can observe the Message Bridge service running along with other Plant Applications services. Also, you can create the RabbitMQ user as part of the Plant Applications installation.

This feature is applicable to Unit Operations and Work Queue.

Previously for a specific operation, if all the lots in a work order were on hold, it was indicated with a clocked on status. This has been aligned to show the on hold status for such an operation.

A static message label is also introduced on the Open page to inform on the number of displayed activities from the total number of open activities available in the database. This message is shown only when the displayed open activity records are less than the records available in the database.

The number of records to display on the Open page is configured in the maxRecordsToFetch property in the app.properties.json file. If you have installed Plant Applications Web Client using Docker, this file is located in the Plant Applications installation folder/PlantApplicationsDocker/plantapps-universal-client/activities folder. Otherwise, this file is located in the <Plant Applications installation folder>\PlantApplicationsWebClient\NodeUIApp\activities-app\assets folder.

In Plant Applications Administrator, an autolog variable can be configured for an electronic signature at two levels:

• Level-1: Requires only the Performer signature.The performer that initiated the action must electronically sign for that action.
• Level-2: Requires both the Performer and a Verifier signature. The performer that initiated the action must electronically sign for that action and the verifier must electronically sign to validate the action. The action is not committed until both signatures are entered.

• Save your favorite trends to a folder
• Mark a saved trend as default trend which then appears when you login to the Plant Applications Web Client and access the Analysis application for the first time.

• Display the list of process orders grouped based on the multiple execution paths (configured in Plant Applications Administrator) or unbound path in a tabular format.
