New Enhancements
Risks
Added ability to export Risks. This option is available in the Risks grid in the More Actions drop-down menu.
With this functionality, the user can export risks with all their attributes. The list is filtered based on the context menu. For now, only the export functionality was introduced, so users won’t be able to import the file back to the application.

The menu layout was restructured to provide a cleaner look and feel. The limit for column selection was also raised to allow for up to 6 columns displayed at once.

- Fixed an issue in which an error would occur when creating a new task from the Sprint Board view.
Time Tracking
- Aligned how changes through API and UI work for Time Tracking settings. Now when disabling Time Tracking using API, all Time Tracking user’s settings are erased, same as when disabling Time Tracking from UI.
Program Room
- Addressed an issue with Program Room not aligned in Internet Explorer. Now Program Room in IE is displayed similar to other browsers, widgets aren’t overlapped by scrolls.
Portfolio Room

Work Items
- Addressed the issue with not allowing users to assign a Defect to a Story with over 200 characters in the title.
- Fixed an issue with incorrect focus when pasting large text to the work item's Description field.
- Fixed an issue with the State column for accepted Stories. Now it shows the Accepted state instead of the latest state the Story had before it was accepted.
- Fixed an issue with the Requirement Hierarchy not showing Features. Now when accessing the Requirement Hierarchy from a Theme, it shows all Epics and all Features under that Epic.
Audit Logs
- Fixed an issue with Test Cases Audit Log not capturing changes to custom fields. Now updates to custom fields values are written to Audit Log. The same fix was applied to Features.
- Fixed an issue with Risks Audit Log not capturing changes to the Notify field.
Mass Move
- Changed the Program drop-down menu on the Mass Move page to be mandatory. With these changes, a user will not be able to assign work items to a Program and a PI that aren’t tied together that was resulting in broken configurations and data loss.
Reports
- Fixed an issue on the Capacity Planning report with the Unassigned hours not included in Total Loaded and Total Remaining hours.

- Aligned the Updated Release Charts link in the Release grid to bring the users to the PI reports section instead of the All Reports view.

- Addressed an issue with incorrect sorting by priority in the Ideation grid.
- Removed deleted Features from the list of items that can be added to a Link Map.
