Millennium 2015.1 Resolved Issues
Resolved Issues
The correction items describe system behavior as it existed BEFORE the installation of this release.
Unless otherwise noted, changes and corrections apply to both database platforms.
Advanced Data Examiner and ADE Import Tool
Issue # | Function | Description |
---|---|---|
M16347 | ADE Auto Update | The ADE Auto Update process would previously fail if the import source (ADE Source Lookup) contained a space. The Auto Update process has been revised to handle spaces in the ADE Source Lookup value. |
M16545 | ADE Soft Edit Access | When a user with Soft Edit access to the Data Examiner updated employment records, the update was not assigned to an ADE Import Source, preventing the ADE update. This condition has been corrected so that users with Soft Edit access can update employment records in the Data Examiner. |
M16360 | ADE Post Payment-Credit Card | The Credit Card type was not carried forward to the Credit Card form from the Post Payment form when posting pledge payments. The Credit Card type value (cctype) is now saved and populates the Credit Card form when posting pledge payments. |
M16703 | ADE Import Tool | An error occurred if the ADE Import Tool was launched from a workstation when the website was using SSL. The product has been updated to support the connection between the SSL site and the workstation without issuing an error. |
M17272 | ADE Import Tool | An apostrophe in the Event name caused an error on import. This condition is handled by the ADE Import Tool in version 2015.1. |
M17353 | ADE Import Tool | Under rare conditions, a system error could occur when selecting an existing map to edit. This has been corrected in version 2015.1. |
M17574 | ADE Setup | When setting up System Defaults, the Data Examiner System Default view was disabled for Non-Constituent relationships. You can now define a Non-Constituent relationship default in the ADE. |

M16997 | User Options | The system now saves the Clipboard Setup sort order appropriately. |
M17044 | Home Page | Adding an item to the Home Page display occasionally caused an unselected item to be added as well. This issue has been corrected in version 2015.1. |
Profiles
Issue # | Category | Description |
---|---|---|
M15672 | Wealth Engine | This list of Wealth Engine users now sorts alphabetically. |
M16547 | Biographical Profile | In some cases non-English alphabetic characters did not resolve correctly. An html decoder has been added to support a wider range of characters for text fields. |

M17045 | Giving Detail | Clicking Finish or Cancel from the Giving Detail view returned you to the first gift by the Constituent. Now you are returned to the transaction you were viewing when you selected the Detail view. |
M17057 | Giving Detail |
Giving Detail view did not refresh when viewing Giving Detail for one donor and then moving to another donor using Profiles > Next Search menu. This has been corrected in version 2015.1. |
M17058 | Giving Detail | The Relations view does not refresh when viewing the gift’s Giving Detail for a donor if the user moves to the Biographical > Relations menu. This has been corrected in version 2015.1. |
M17059 | Giving Detail | The Address view does not refresh when viewing the gift’s Giving Detail for a donor, if the user jumps to Biographical > Address menu. The Address view generates an error “Couldn't open Address File. Please contact the system administrator.” This has been corrected in version 2015.1. |
M17060 | Giving Detail | The Basic Data view does not refresh when viewing the gift’s Giving Detail for a donor, if the user jumps to Biographical > Basic Data menu. The Basic Data view is empty. This has been corrected in version 2015.1. |
M17465 | Biographical Data | Copying text that contained bullets into a field showed the bullets as an encoded character (%95). Bullets will be correctly displayed in version 2015.1. |
M17473 | Giving Detail | On the Transaction Detail form for a pledge, the Add, Delete, and Finish buttons appeared enabled on the Payment Schedule view for read-only users. These buttons were not active, and read-only users could not process transactions. The display has been updated to disable the buttons for read-only users in version 2015.1. |
M17477 | Relationships | The system retained a relationship flag by the Constituent's name without regard to the expiration date for the relationship. The flag should only be visible if the Constituent has active relationships in the system. This behavior has been corrected in version 2015.1. |
Mobile access to Millennium
Issue # | Function | Description |
---|---|---|
M16717 | Insert Correspondence | You can now create correspondences for a constituent using a mobile device. Previously, attempting to search for and insert a constituent name into correspondence failed from a mobile device. |
Reporting
Issue # | Function | Description |
---|---|---|
System Wide
Issue # | Function | Description |
---|---|---|
M16783 | Hotkey | A system issue that caused Millennium to crash when the hotkey "V" was used has been corrected. |
M17041 | Improper Page Access | An attempt to access a Millennium page through the browser address bar without logging in could cause the web server to crash. This condition is now handled with an appropriate system message that prompts the user to log in. |
Tools
Issue # | Function | Description |
---|---|---|
M15592 | Profile Lookup Tables—Attribute Types | Removing the Jobs table link made the Education table unavailable for linking from an Attribute type. This condition has been corrected, and the Education table remains available when you remove the Jobs table link. |
M16183 | WealthEngine Setup | The search results lookup that was associating the Number of Properties value and the Financial demographics settings has been corrected. The correct values for Financial demographics are now returned. |
M16379 | System Option | Inserting a duplicate preferred name now produces a warning from both | and options. The warning was not produced when inserted via system default.
M16491 | User Security | The system previously disabled the Change Password option for any user ID beginning with the characters sa. This prevented users from changing the system administrator password, but also affected any other user whose user ID began with those characters. The product has been updated so that only the SQL system administrator ID shipped with the product is restricted from the password change utility. |
M16853 | System Upkeep | If the default queue name contained spaces, the report run-time options would default to HTML instead of PDF. This condition has been corrected in version 2015.1. |
M17077 | User Security | In earlier versions, if a special character was entered in the comment field of the user profile (Tools>System Upkeep>User Security>Select a User), and then the profile was saved, the save process would not save the comment and would remove the associated Constituent ID. This has been corrected in version 2015.1. |
M17266 | Tax Receipting | On entering a new tax receipt, if you clear the form and try to type in start and end date, a SQL error was issued. This form has been updated to prevent the error. |
M17317 | System Options | Updates to the setting Display Death with Basic Data were not retained in the Oracle database. This occurred because of the way Oracle was attempting to write the changed value. The system has been updated to correct this issue in version 2015.1. |
M17569 | Custom Display Designer | An error could occur when Millennium and Millennium Drive were running on the same IIS server. The system generated the "MillScreenCustomizer" Run-time error '5': “Invalid procedure call or argument" when the Custom Display Designer was accessed. This occurred because the Custom Display Designer requires access to Port 80, and Millennium Drive also uses Port 80. The compatibility between Millennium and Millennium Drive on the same IIS server has been improved in version 2015.1, and this error should no longer occur. |
