Construct PM 1.0.64 Release Notes

Enterprise Customers: To run build 1.0.64, it’s critical that your installed web services/APIs are on version 1.0.123369 or later. These APIs are included in patch 16 HF 04 or later, however some clients may have received the required files via HFs on patch 15-2. If you are running an older version of the web services, new features may be inaccessible or malfunction. We will provide "best effort" support to customers running older web services versions - but cannot guarantee resolution/delivery timelines outside currently supported system-patch levels.

Cloud Customers: No action is required on your part.

Infrastructure Enhance project data syncing on Home screen. Updated the app's Home screen on mobile devices to capture detailed background download activity. When new data is streaming to the mobile device, the app will display a blue pill that states "Updating Project". This will replace the grey banner at the top of the Home screen. Once the app is synched, it will display "Up To Date" in a green pill with a timestamp of the last time it was updated. If there are any sync issues, there will be a red pill that displays "X Update Issues". Users can click "Details" to view all the different modules that were synched on the project. A green checkmark means that the module was successfully updated. If there is a red exclamation mark next to a module, a user can click on that icon to view the records that did not successfully sync to the device. Also, when working offline, users will see a grey "Offline" pill that displays "Uploads Pending" if the user created records while offline. After going into "Details", there will also be a badge next to each module that displays the number of records pending to be synched once the user is back online. (CF-20814)
