Bug Fixes¶
Right-click menu unavailable on module tabs after switching users¶
Issue. After switching to a different user through the Log in as User dropdown on the main screen, right-clicking a module tab header had no effect. The right-click menu on individual reporting tabs continued to work, but the module-level right-click was unresponsive until the application was restarted. The next user switch would cause the issue to return.
Resolution. The cause has been identified and corrected. The right-click menu on module tabs now works reliably immediately after a user switch, and continues to work across subsequent switches without requiring a restart. Right-click behavior on individual reporting tabs is unchanged.
Additional safeguard. As part of this fix, the module right-click menu now rebuilds itself automatically if its contents are ever cleared by an unforeseen condition, ensuring it always opens with all five options populated.
Incorrect fiscal date labels on custom fiscal calendars¶
Issue. For companies using a custom fiscal calendar — where each period's start and end dates are defined explicitly and may not align with calendar months, such as 4-4-5 retail calendars or periods beginning mid-month — the Fiscal Month, Fiscal Quarter, and Fiscal Year columns could assign dates near a period boundary to the wrong period. The columns assumed periods aligned with calendar months instead of using the dates defined in the calendar.
Resolution. The columns now determine each period directly from the start and end dates defined in your fiscal calendar, so every date falls in exactly the period your calendar says it should — including 4-4-5 layouts and periods of uneven length. Dates outside any defined period are left blank rather than mislabeled.
Stray "Connection Successful" message during first-time setup¶
Issue. On a first launch with no saved connection settings, PULSE Dashboard correctly prompts for the server and database information. However, after the connection was established successfully, a popup reading "Connection successful." appeared in the style of an error dialog, suggesting something had gone wrong when it had not.
Resolution. The first-time setup flow has been reworked. When the connection succeeds, PULSE Dashboard now proceeds directly into loading with no extraneous message. If the connection attempt fails, the setup prompt reappears so the information can be corrected and retried without restarting the program.
Unresponsive filter options in the quick links menu¶
Issue. In the right-click quick links menu on report cells, the options under the filter section — Filter Editor..., Just Me, and Everyone — did not respond when clicked. The rest of the quick links menu worked normally.
Resolution. All three filter options now respond when clicked and behave consistently with the rest of the quick links menu, including appearing in the recently used position after use.
Audible beep and error when entering administrator mode¶
Issue. Pressing Enter to confirm the password when entering administrator mode triggered the Windows error sound even though the password was accepted. In some situations, entering administrator mode could also produce an error message.
Resolution. The Enter key is now handled cleanly by the password prompt, and the underlying error has been corrected. Entering administrator mode is silent and reliable.
Tab row shifting when right-clicking a reporting tab¶
Issue. Right-clicking a reporting tab header could cause the tab row to visibly shift or reflow just before the context menu opened. In addition, the context menu would not open on the last remaining reporting tab.
Resolution. Right-clicking a reporting tab no longer causes any visible movement of the tab row, and the context menu now opens consistently on every reporting tab, including the last one.
