Release Notes 11.105.0

Livestock: The Livestock Gross Margin (LGM) Application has been updated in the following ways for all years:

Livestock: For all years, the Livestock Assignment of Indemnity (AOI) form and Livestock AOI Confirmation form have been updated in the following ways:

AOI Form:

AOI Confirm Form:

For the 2022 and prior RYs, validations are in place where, upon save of LRP and LGM coverages to ensure that duplicate coverages are not created, the System checks for duplicate coverages by State/County/Commodity/Type/Practice. With this ticket, these validations were adjusted for the 2023+ RYs to only look at State/County/Plan/Commodity (type and practice were removed since they're now selected at the detail line level). This logic will check against all policies for the grower to find duplicates, so Plan was added to the criteria. Existing logic will remain in place for 2022 and prior RYs.

While testing a script to populate the Billing and Termination Dates on premium lines, an issue was found where a few LRP detail lines did not have a Practice selected. It was found that there was old logic in place that would ignore the practice code if NULL or empty and return the effective dates that matched the RY, State, Commodity, and Type (not Practice).

With this ticket, the System has been updated to require the selection of Type and Practice PRIOR to the Effective Dates loading when creating new premium lines. If no Effective Dates load in the picklist, the user will know that they are missing required information. This change only applies to LRP as DRP already has hard stops on the UI to force the user to enter required values and LGM will not populate Effective Dates without Types/Practices first being selected. Additionally, if only one valid type/practice is in the dropdown, logic has been added to preselect the Type and/or Practice value in the dropdowns for LRP and LGM.

The 2023 RY Holiday ICE table has been revised to add new columns to account for the different Livestock Plans and also to denote if it is a government holiday or a market holiday. There will be 4 holidays that will have some Livestock Plans with sales while others will not. The LRP, LGM, and DRP flags are different for Columbus Day, Good Friday, Juneteenth, and Veterans Day. This ticket updated the System's current RMA Holiday logic to account for these new fields.

During internal testing, a display issue was identified where, when a user deleted a detail line from the Detail Lines tab of a Livestock policy and then went to the Coverage tab, the Coverage tab still showed the detail line counts prior the line being deleted. The System was updated to check for and refresh the Coverages grid on successful delete of premium lines so that the detail lines count display reflects the new total.

The export fields menu has been updated to allow users to select to export the Adjuster Layer and RLU layer if the user has access to view those layers. To do this, in Mapping, go to Tools > Export Fields and verify that the Grower Field, Adjuster Layer, and RLU Layer options are available in the Select the Layer to Export From field. Choose which layer to export and make other export selections as needed. Export all or the selected fields. The objects are exported to a zip file that can then be imported as needed.

Forage Production: With TFS #135120, the System was updated to, upon Mark Complete, trigger a new suspension for the 2023+ RYs for Forage Production (Plan 90) policies. Upon Mark Complete, the suspension, "Year of Establishment Verification Required for Unit XXXX-XXXX. Underwriter Review Required." now triggers when the following criteria exist:

In addition, a suspension verification checkbox named, "Year of Establishment Verified", was added to the View and Maintain Coverage pages for the Forage Production suspension. This checkbox is only visible to users with the correct permissions. Also, the checkbox only displays once the suspension has been triggered in the policy. If this checkbox is selected, the suspension will no longer trigger on subsequent Mark Completes.

With this current ticket, NO code changes were made; this is a testing-only ticket to verify the functionality implemented with TFS #135120.

APH: Over the course of the 2022 RY APH processing season, several issues were found to have caused crop years to be duplicated within APH databases (See TFS #135135 from the 11.060 Release, TFS #136124 from the 11.070 Release, and TFS #138840 from the 11.105 release for additional background and scenarios in addition to the scenario resolved with this ticket (138748)).

The issue resolved with this ticket had to do with when a unit number was changed on a detail line that had a system-generated child line attached. The System was updated to no longer display a warning message when a unit number is changed for a line with system-generated child lines only (CH, CL, ECO, HIP, SCO, SE, & PACE). It will not display when APHs are shared between related lines for STAX or Margin Protection either. Instead, the System will behave as if the user selected the 2nd option in the Warning dialog and always retain the associated APH link between both lines in these scenarios.

APH: A couple of bugs causing duplicate Crop Years within APH databases were found and fixed with the following tickets:

Since those bugs were fixed, we've been monitoring APH databases in the 2022 RY to make sure no other instances of this scenario were occurring. Unfortunately, another bug was found that was causing the same duplicate crop year issue. It was happening when a new APH was added from within Fast Edit AR and the same detail line was duplicated within the same Fast Edit session.

NOTE: The duplication was not occurring if the detail line was duplicated first and then a new APH was added.

The System has been updated and will no longer duplicate crop years within an APH database when a new APH is added from within Fast Edit AR and, the same detail line is duplicated within the same Fast Edit AR session.
