When adding validations in Objects, many times it is necessary to validate dates against the current date.

Key Features:

1. Dynamic Date Comparison - Users can compare a selected date with the current system date. This empowers you to create rules that trigger based on the relationship between a date field and the present date.

2. Versatile Date Range Checks - Validate whether a date falls within a specified date range relative to the present date.

Users can add validations to verify field values that, when used in combination, are unique.

Limitation: numeric fields such as Integer, Long Integer, Decimal, Precision Decimal will be stored as null.

Validate relationships to prevent duplicate names in child objects.

This development introduces the ability for the user to set the file size at asset library’s level. This settings will override the already existing one at System level when the latter is bigger. As a general rule, when both are set the lowest applies.

To reduce the maintenance costs of providing a full document’s preview, the following changes are being introduced:

• “No preview available” state when the file size exceeds the preview size limit.

• Merge “File Entries” and “PDF Preview” settings under “File Preview Limits”

• Rename "File Size Limits" to "File Upload Limits" with a reviewed and more understandable Description copy

• The user is being informed that the generated preview may not correspond to the entire document

We refactored the way Liferay scripts were managed, so admins can define stricter policies like:

script-src '[$NONCE$]'; script-src-attr 'unsafe-inline';

Limitations: If a policy like the one above is configured, the parts of the product that uses a rich-text editor will not work correctly. Analyze your scenario to identify how strict your policy can be in order to make the solution work.

Now users can configure the values for the following properties from settings (system, instance or site settings):

• session.timeout.auto.extend
• session.timeout.auto.extend.offset

When the Upgrade Report is enabled, the output directory of the report can be configured with the new portal property upgrade.report.dir

If this property is not set, the upgrade report can be found in the default directory:

• portal-tools-db-upgrade-client/reports for the upgrade tool.
• {liferay-home}/reports if upgrade was executed on startup.

With this feature we extending the SCIM implementation with User Group un/provisioning as well with the User Group membership un/provisioning.

Previously customers would add captchas using a TagLib. But this is no longer useful since customers are not deploying JSPs. The Captcha API enables this functionality to be used in arbitrary contexts.

Sell and manage SKUs by adding different Units of Measure to the SKU. Configure the Unit of Measure to optionally allow for sales in decimal quantities. Units of Measure have their own pricing and inventory. Once configured, they add to the shopping experience of the buyer who can now purchase SKUs in different Units of measure.

Allow clients to request a quote for individual products instead of setting a price. Includes the option to use a Price List or a Promotion to price the Product as "Price on Application". There is also the ability to activate the "Request a quote" option on a fully priced cart for a particular channel.

New Account Type of Supplier. A Supplier can be linked to a catalog and to a channel to allow the supplier manage their own products, price lists, promotions, catalogs, discounts, inventory and channel in order to be able to fulfill orders for their own products.

Used in Conjunction with Supplier Accounts, this object's rule, once configured, splits Commerce Orders automatically by the Catalog that each Product belongs to. The Channel on the Order is updated to be the channel linked to the same supplier that the catalog is linked to. The order splitting rule effectively allows the supplier to manage orders for their own specific products.

Now, users are able to visually understand the structure of their objects and how they connect with each other to result in the platform model.

Now, users are able to fill out object entries in parts, allowing them to save data as draft and return at their convenience to complete.

A new set of tooling is being provided, to centralize all the different tooling into a single solution, therefore, stand-alone tooling like the Fragments Toolkit does not make sense anymore as a stand-alone tool. In addition to that, the fragment toolkit needed upgrades to prevent some vulnerabilities that could happen. Therefore, we recommend adopting other solutions for now. The Fragment Toolkit will remain available for a minimum of one year.
