Fix for deleting multiple users (ISSUE-852399, HOTFIX-9418)

core

In STEP 2026.1, deleting several users at once runs in a single transaction, so if any selected user is blocked from deletion (e.g. assigned to a workflow or BGP), the whole operation is rolled back and no users are deleted. The fix excludes blocked users from the transaction, so users with no such assignments are deleted successfully while blocked  users are left unchanged. STEP Workbench continues to report which users could not be deleted and why.

Fix for inbound integration endpoint throwing 'exclusive lock Worker' error on import (ISSUE-867513, HOTFIX-9384)

core

Running a strict inbound integration endpoint (IIEP) threw errors like 'Failed to acquire exclusive lock Worker'. These errors occurred because the worker started a new process when it finished its batch if there were more files to process, but the poller was also scheduled to start a new worker process every minute. As there were lots of files to to process, a task that often takes only a few seconds, there were new workers being created all the time. Therefore, there was a high possibility the poller and worker each created workers which then clashed as only one can run at the same time when an IIEP is set to strict. This has been fixed.

Fix for export via JDBC taking longer time (HOTFIX-9378, ISSUE-833906)

core

core

Fixed a problem that occurred when an inbound integration endpoint (IIEP) user attempted to delete background processes (BGPs) but did not have the required privileges needed to do so.

Fix for ECLASS ADVANCED dictionary import of SCS structure (ECA) creating new hierarchy (HOTFIX-9348, ISSUE-866460)

eclass

When ECLASS dictionaries from different systems were imported, the system version was being reformatted to a standard "major.minor" style. For systems like SCS, that reformatted version was incorrect and appeared that way in the exported product data. A change has been made that lets us tell the system which providers should keep their original version label exactly as delivered, instead of reformatting it. SCS (and any other system we choose) now keeps its real version (SCS1 stays SCS1) in the exported BMECat / PIES data, so the information customers receive matches the source. The behavior is configurable and turned off by default, so nothing changes for existing customers unless we explicitly opt a system in. Only the version label shown in the export is affected; the underlying data, identifiers, and import matching are unchanged. Configuration required To activate this for a system, a property must be added to the STEP server configuration (sharedconfig / config.properties): - Eclass.Harmonization.ExcludedSystemName=SCS To exclude more than one system, list them separated by commas, for example Eclass.Harmonization.ExcludedSystemName=SCS,APP. After the property is set, a server restart is needed for it to take effect. If the property is left out entirely (the default), all versions continue to be reformatted exactly as before, so no action is needed for customers who do not require this.

Fix for ECLASS BASIC export not working (ISSUE-866777, HOTFIX-9350)

core

To fix an issue with the ECLASS BASIC exporter, exported products now automatically pick up attributes inherited from the classification groups they belong to. This change lets you exclude specific kinds of classification nodes (e.g., ECLASS ADVANCED application classes) from that inheritance, so unwanted attributes no longer get pulled into the export and your output stays clean and relevant.

Fix for intermittent failures of Dynamic JMS integrations (ISSUE-866436, HOTFIX-9347)

Change to ECLASS Advanced dictionary importer (ISSUE-134113, HOTFIX-9320)

eclass

The ECLASS Advanced dictionary importer no longer adds the per-version "Data Attribute" (for example "ECLASS 14.0 Data Attribute") to the ECLASS version root and every classification below it. The attribute is now added only on Advanced Application Class classifications, so it is no longer visible on Basic or Asset Application Classes, segments, main groups, groups, or commodity classes.

Fix for dictionary importer sort issue (HOTFIX-9319, ISSUE-134569)

eclass

When importing customer-specific ECLASS ADVANCED dictionaries (e.g., SCS), the Application Classes were written to STEPXML on the root level rather than as a child of Commodity Class. Now, Application Classes are written to STEPXML as a child of Commodity Class, which is the correct way.

Fix for ECLASS ADVANCED import error (ISSUE-134477, HOTFIX-9313)

Fix for cardinality attributes on the application (HOTFIX-9226)

eclass

When importing ECLASS Advanced BMECat files, for example, 'Number of communications', (ABG899, value 3) was silently dropped because the importer skips all cardinality counter attributes (AttributeType = CONDITION_DET_Type) to avoid creating a ghost element in the ECLASS application tree, but this also meant the value never reached the SKU. This has now been fixed. In StepXMLOutputStream, after writing the standard flat attributes, count the imported polymeric blocks (for example, ABI459).

Fix for PAdb import failing with errors (ISSUE-127367)

automotive

In the import flow component used in the Autocare PAdb importer, StepXMLBuilder no longer produces the ExternallyMaintained attribute in generated STEP XML when its value is 'false' (the default). Previously, the value was always written explicitly, which caused STEP to reject re-imports of attributes that already had LOV validation, producing errors like "Cannot change ExternallyMaintained for attribute because it is LOV-validated". Since 'false' is the XSD default, omitting it is semantically equivalent for new attributes and thus avoids the conflict on re-import.

Fix for SKU_ID issue in BMEcat (HOTFIX-9190)

eclass

Fix for STEP unavailablity (ISSUE-850000, HOTFIX-9125)

core

To fix an issue that resulted in STEP being unavailable, a public configuration property has been introduced called HotfolderReceiver.MaxFileSizeInMB (which is set to 10240 (10 gigabytes) by default). This property allows admins to limit the size of the files loaded into a hotfolder. When a file exceeding the configured limit is placed in a hotfolder, a corresponding inbound integration endpoint (IIEP) background process (BGP) logs an error, skips the file, and puts it into a 'failed' directory. This is to prevent disk pressure events / disk eviction and full STEP outages caused by attempts to process the large files.

Fix for 'index out of bounds' error in IIEP (HOTFIX-9151, ISSUE-840239)

Fix for LockFreeSchemaChange issue affecting ECA migration (HOTFIX-9152, ISSUE-853937)

eclass

The ECLASS Advanced Easy Setup attributes.yml was triggering expensive LFSC (LockFreeSchemaChange) operations during ECA migration because it explicitly set 'isExternallyMaintained' on 33 attributes and added validator constraints (mask, maxLength) to 'stibo_ISO-639-2,' all of which differed from the legacy eclass-advanced state. The fix removes all 'isExternallyMaintained' declarations and the ISO-639-2 validator constraints, so the 'StepDataInstaller' leaves existing attributes untouched during migration instead of trying to change their state.

Fix for unclear import message in BMEcat (HOTFIX-9154, ISSUE-127730)

eclass

Error messages that occur during BMEcat file imports when required XML elements are missing have been improved. Previously, users saw technical messages like 'Invalid application IRDI! Product EclassName is empty', which were difficult to interpret. Now, the messages clearly identify the missing BMEcat element and the affected product. For example, a new error message might read, 'The product "CAD32P7" does not contain a valid "REFERENCE_FEATURE_SYSTEM_NAME". The product cannot be imported.'

Fix for FVALUE_DETAILS attributes not created for version-specific ETIM dictionaries (HOTFIX-9113, HOTFIX-9115, ISSUE-821154, ISSUE-839141)

bmecat

A number of updates have been made to the ETIM importer and exporter to ensure correct handling of version‑specific feature details and to prevent empty or invalid features from appearing in product exports. The handling of display sequence for FVALUE_DETAILS attributes has been corrected. The system now assigns the Display Sequence of each FVALUE_DETAILS attribute to match the Display Sequence of its corresponding feature, ensuring consistent ordering and proper alignment of version‑specific details with their corresponding base features. When importing ETIM dictionary files using the ETIM IXF format, the system now correctly creates FVALUE_DETAILS attributes whenever the “Is version specific attribute” option is selected in the Select Format step of Export Manager. These attributes are now generated with the proper ETIM version prefix (e.g. ETIM8_EF000001_FVD), ensuring accurate version tracking. Additionally, these attributes are placed under the correct attribute group (e.g. ETIM8_Value_Details_Attributes), which now receives an ID and name that correspond to the ETIM dictionary version being imported. A new configuration property, FixSpecific.ISSUE839141, has been introduced. When enabled, this property removes features with empty names or names ending in "_FVD" during export. This prevents invalid or placeholder features from being included in product exports, addressing issues related to empty or malformed feature data. Please open a ticket with Stibo Support before enabling this to ensure it is a good fit for your issue / use case.

Fix for FVALUE_DETAILS attributes not created for version-specific ETIM dictionaries (HOTFIX-9077, ISSUE-839141, HOTFIX-9082)

etim-importer, bmecat

A number of updates have been made to the ETIM importer and exporter to ensure correct handling of version‑specific feature details and to prevent empty or invalid features from appearing in product exports. The handling of display sequence for FVALUE_DETAILS attributes has been corrected. The system now assigns the Display Sequence of each FVALUE_DETAILS attribute to match the Display Sequence of its corresponding feature, ensuring consistent ordering and proper alignment of version‑specific details with their corresponding base features. When importing ETIM dictionary files using the ETIM IXF format, the system now correctly creates FVALUE_DETAILS attributes whenever the “Is version specific attribute” option is selected in the Select Format step of Export Manager. These attributes are now generated with the proper ETIM version prefix (e.g. ETIM8_EF000001_FVD), ensuring accurate version tracking. Additionally, these attributes are placed under the correct attribute group (e.g. ETIM8_Value_Details_Attributes), which now receives an ID and name that correspond to the ETIM dictionary version being imported. A new configuration property, FixSpecific.ISSUE839141, has been introduced. When enabled, this property removes features with empty names or names ending in "_FVD" during export. This prevents invalid or placeholder features from being included in product exports, addressing issues related to empty or malformed feature data. Please open a ticket with Stibo Support before enabling this to ensure it is a good fit for your issue / use case.

Fix for ECA - Invalid tag handling (HOTFIX-9074)

eclass

Summary Fixed incorrect handling of special characters (>, <) in the ECLASS Advanced import and export converters, which previously caused invalid XML tags and generated warning messages during processing. Problem The ECLASS Advanced importer (BMECat ECLASS Advanced Data Converter – CSV) produced warning messages when input data contained special characters such as > and <. These characters were not properly escaped, resulting in malformed/invalid XML tags being generated during the import process. Fix Importer (BMECat ECLASS Advanced Data Converter – CSV): Special characters (>, <) are now correctly escaped during import, eliminating the spurious warning messages. Exporter (BMECat 2005.1 Converter): Updated to ensure that special characters are properly encoded in the output, generating valid XML tags in the exported BMECat file. Impact No more warning messages triggered by > / < characters during ECLASS Advanced import. BMECat 2005.1 export output is now well-formed XML compliant. No configuration or data migration required.

Fix for ECLASS Advanced and improving the error message (ISSUE-123717)

eclass

Improved error message clarity in ECLASS Advanced importer (BMECat ECLASS Advanced Data Converter – CSV).
