WSMS6 Service Release Notes

released April 5, 2022

Features

• Shipment Business and Accounts
  • Updated to allow for shipments to have business rules based on specific accounts

released December 3, 2021

Bug Fixes

• API methods for retrieving an assembly were only returning assemblies that had subcomponents.
• Association service was not saving the result correctly after the association was completed. This only affects users reporting associations for railcars.

Changes

• New API methods were added for retreiving the list of all inspections for a component or assembly, as well as the most recent inspection of a specific type. Although these can also be used by 3rd party applications, it primarily affects users of Equipment Builder that are associating components to railcars.
• New API methods were added for creating and managing shipments. These API methods can be used by 3rd party applications and will also be used by our upcoming web versions of Outbound Tracking and Inbound Tracking.

released November 12, 2021

Bug Fixes

• Description field was not being included in emails sent to AIC Support from the Get Support feature of the stations in the shop or from Shop Manager.
• Update Service was reporting upload/update successful to the Manage Updates dialog in Shop Manager, even if an error prevented the service from updating.
• An exception was being logged for all turned wheelsets because the service was trying to format the value of the manufactured timestamp field, but this field is always blank for turned wheels. This did not have any affect on the registration request, it was just incorrectly displaying an error in the log file.

released October 12, 2021

Bug Fixes

• Update Service was fixed to point to the new file server (docs.aicrail.com). Automatic and manual updates should now work again for customers configured for updates.
• Potential memory leak in the update service was causing the service to crash after running for several days without being restarted. In most cases the service would automatically restart itself, but for some users the service would fail to restart and had to be restarted manually.

Changes

• Log Viewer was changed to scroll from bottom to top. New lines are added at the end of the list.

released September 14, 2021

Bug Fixes

• API method GetComponentByWipId was not returning any results unless the shop code parameter was supplied
• API method for SaveInspection was failing to save inspection unless shop code was specified and other optional parameters were specified.

released August 26, 2021

Bug Fixes

• Update Service was not correctly reporting the station’s online status, causing stations to appear online when they were not.
• Shipping Service was requiring a version of a DLL older than what was not being installed. Unless a binding redirect was added to the configuration file, the service would fail to start. The service was updated to force loading a newer version of a DLL if the expected version does not exist.

New Features

• Update Service now allows the user to upload application updates from Shop Manager by sending a ZIP file containing the application executable and required DLLs.
