Issue/Introduction
We have a mandatory company policy that we must meet regarding auditability of the publish requests made and by whom. In order to promote acceptance of TDM Portal, we have created an open URL. In doing so, we have lost the ability to capture the user information. Is it possible to make the email field mandatory to avoid unknown transaction owners?
Cause
EMAIL field at the current time is NOT a mandatory field. This fix has to be put in so as to NOT break current installations that do not have this requirement.
Environment
Resolution
This was fixed on multiple versions - TDMWeb-3.8.120.1.zip and TDMWeb-4.2.10.0.zip. Please check with Support to provide a version of the fix. This fix should be in the next GA release after August 10, 2017, but please verify with Support that the fix made it into the GA release.
The following changes are to be done on the customer environment.
- Add a property at the end of the application.properties file at <PortalLocation>/conf/
tdmweb.selfService.email.mandate=true
