VISTARBM-2523 508 issue - Print Individual Records reports are not accessible Problem: ----------- Reports are not 508 Accessible. Technical Problem: ------------------ There was no option to make the reports accessible. Resolution: ----------- Added option to make reports accessible and also had to implement the accessibility of the reports. 2. VISTARBM-2575 508 issue - Error is not identified and is not described in text for BR Patient Search Problem: ----------- When Data is entered that does not meet the criteria- the user does not receive an error on their screen. Technical Problem: ------------------ The Update attribute was not added on the component. Resolution: ----------- Add the update attribute to the component to make sure that the error is updating on the page. 3. VISTARBM-2578 508 issue - ALT + C keystrokes do not work to activate Continue/Close button Problem: ----------- The ALT + C keystroke is not rendering any action. Technical Problem: ------------------ The action is being stolen by other functionalities on the page. Resolution: ----------- Use a different keystroke to render the needed action for the page. 4. VISTARBM-2582 Entra ID login is not populating email address on site selection page Problem: ----------- When a site-selection page is presented, the e-mail address of the user showed up as (null). Technical Problem: ------------------ The header was not being parsed if the page is being accessed with the siteSelection page. Resolution: ----------- We are now parsing the JWT header if the siteSelection page is accessed instead of bypassing the parsing. 5. VISTARBM-2573 Print Individual Records - Eye Exam DD export is missing data Problem: ----------- Eye Exam Data export is not showing up with data. Technical Problem: ------------------ These reports were never designed to export with data which is why CSV was disabled. Resolution: ----------- Disabled the dropdown for the Data export option. 6. VISTARBM-2583 Successful save alert message icon needs updating Problem: ----------- The area for messages shows up with a red circle with X in it no matter the messages. Technical Problem: ------------------ The red circle with X is hard coded and there is no per-line configuration. Resolution: ----------- Removed the hardcoded red X; each line now displays an icon specific to its level (errors each now have a circle with a red X and info has a blue circle with an exclamation mark). 7. VISTARBM-2606 Fortify fixes after rescan and configuration changes to Blind Rehab CI/CD Problem: ----------- The BRS application failed some audit scans due to the way the PII data was being written as a string and passed into the JASPER reports. Technical Problem: ----------- An unstable data type was being used to store PII information. Resolution: ----------- Write directly to the CSV instead of allocating everything in a string first. 8. VISTARBM-2628 INC43161812 - blind rehab - error when attempting to display logged in users from the Admin menu Problem: ----------- LoggedInUsers page sometimes results in a 500 error. Technical Problem: ------------------ Non-threadsafe HashMap was used to store the session information. Resolution: ----------- Switched to a ConcurrentHashMap to be threadsafe.
