Bug Fixes
-
Fixed an issue with Forecast Plan baselining, where selecting a forecast start month in Year 2 caused the baseline plan to fail in copying lines for all years. Addressed an issue in Expenses > Contracts, where default values were not populated when adding a new contract line with hidden "Start date" or "End Date" dimensions.
