A new function, IsWorkflowLocked(), has been added to the Longview Application Framework to check if a data area is locked by a workflow process. This function returns 1 if the area is locked by any workflow process and 0 if it is not locked.

Example:

For more information, see Longview Developer help.

A new command, GET EFFECTIVEAUTHORIZATION, has been added to the Longview Application Framework to retrieve the resolved authorizations for a user and group combination. The command can be run for specific users and groups, or ALL can be specified to retrieve results for all users and/or all groups. The command outputs results to a CSV file containing User Name, Group Name, Authorization Name, Authorization Description, and Restricted to Group columns.

Example:

GET EFFECTIVEAUTHORIZATION "JohnDoe" "Analyst" TO EffectiveAuthorizatioResult.csv"

For more information, see Longview Developer help.

A new function, DecimalPlaces(), has been added to the Longview Application Framework for use in exportspecs. This function controls the number of decimal places in export output for TEXT and JSON data targets, preserving trailing zeros to match the specified decimal count.

Example:

DecimalPlaces "value", "2"

For more information, see the Longview Developer help.

A new function, GetSymbolPartitionIndex(), has been added to the Longview Application Framework. This function returns the partition index value for a specified symbol.

Example:

For more information, see the Longview Developer help.

The Value Fields section in Longview Designer's Data Area Export Multiple Value now includes a Decimal Places column, allowing users to set decimal precision (0-9 or blank) for each export field.

Longview now supports UTF-8 characters in symbol descriptions. Symbol descriptions can have up to 100 characters or 200 bytes.

Group Authorization Override has been added for systems on the ISW platform. Administrators can now define and manage user authorizations at the group level, with group authorizations completely overriding individual user authorization settings. This provides centralized, role-based authorization management and eliminates the need to manually remove unwanted authorizations for each user.

For more information, see Application Administrator help.

The Mappings Editor now includes a Duplicate option in the right-click context menu, allowing users to quickly create new mapping tables based on existing configurations. All mapping data is copied to the new table.

Multi-Regional Provision now provides comprehensive control over which national temporary difference accounts are transferred to regional calculations, eliminating unnecessary data transfers and reducing manual cleanup efforts. This enhancement introduces a filtering framework that allows tax analysts to specify national accounts that should be excluded from regional gross transfers.

A new National Transfer Exceptions application provides tax analysts with granular control over which national temporary differences are transferred to regional calculations. This enhancement eliminates the need to manually reverse temporary differences in non-applicable regions, streamlining multi-regional provision workflows. Key capabilities include:

• Exclude from All Regions: Specify national temporary difference accounts that should be excluded from all regional calculations, with support for parent-level selections to exclude entire groups of temporary differences.
• Region-Specific Exclusions: Define exceptions for specific regions while allowing transfers to others.
• Hierarchical Account Display: Accounts are presented hierarchically for easier navigation and selection. Simplified Management: Add, update, and remove transfer exceptions through an intuitive table interface.

Foreign exchange (FX) calculations for ASC Tax Provision have been reorganized to split processing by element groups, significantly improving calculation efficiency and performance.

Foreign exchange (FX) calculations for IAS Tax Provision have been reorganized to split processing by element groups, significantly improving calculation efficiency and performance.

Longview has streamlined the deferred tax calculation architecture by removing legacy Deferred Tax Rate events and associated elements that are no longer required. This affects both ASC and IAS Tax Provision and Multi-Regional Provision systems. End of year deferred tax rates are now calculated in the deferred tax proof reports removing the overhead of calculating and storing these rates throughout the database.

Longview Tax now includes built-in support for the Excessive Interest and Financing Expense Limitation (EIFEL) calculation, allowing tax analysts to perform EIFEL computations directly within the system rather than calculating offline and manually entering results. The feature covers the full EIFEL calculation scope, including IFE amounts, IFR amounts, ATI amounts, excess and absorbed capacity, cumulative excess capacity, Restricted Interest and Finance Expenses (RIFE), and Excess IFE (EIFE) under subsection 18.2(2), as well as Partnership IFE add-back under paragraph 12(1)(l.2) — with support for group ratio elections where applicable.

Administrators can enable or disable EIFEL via the Calculation Options app, which automatically activates the required events, publishes the associated apps and reports, and updates source accounts and elements for both deferred and current tax automations. Tax analysts can manage EIFEL account hierarchies, enter inputs by period and entity, specify the ratio of permissible expenses, and review results at leaf or parent level through a dedicated EIFEL report. Automation settings for EIFEL inputs support import, export, and rollover during period-end, year-end, and scenario initialization.

Longview Tax now supports automation of Excessive Interest and Financing Expense Limitation (EIFEL) inputs, eliminating the need for tax analysts to calculate EIFEL values offline and manually enter results. The new automation framework supports leaf accounts under the Interest and Financing Expense (IFE), Interest and Financing Revenue (IFR), and Adjusted Taxable Income (ATI) sub-hierarchies, with configurable methods (Year-To-Date Balance or Change in Balance), and executes for leaf entities and Legal Entity Group members where EIFEL is enabled, calculating in both source and translated currency where applicable. Automation settings can be managed through a dedicated manage app and are fully supported for import, export, and rollover during period-end, year-end, and scenario initialization.

The rollover validation screen now checks for active workflow locks and alerts users when workflows may prevent the rollover from completing. A link to view workflows in the Tax Client is provided. This check only appears when workflow is enabled.

Data Extract now includes a Custom Cell Format checkbox and Decimal Places input for improved formatting control to improve performance in Longview Add-In for Office.

In Longview Add-In for Office, performance was slow when retrieving values and comments for workbooks with a large number of LVCELLs.

The User Submissions application experienced performance issues when loading batches from an Oracle database.

Longview data servers were updated to address potential security vulnerabilities.

In some cases, the Listener could enter a deadlock state during shutdown when web agents were still processing API calls, causing the servers to hang on shutdown.

In Oracle environments, data area monitoring by dimensions was not working.

In some cases, after modifying a report template's symbol selection in the down/across dimension with conditional display set, the lvwag.exe crashed when opening the modified report in Report Viewer.

Third-party dependencies in the Longview SSO service were updated to address newly reported security vulnerabilities.

Third-party dependencies in the Longview Process Maps were updated to address newly reported security vulnerabilities.

In some cases, the Longview HTTP Proxy Server crashed during normal operation, causing the system to be unavailable.

Users experienced sign-in failures on the Longview Dashboard when signing into two different environments simultaneously for the same organization on ISW platform systems.

The Regional Rate Change Acquisition calculation was not populating all required elements for multi-currency partnership entities within multi-currency regional groups.

The Return Tax Calculation for IAS Tax Provision was only processing source currencies resulting in the NA1101 Current Tax Charge report in reporting currency displaying zero for prior year elements (GrsPYPR_IAS, GrsPYEQ_IAS, GrsPYOCI_IAS). Similarly, the RA1101 Regional Current Tax Charge report showed incorrect RegCurrent_IAS values for these prior year elements.

The Return Tax Calculation event has been updated to:

• Process all currencies in the system rather than only source currencies
• Calculate and store prior year tax amounts in both local and translated currencies
• Use appropriate foreign exchange rates for currency translation
• Update event rules to reference CURRENCIES### instead of SourceC### for proper multi-currency support

For Systems Upgrading:

The legacy ReturnTaxC12 control symbol is automatically moved to the EVENTS_NotInUse hierarchy and replaced with the new ReturnTaxCalculation symbol.

Multi-regional deferred tax calculations using the Blended Deferred method would ignore;Calculate Regional Provision; entity setting in ASC MRP systems. Note that changing this setting will not clear deferred tax data previously calculated.

The Scenario Maintenance application would restrict the year field to the Tax Provision year, when other solutions were installed alongside Tax Provision in one Longview Tax system.

Combined reports were not properly published for Tax Planning in Multi-Regional Provision systems.

The performance of the Deferred Tax Recognised (IAS) calculation has been significantly improved for systems configured with numerous DETAILS, SEGMENTS and CURRENCY symbols.

The SA0301R Multi-Regional Deferred Tax Proof was not being published in ASC Multi-Regional Provision systems. The report can be found in the ;MSP All Regions; category.

In Table 3A and Table 3R input when users deleted comment text without clearing any other values in the row, blank rows would appear in the reports, creating confusion and cluttering the presentation of the respective reports.

Multiple usability issues in the Manage Constituent Entities (MCE) and Manage Jurisdiction Elections (MJE) editors have been resolved, improving data management and system stability for Pillar Two implementations.

Fixes include:

• Currency Edit Error Resolved: ;Variable iSourceCurrency does not exist; error that occurred when editing currency values through the right-click edit menu has been corrected, allowing proper currency updates for constituent entities.
• Linux Display Refresh Fixed: On Linux systems, the editor now properly refreshes the display after making changes through the right-click edit menu, ensuring users see updated values immediately.
• UPE Change Warning Restored: The Manage Jurisdiction Elections application now correctly displays warnings when the Ultimate Parent Entity (UPE) is changed while the application is open. This ensures that Safe Harbour Exclusion settings applied to the previous UPE are flagged for review, and the valid entity list updates appropriately.

Event rules for Pillar Two Covered Taxes Automation were missing for the following standard Tax Provision and Multi-Regional Provision source accounts:

• ASC Tax Provision: NatTP_ASC (National Tax Provision), DefTax_ASC (Deferred Tax)
• ASC Multi-Regional Provision: NatTP_ASC (National Tax Provision), MSP_DefTax_ASC (Multi-State Deferred Tax)
• IAS Tax Provision: TXCT (Total Current Charge), DefTax_IAS (Deferred Tax)
• IAS Multi-Regional Provision: TXCT (Total Current Charge), MSP_DefTax_IAS (Multi-State Deferred Tax)

The Scenario Maintenance application would restrict the year field to the Tax Provision year, when other solutions were installed alongside Tax Provision in one Longview Tax system.

The Import Pillar Two Elections and Import Constituent Entity Election Years applications would incorrectly report success while leaving the automation data table in an invalid state for new entities added in Tax Provision without assigning them to a Pillar Two jurisdiction. This could result in ;Invalid JSON string; errors when subsequently opening the CE Elections administration app or attempting to re-import elections.

The Import Automations functionality for Pillar Two would not add accounts back to the writeable hierarchy when the automation is disabled for all accounts in an import file.

The Routine Profits Test within the Transitional Safe Harbour applications would determine a status of ;Ineligible; when profit before tax equaled the substance-based income exclusion. Both the Transitional Safe Harbour Adjustments input application and the Transitional Safe Harbours Across Jurisdictions reporting application have been corrected.

The transitional safe harbour de minimis test was using the revenue threshold for both revenue and profit before tax possibly generating incorrect results related to eligibility. This affected both Transitional Safe Harbour adjustments and Transitional Safe Harbours across jurisdictions.
