The following strings in the properties common component are not translated to the Arabic and Vietnamese languages:
| DE126313 |
| If the translation for a dialect is not available, the basic dialect of the language is considered. If the basic dialect of the language is not available, English is used. For example, if French Canadian (fr-ca) is not available, French (fr) is used. If French is not available, English is used. Note: For Chinese, if a dialect is not available, simplified Chinese (Zh-CN) is used instead of Chinese (Zh). If simplified Chinese is not available, English is used. | DE135417 |
| The RabbitMQ service stops when you run the Message Bridge installer. | DE135853 |
| When Proficy Historian is integrated with Plant Applications, if the connection name matches the server name in Plant Application Administrator, not all the Historian tags appear in the Analysis application in Plant Applications Web Client. Workaround: Provide a connection name other than the server name. | DE136619 |

In addition, the following columns have been added to the table, the General section, and the History section in the Non Conformance page:
| F45644 |
| In addition to serialized products, you can now use Non Conformance to dispose non-serialized products. While disposing a non-serialized product, you can specify the quantity of each product that you want to dispose. To facilitate this enhancement, a new column, QTY, has been added to the Non Conformance page. For a non-serialized product, this column displays the available quantity of the lot on which the defect has been created. For a serialized product, the value in this column is always 1. | F41259 |
| The list of defects in the Non Conformance page are no longer grouped by the non-conformance by default. If you want to group the defects by the non-conformance, you can drag the NC column to the workspace heading. | US388635 |
| The ADDITONAL INFORMATION box in the Disposition window and the FULL DESCRIPTION box in the Select Serial/Lot window now contain a rich text editor, allowing you to apply formatting to the text that you enter. |
|
Previously, when you accessed a defect, the defect information and history appeared as options after you selected  . Now, these options appear as tabs in the workspace, named General and History, respectively. In addition, you can now access the list of dispositions of the associated non-conformance. To facilitate this enhancement, a new section, Dispositions, has been added to the workspace. |
|
If a defect does not contain additional information, the VIEW column in the History section is blank (instead of displaying  ). | US381125 |
A new status indicator, Planned ( ), has been added to the list of defect statuses. This status indicator appears when the disposition method is Rework or CTP and the serial/lot has reached the operation specified in the USE UNTIL/REWORK OPERATION box. In addition, the status indicator for a defect in the Submitted status now appears in red color ( ) instead of green ( ). | US380660 |
The  button, which was previously used to clear the search results, has been replaced with a Clear All button, and has been moved to the left pane. | US374390 |
| When you add or remove a serial/lot from a disposition plan, it is now captured in the defect history. |
|
| When searching for a defect, if the value that you have entered does not match a serial/lot number, non-conformance number, work order number, plan number, material name, or material family name, an error message appears, indicating the same. |
|
| The hierarchical list of reasons that appear in the DEFECT REASON box in the Edit Non Conformance window now appear based on the defect type instead of the non-conformance type. |
|
| When you specify the Continue-to-Process (CTP) disposition method, if there are no future operations for the serial/lot, a message appears in the USE UNTIL/REWORK OPERATION box, indicating the same. | US371092 |
