The following known issues are present in this release. Case Portal users can use the following links for more details about each issue: 

  • 92005: For Sugar 12.3 instances with a modified Advanced Search layout in the Users module, upgrading to Sugar 13.0 results in unexpected issues for the Users module's search functionality.
  • 91146: Doc merging records using a template containing custom fields may fail to generate with an error. 
  • 91023: The Search and Select Users drawer may not display the correct count of user records if there is an inactive user in the instance. 
  • 91003: When a report fails to run due to a 500 error, the error message that appears should be more meaninful and informative.
  • 90866: In certain circumstances, replying to an email in Sugar may fail to send and result in a 500 error. As a workaround, click the To field in the email to display the To and From field values first before sending the email.   
  • 90847, 88858: Unexpected email issues may occur in Sugar when using the Microsoft Exchange mail account as the authorized system email account.  
  • 90615: When logged into Sugar using a non-English language (e.g., French), changing the classification value for the sales_stage_dom list in Admin > Dropdown Editor may improperly change the classification values for the other list items. As a workaround, log in to Sugar with the English (US) language and manually update the classification of the list items to the correct values. 
  • 90322: Certain languages (e.g., Chinese, Japanese) with special characters display incorrectly in reports exported as a PDF or CSV file. 
  • 90059: In certain circumstances, sorting a related-record subpanel (e.g., Leads) using the Account Name field column may result in an unexpected error. As a workaround, sort the subpanel using a different field column to stop the error and allow the subpanel to load. 
  • 89878: The Forecast Bar Chart dashlet in the Forecasts module does not display any data for individual sellers. 
  • 89831: Exported reports do not respect the locale settings in Sugar and incorrectly displays the date using the YYYY-MM-DD format.

  • 89641: Hint-related error messages are logged for some recently upgraded Sugar 12.0 instances that do not have Sugar Hint.
  • 89542: For instances wth a very large number of SugarBPM processes, trying to view the list of processes in the Process Management's list view may result in performance issues and fail to load.

  • 88957: In certain circumstances, performing a global search in Sugar may result in a 500 error.  
  • 88374: Attempting to reorder the columns in the Worksheet Columns Preview list view in Admin > Quotes Configuration does not work as expected. As a workaround, remove all the fields from the Worksheet Columns section then add the fields again to the section.

  • 88261: Attempting to download a PDF file may fail if the PDF template contains an image that is hosted on a site using "HTTPS" in the URL. As a workaround, use an image that does not contain "HTTPS" in the URL. 
  • 87908: For instances that use SugarIdentity, the Reset Multi-Factor Auth option improperly appears during a user impersonation session.
  • 87701: Naming a custom field "processed" causes web logic hooks to fail to fire because it conflicts with Sugar's internal logic hook handling. As a workaround, use a different, un-reserved string as the field name.

  • 77719: If a process definition contains a Wait event that is relative to a date field, the process does not adjust for changes that may occur to the date field after the Wait event's initiation.
  • 77287: Performing certain actions (e.g., import, mass update) in Sugar may result in performance issues if there are numerous calculated fields to be updated in related records. As a workaround, add the following line to the config_override.php file to disable the related calculation field updates: $sugar_config['disable_related_calc_fields'] = true;. But keep in mind that the affected calculated values will not be updated and running Recalculate Values on related records.
