Ability to Connect Questions in Disclosures with Fields from Objects
As an SPTM user, you can configure the following objects and their corresponding field in Disclosure Content Template along with questions -
Country Product SKU, Calendar Event, Price Approval, and parent objects of these objects.
When you generate disclosures, the pre-defined answers that are present in the system records for the selected fields are populated for the questions.
For example, you can define the Country Product SKU or Event field along with the Disclosure Content Template Questions so that the question related to a Product SKU in a disclosure has the answers pre-populated from Country Product SKU or Event.
If pre-defined answers are not found, you can edit the fields, enter the answers manually, and save them.

Ability to Create State Report Asynchronously from PCR
From this release onward, you can generate the disclosures for all states without getting CPU/Resource usage errors.
To enable you to do this, three new custom settings have been introduced - SPTM_Preview_Sku_Size, SPTM_PageSize_MultiPCR, and SPTM_CreateDisclosure_Batch_Size.
Reference - SPTM_Preview_Sku_Size, SPTM_PageSize_MultiPCR, and SPTM_CreateDisclosure_Batch_Size have been added - Custom settings for SPTM
When you create disclosures, the disclosures are created in batches of the number specified in the SPTM_CreateDisclosure_Batch_Size custom setting and the progress is displayed in user interface.
For example,
Consider that a multi-product price approval has 650 proposed prices added to it.
If the value of the SPTM_Preview_Sku_Size custom setting has been set to 100, a message stating that preview of disclosures is not available in the Price Compliance tab, as the price proposal has prices more than what has been specified in the SPTM_Preview_Sku_Size custom setting.
Pagination for Multi-PCR/Events
