12642, 12671, 12598, 10724, 12548Incomplete Bookmarking list (UI, API)Not all GGN where included in the API, Not all GGN loaded in search UI, List limits, Errors with large lists in the Bookmarking Excel download. A fix has been implemented to prevent these situation from occurring in future for the API and to ensure complete Bookmarking-Lists in the UI.
12654Impediments about Data Access Rights that lead to blank fieldsAccording to users, the Supply Chain Portal’s Public Search was displaying empty fields (e.g. for ‘Country’) depending on the browser used, even though the data should have been accessible. The issue has been resolved for all browsers following a technical adjustment.

12366Partial searchAn enhancement has been made to the current search function in the Producer List, meaning that the search term no longer needs to match the search result exactly. You can now perform a partial search by entering at least 3 characters. There is currently a limitation to this feature. If a search result (Producer) does not contain the entered character sequence, one of the sub-producers will match the search result. We are looking into optimising this function.

Following a technical adjustment, test cases were successfully carried out. The issue should therefore now be resolved.
