3. (RMID) TRAVIS CI Integration

In this release, TRAVIS CI has been integrated with the new RMID Open Source repository.

4. (RMID) User Search Speed Needs Improvement

In this release, the RMID Homepage search time has been improved by the following:
1). LDAP search has been removed to improve the speed;
2). Searching the a PI on top of the homepage now only searches within the existing users in the database.

5. (RMID) Search with Blank Space is Only Searching by Middle Name

A previous bug occurred on the RMID homepage when searching by PI name with and without a blank space at the end of a name. When searching with a blank at the end of a PI Name, middle names were being searched. In this release, the search function has been fixed so that adding a space does not return a separate search result.

6. (RMID) Creating a New RMID PI Search Speed Improvement

Previously, when creating a new RMID record and searching for the PI, the speed was noticeably slow at times. In this release, a new method has been deployed that will greatly improve PI Search speed. In addition, the PI search for the "New Research Master Record" creation popup window previously only allowed users to search using last name, first name, email, and Net ID on the same field. In this release, Name, Email, and Net ID have been separated into three searchable types via radio button to allow users to be more specific with their searches.

7. (RMID) Switch out PRISM data Source to Interfolio

PRISM has been replaced by the new faculty management system, Interfolio. In this release, the data feed of both RMID-staging and RMID-production site have been switched for the related functionality, to be using the new Interfolio tables instead.

8. (RMID) PI Department Optimization

In this release, the departments table has been cleaned/optimized in an effort to reduce potential duplicate department rows found within the departments table. In addition, any Users.department data redundancies have been cleaned and are now linked with the departments table instead.
