ONTIME BACKEND

• SQL Blocking Optimization Rollback
  In version 6.3.0, new features were introduced to reduce SQL blocking and improve overall performance. However, in certain environments, these changes led to unforeseen issues that were not encountered during initial testing.As a precaution, these optimizations have been removed in this release pending further design review and testing to ensure stability across all supported environments.

Introducing the EVENT SUBSCRIPTION HUB

Since its inception, OnTime for Microsoft has relied on the EWS API to subscribe to streaming notifications for changed events. However, the popularity of EWS streaming notifications has gradually declined, and we are encountering an increasing number of issues with this method.

The Graph API does not support the streaming notification method, prompting us to completely rethink how OnTime receives notifications as EWS support for MS 365 is scheduled to be deprecated.

Microsoft Graph API provides a modern notification mechanism that has several advantages over EWS Streaming Subscriptions:

- Doesn't requires a persistent connection for each subscription
- Can handle many subscriptions efficiently with retry policies and batching.
- Supports subscription expiration and renewal, typically up to 60 minutes for high-security scenarios.

Subscription Hub is an HTTP-based callback API that receives change notifications from Microsoft Graph, handles subscriptions life-cycle and prepares needed data for OnTime Server.

While the EWS Streaming subscription method is still supported we encourage our user organisations to start switching to the OnTime Subscription Hub.

ONTIME DESKTOP

• Event Creation Behavior: Creating an event now defaults to showing the event dialog and inviting the user, rather than directly creating the event on their calendar.
• Group Panel Upgrade: Introduced a new group panel with search functionality and support for group aliases.
• "Working Elsewhere" Status: Events marked as “Working elsewhere” no longer block time in the calendar.

ONTIME ADMIN

ONTIME BACKEND

• Added support for a new group type for rooms: RoomList. RoomList group types can now be used as a Source for Rooms and Shared Desks. Caution: RoomList cannot be included as part of other groups and must be used directly as a Source.

ONTIME DESKTOP

• We have made an improvement to how calendar invitations are handled. Previously, when opening an invitation, the ShowAs status would automatically change to "Busy." This behavior has been updated to preserve the original ShowAs value (e.g., Free, Tentative, Busy, Out of Office) when opening the invitation.

ONTIME ADMIN

• Improved the search functionality for the startup group in the default settings and expanded the width of the result list to enhance readability, especially for groups with very long names.
• Introduced a selection option allowing users to choose between "Graph Only Directory Sync" and the "Legacy Mix" sync mode, which combines EWS and Graph sync. This enhancement provides flexibility for directory synchronization configurations and supports diverse user requirements.
• Loading Spinner for User Sync: We've added a loading spinner to enhance the user experience when syncing users from the User Member section. This visual indicator will appear while the system is processing the sync request, providing users with clear feedback that the action is in progress.

ONTIME BACKEND

• Directory Synchronization has been recoded in MS Graph for organisations running MS 365: In larger OnTime environments, directory synchronization using Microsoft Exchange Web Services (EWS) has previously taken up an excessive amount of time. While we lately made improvements to the EWS code, it became clear that a more fundamental change was needed. In our 6.2 release, we transitioned directory and user group synchronization to Microsoft Graph. This has resulted in a significant performance boost, with a reduction of up to 70% in runtime. Additionally, the new implementation handles situations where Microsoft 365 throttles operations more effectively.
• Implemented queue sync for synchronization jobs which prevents calling new sync jobs while other jobs are still is running.

ONTIME VISITOR MANAGER

• Introduced the ability to modify check-in and check-out dates/times. This enhancement allows guards and receptionists to log entries and exits at different times, providing greater flexibility and accuracy in managing visitor records.
• Introduced confirmation boxes in the Visitor Manager for check-in and check-out actions.
• Users can now set or adjust the check-in and check-out dates directly within the confirmation dialog. Ensures accurate visitor records and reduces errors during the check-in/out process.
• Users can now perform filter-searches for custom text fields in the Visitor Manager.

ONTIME MS TEAMS / OUTLOOK ADD-INS

• Combined the Outlook and Teams plugin folders into a single folder named teams-outlook-new-addin. This change aligns with Microsoft's updated plugin installation structure, consolidating plugins into a unified location.
• Updated the descriptions of icons in the add-in for improved clarity and user experience.
• Updated the add-in icon in the rail for a refreshed and consistent design.

ONTIME ADMIN

• Administrators can now configure a startup group in the default settings. This allows the admin to define which group users will see when they access the application for the first time.
• Renamed "Security User" to "Anchor EWS User" in the domain settings to provide greater clarity and avoid potential misunderstandings.

ONTIME BACKEND

• Optimized EWS (Exchange Web Services) calls by ensuring unused HTTP connections are released, reducing resource consumption and improving performance.
• Optimized the handling of event changes to enhance performance and responsiveness.
• Upgraded Apache Tomcat to version 10.1.34

ONTIME DESKTOP

• Added a "Join Meeting" button on the event preview page for online meetings, providing quick access to virtual meetings directly from the event overview.

ONTIME ADMIN

• Added a new feature that allows users to include the company name within the name format display options. This enhancement offers greater flexibility in personalizing name formats and ensures that company names are easily visible where needed.
• New Default Sorting Options for Desktop Views: Added "Email" and "DisplayName" to the alternative sorting possibilities in the default settings for desktop views, providing users with enhanced flexibility in organizing and viewing data.

ONTIME BACKEND

• In version 6.1.8a, multithreading was introduced for directory synchronization to significantly reduce execution time. This improvement was particularly aimed at addressing delays in larger installations where the synchronization task could take longer than desired to execute. Prior to the release of version 6.1.8a, extensive testing demonstrated substantial reductions in execution time. However, these tests did not reveal that in production environments using the Microsoft EWS API, the service would experience throttling under multithreading conditions.To address this, version 6.1.8b reduced the maximum number of threads from 10 to 2. Unfortunately, this adjustment did not fully resolve the throttling issue.For version 6.1.9, we initially planned to make the number of threads manually configurable. However, further testing showed that even with this flexibility, EWS throttling resulted in inconsistent performance improvements or even potentially increased execution times. As a result, we decided to limit version 6.1.9 to a single thread. While this configuration offers some improvement over version 6.1.7, it falls short of our original goal.We recognize that the throttling issues stem from limitations in the EWS API. To address this, we are actively working on replacing the EWS API with the more modern Microsoft Graph API. This update is expected to enable improved directory synchronization with support for multithreading. We plan to release a new version with these enhancements within this quarter.
  We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused and appreciate your understanding as we work to deliver a more robust solution.
• The event list endpoint was previously a heavy load on the system due to performance bottlenecks. For each user ID in a request, a separate database query retrieved events within a specified time range, causing high database load and memory usage due to multiple collections of event data. Additionally, complex queries with multiple joins and inner selects added to execution time, and post-query filtering was required for each user’s access level.To optimize this, permissions are now filtered upfront, creating two user lists: one for owner/author permissions and one for summary-only access. The query was split into lightweight and detailed versions based on permissions. Events are now retrieved for all user IDs in a single query, reducing database connections. Results are stored in a single collection to save memory and avoid data duplication.
• Added additional logging information for directory sync for each successfully synchronized user.
• Removed redundant log entries generated when the dashboard is left open, improving log clarity and reducing unnecessary data.

ONTIME BACKEND

• This release addresses an issue reported on Tuesday, October 29, 2024. We received multiple support requests from customers experiencing synchronization issues affecting some or all users. Our investigation traced the problem to a change in Microsoft’s Exchange Web Services (EWS) API, which no longer returns the expected “IsCancelled” parameter for events. The issue in the OnTime log will show up as "This property was requested, but it wasn't returned by the server".
  In version 6.1.8b, we’ve implemented a workaround that assumes the “IsCancelled” value is false if not received from the EWS API. This adjustment is relevant for organizations using the OnTime API, but it does not affect the general OnTime desktop UI.
• Additionally, due to heavy throttling of the EWS API in the directory sync process with version 6.1.8a—particularly in Japan—we’ve reduced the maximum number of threads from 10 to 2. In a future update, this number will be dynamically adjustable to mitigate throttling, and the maximum number of threads will be configurable.

ONTIME ADMIN

• Tomcat Heap Memory Limit Increase. The Tomcat Heap memory settings have been updated, increasing the maximum allowable memory from 10GB to 32GB. This change provides greater flexibility and improved performance for environments requiring larger memory allocations.
• New Feature: Performance Settings in Global Backend A new Performance section has been added to the Global Backend Settings, allowing administrators to adjust the minimum and maximum connection pool sizes. This feature provides greater control over backend performance, enabling fine-tuning for optimal system resource management.
• Tomcat version upgraded to 10.1.31

ONTIME BACKEND

• The code for both Directory Synchronization and User/Group Synchronization has been rewritten to support multithreading. Tests have shown a reduction in run time of about 50%.
• The connection pool between the Tomcat server and the SQL server is now configurable to better leverage high-spec hardware in deployments with large user numbers. This enhancement helps prevent the dynamically allocated pool size, as seen in previous versions, from growing to levels that could impact the overall performance of OnTime. Default settings specify a minimum of 10 and a maximum of 20 connections. For larger systems, we currently recommend increasing the maximum by 2 for every additional 1,000 users, up to a maximum value of 60. Please note that any changes to these settings will require a restart of the OnTime application for the changes to take effect.
