DESTINY ONE VERSION 5.7 PRE-RELEASE NOTICE

1 NEW FEATURES IN VERSION 5.7
1.1 Erase Person Feature (ONE-59596)

To facilitate a user’s right to be forgotten, which is stipulated under the EU’s General Data Protection
Regulation and came into effect in May 2018, a new Erase Person feature was added to Destiny One.
Three types of people can now be erased from Destiny One: students, contacts, and proctors. For more
information on Destiny Solutions’ and a school’s responsibilities under the GDPR, refer to our
whitepaper.

Instructors and staff cannot be deleted from Destiny One using this tool as those individuals have a
contractual relationship with the school and are therefore not subject to the GDPR right to be forgotten.

The process by which the user who wishes to be forgotten makes the request to the school is offline and
not managed by Destiny One. After a school administrator validates a user’s request, they can access
that person’s profile to start the erasure process.

Three new permissions have been added to the Destiny One system to allow administrators access to
the Erase Person feature from the respective profile type.

    •   Erase Student (Enrollment Manager > Profile > Student Profile > Erase Student)
    •   Erase Contact (System Administration > Contacts > Contact Profile > Erase Contact Profile)
    •   Erase Proctor (Curriculum Manager > Proctors > Proctor Profile > Erase Proctor Profile)

After clicking the “Erase” button, the system validates that the individual has no financial obligations
(that is, no outstanding invoices or credit memos). If they do, the erasure is blocked, and those
obligations must be settled before the erasure can be initiated. If the student belongs to a group with an
outstanding invoice or credit memo, the admin must first remove the student from the group in order to
proceed.

The Erase Person process is irreversible, so take great care with whom you grant the permissions to
access this feature. When executing an erasure, the system will ask for confirmation in the form of
initials of the administrator. If the individual being erased is a youth participant, a second confirmation
will be required from the administrator indicating that they have received the request to be forgotten
from a parent or guardian.

Following submission of the confirmations, the system will obfuscate and/or delete direct and indirect
personally identifiable information in Destiny One. Mandatory profile fields will be obfuscated with
replacement text such as “Deleted” or “Deleted YYY-Mmm-DD” or a one-way hashed value. All optional
profile fields will simply be deleted. Any associated profile data and records will be deleted, not limited
to: historical addresses, internal comments, profile holds, applications, references, uploaded file
attachments, communications and tracked emails, program offering admissions, transaction line item
notes, basket notes, marketing question responses, coursework file uploads, grading sheet comments,
attendance sheet comments, student health insurance records, student financial aid tracking records,
group and contact associations.

DESTINY ONE VERSION 5.7 PRE-RELEASE NOTICE

The Erase Person feature will not delete: financial transactions including enrollments, drops, transfers,
voids, wait list, and special request purchases, grades, proctor exam bookings, PII data that may appear
in hosted log files such as IP addresses (data in hosted log files will be deleted through normal purging
and roll-over processes; schools with an on premise installation of Destiny One should implement
appropriate log control processes), PII data that appears in standalone data import or export files
external to Destiny One which is outside of Destiny Solutions’ control. We recommend that schools
review their internal data processing guidelines to ensure that such files are purged on a regular basis.

After the Erase Person process has run, the person record will still exist in the database but the system
identifier will be changed to a one-up number following this pattern: {school’s config prefix
letter}D##### + the last digit of the original number.

For students, all enrollments, financial transactions, and grades will continue to be attached to the
student record, but any personally identifiable information will be obfuscated or deleted. Class rosters
will continue to the erased record, but the identity of the student who enrolled will be unknown.

For all person types, the erased person record will be changed to Inactive, which will preclude it from
being returned in default search results for active records.

Impact to school staff: Staff with permissions to access this feature should make sure that they
understand the implications of erasing a person record.

Impact to school customers: Students, contacts, and proctors should be made aware that they have a
right to be forgotten; the school’s privacy policies should be updated to explain how these users can
make such a request.

School system administrator action required: Review the new permissions and assign them to the
appropriate staff members. Train staff on the availability and usage if this feature.

1.2 Website Cookie Consent Policy (ONE-59597)

We have added a new configuration point to activate a website cookie consent pop-up to appear when
a user visits the Public View for the first time. Destiny One uses cookies to track individual users and
schools may also use their own cookies for tracking and marketing purposes. It is a privacy best practice
for websites to collect consent from users.

The new configuration point is called PV Cookie Policy Consent Popup (key:
publicView.cookiePolicyConsentPopup). When enabled, a new cookie consent policy will be shown to all
first-time visitors to your website.

This configuration point affects the Public View and all portals. It has no impact on the Staff View.

The text that appears on the pop-up is controlled by a new content management block, PG0198 Cookie
Consent Policy Text. The default verbiage for PG0198 is as follows:

the expiry date to a date other than the standard 365 days.

    •   SV Refunds: Credit Memos Mandatory Expiry Date (Key:
        payment.creditmemo.expiryDate.mandatory) - When enabled, using credit memos (i.e. refund
        to account) requires the expiry date to be entered. When disabled, the expiry date is optional.

        payment.creditmemo.expiryDate.numberOfDaysInFuture) - Define the default expiry date (as a
        number of days after the transaction occurs) for SV credit memos (i.e. refund to account). A

1.9 Value Date for Bank Wire and Journal Entry Payment Subform (ONE-59181)

If schools want to track the Value Date of a payment to appropriately reconcile payments that were
made by Bank Wire, a new Value Date field was added to the Bank Wire/Journal Entry payment subform
used when processing enrollment transactions through the Staff View.

We added a configuration point that controls the display of the Value Date field:

    •   Bank Wire Payment Value Date Display (key:
        customize_feature.bankwire_payment.value_date) - When enabled, the Value Date on bank
        wire/journal entry payment type is displayed. When disabled, the value date field is hidden on
        the bank wire/journal entry payment method form. See also
        customize_feature.bankwire_payment.value_date.mandatory.

We also added a configuration point to control if the Value Date field is a mandatory or optional entry:

    •   Bank Wire Payment Value Date Required (key:
        customize_feature.bankwire_payment.value_date.mandatory) - When enabled, the Value Date
        on bank wire/journal entry payment type must be populated. When disabled, the Value Date
        field is optional for entry. This property is dependent on the property
        customize_feature.bankwire_payment.value_date, which controls if the Value Date field is
        displayed for the bank wire/journal entry payment method.

The Payment Details: Transaction Time report will include the Value Date in a new Value Date column if
a date is entered in the payment subform. The Value Date column is visible only in the XLS report output
format.

Impact to school staff: Staff should be trained on this new feature.

Impact to school customers: None.

School system administrator action required: Determine whether to enable this configuration point.

1.10 New Enrollment Restrictions for Program Offerings Based on Student
     Category or Citizenship (ONE-59179)

On the SA > Enrollment Rules > Restrictions page you can now create an enrollment restriction rule that
can be applied to program offerings based on student category and citizenship.

The Rule Category of Program Offering allows staff users to:

    •   Set requirements to limit the use of fees to students who have a specific Student Category as
        defined on the Student Profile. Student categories can be any student category or specific
        student categories (retrieved from a list of options defined in the student categories preference
        table). One or more categories can be selected and added to the restriction profile.
    •   Set requirements to limit the use of fees to students with a specific country of
        citizenship. Destiny One compares the Country of Citizenship and the Second Country of
        Citizenship fields on the Student Profile with either the school's country or the list of countries
        defined on the restrictions page. If countries are specified, the list of countries is based on the
        countries defined in the student citizenship preference table.

The restrictions can be assigned to program offerings in bulk from the Restrictions page or individually
on the CM > Programs > Offering Profile page using the Enrollment Rules subform.

Note: With these restrictions the following assumptions and constraints affect its use:

    •   Applies to students registering as an individual or as part of a group enrollment.
    •   Enrollments via CAP and CLP are not included.
    •   If a student is not qualified for enrollment based on a restriction rule, they receive a validation
        message upon clicking the Checkout button on the Public View. A staff user also receives a
        validation message when trying to process the enrollment in the Staff View (which users with
        appropriate permissions may override).

Impact to school staff: Staff should be trained on this new feature.

Impact to school customers: None.

School system administrator action required: Train appropriate staff on the availability of this feature,
and create new enrollment restrictions as required.

1.11 Enhancements to Statement of Account Report (ONE-57634)

Enhanced the Statement of Account report with updated criteria and new criteria selections on the
criteria selection page; updated column labels and added new columns in the report output; and added
two new content management items to include in the report output.

    •   Criteria page enhancements:

                        the Invoice type. It will be blank when the type is Credit Memo.
    •   New content management items for any additional content, such as instructions, payment
        information, or terms can be included in the report through the following content management
        items under Marketing > Public View > Content Management:

1.14 Show Outstanding Balance for Invoices on the Conference Receipt Report
     (ONE-56312)

We added the current outstanding balance for any invoice on the Conference Receipt report if there has
been any invoice pay-down activity in that transaction. This helps staff and customers see the
outstanding balance for any invoice with pay-down activity. The balance will be recalculated any time
the report is generated and a date/timestamp will appear adjacent to the calculated balance.

Impact to school staff: Staff should be trained on this new feature.

Impact to school customers: Customers will now see the current outstanding invoice balance on the
receipt, if there was paydown activity in that transaction.

For the Payment Allocation Details: Costing Unit report, the Transaction Date Range selection on the

1.16 New Salesforce Connector Pipeline for a New Student Created in Destiny
     One to be Sent to Salesforce (ONE-59692)

This new pipeline is available to schools that license the Destiny Connect Salesforce Connector.

We updated the Destiny Connect Salesforce Connector reference implementation to support a Creation
event in Destiny One to push student information into Salesforce (SF). In the “Use Case Diagram”
(below) the new event is indicated with blue font.

When a student record is created in Destiny One for the first time*, an event will send the student
record to SnapLogic, and then the pipeline will attempt to create that person as a new contact in
Salesforce.

    •   If there are no potential matches in SF, the Contact will be created in Salesforce, and the
        Salesforce Contact ID will be sent back to update the student record in Destiny One. Any
        subsequent profile updates, initiated in SF or Destiny One, will trigger an update to the other
        system.
    •   If a potentially matching record already exists (using duplicate matching criteria), a duplicate
        resolution event will appear on a new page in Destiny One (Staff View, SA > Integrations >
        Duplicate Student Failure Resolution) where a staff member can (a) delete the event, (b) match
        the student to one contact in SF, or (c) force create a new contact in SF.

If that new student also completed an enrollment or a purchase, the corresponding Notification of
Transaction would also be sent to Salesforce (which includes section, bundle, program offering, and
conference enrollments). Note that special requests are in the Notification of Transaction payload sent
to SnapLogic but we are currently not sending special requests to SF – but this is possible if a client
wished to customize the pipeline and add more custom tables to SF.

*A student record may be created in Destiny One for the first time by the student submitting an inquiry,
completing a mailing list sign up, completing a campaign sign up, completing a purchase or enrollment,
starting an application, or creation as a member of a corporate group or family group, or agency or
sponsor group. Note that students created by data migration will not trigger the pipeline, but students
created by bulk data import will trigger the pipeline.

Impact to school staff: Staff should be trained on this new feature.

Impact to school customers: None.

1.17 Replaced SHA-1 Encryption Protocol with PBKDF2 (ONE-56699)

We have replaced our SHA-1 password hashing algorithm to PBKDF2, which is one of the one-way
functions recommended by OWASP . The new one-way hashing function:
    • Is named PBKDF2WithHmacSHA512 (Password-Based Key-Derivation Function version 2 with
        SHA512 as the pseudo-random function), and is supported by JDK 8.
    • Hashes each password with a different 32-byte salt value, generated using a cryptographically
        secured random generator.
    • Uses a work factor (aka iteration count) of 5000
    • Uses 256 as key length.

1.18 New Web Services

Starting with this release, we now support versioning of web services by using namespaces. Web
services that were in place as of Destiny One version 5.6 have been maintained in namespace “v1”.
Moving forward, when Destiny Solutions refactors existing services, they will be added to a new
namespace so that both the legacy and refactored service will be accessible. With release 5.7, on the
web service homepage, you will see two new namspaces: InternalViewServiceV2 and
InternalViewRESTV2.

In release 5.7 we are adding the following new internal web services. These are available in web service
namespace v2:

    •   createSectionProctoredExam
    •   updateSectionProctoredExam
    •   getSectionProctoredExam

We have also refactored the following web services to improve performance and add new capabilities.
These are available in namespace v2:

    •   getStudent (the prior version still exists in namespace v1). v2:getStudent now has
        informationLevels defined, to return different amounts of data. The following attributes were
        removed from the student element: alternateName, code, description, documentFaxed,
        personNumber, socialSecurityNum. The attribute and value fields are now wrapped in a
        getStudentRequestDetail container.
    •   searchStudent (the prior version still exists in namespace v1). v2:searchStudent is now
        paginated, with a maximum pageSize of 250. The following attributes were removed from the

DESTINY ONE VERSION 5.7 PRE-RELEASE NOTICE

        student element: alternateName, code, description, documentFaxed, personNumber,
        socialSecurityNum.
    •   createOrUpdateStudentFinalGrade (the prior version called setStudentFinalGrade still exists in
        namespace v1).

Destiny Solutions reserves the right to remove web services that have significant performance issues but
moving forward we no longer need to change the name of legacy services to v1.
You can continue calling legacy services with the same namespace and service name as you do today.

If you choose to use the latest version of a particular service, you just need to specify the namespace
(example, v2 or v3) in which the refactored or new service exists.

For any new development, we recommend using the latest namespace in which the web service you
need to call exists.

1.19 Enhanced Web Services

    •   Added  attribute to searchCourseSection and getCourseSection web
        services (available in Information Level 'Full' only). This will return the same information that is
        visible on-screen when a user clicks the "View Details" button to see information about
        schedule(s).
    •   Added  attribute to searchCourseSection and getCourseSection web
        services (available in Information Level ‘Medium’ and higher). This will be the same information
        that is visible on-screen when a user clicks the info icon to see information about the enrollment
        restriction(s).
    •   Added Notes (Public) and Prerequisites (Public) request elements to the createCourse and
        updateCourse internal web services.
    •   The updated public web services searchCourseSection and getCourseSection will return (in the
        FULL information level) only the assigned instructors flagged as Public in the Course Section
        Profile.
    •   Updated the searchCourse and searchCourseSection public and internal web services with the
        new request element courseStatus to return courses with a specific status.
    •   Updated the searchCertificate public and internal web services with the new certificateStatus
        request element to return certificates with a specific status.
    •   Updated response payload for getGroupSectionEnrollments to include the new completionDate
        element.
    •   Updated Notification of Transaction payload to include the costing unit elements:
         and .

2 BUGS FIXED IN VERSION 5.7
2.1 Conference Manager Information Collection When Paying By Another
    Method (CORA-60)

Previously, if a conference registrant opted to pay by another method, any answers that they provided
to information collection questions may have been lost when the transaction was forwarded to a staff
member for processing. This has now been resolved and any supplied answers will be maintained until
the basket is processed by a staff member.

Impact to school staff: Additional Information collected in the Conference Registration Site will be
retained and available when processing a referral transaction in the Staff View.

Impact to school customers: None.

School system administrator action required: You can now safely expose Pay by Another Method as an
available payment option for conferences even if there is Additional Information Collection.

2.2 Dashboards with Maps Now Show International Locations Correctly (ONE-
    61421)

The following five dashboards that use a map to show locations were not correctly plotting addresses
outside of the United States or Canada. These have now been fixed.

    •   Applications/D12 - Applications by Location
    •   Enrollment/D3 - Section Enrollments by Location
    •   Enrollment/D20 - Program Offering Enrollments by Location
    •   Enrollment/D21 - Conference Enrollments by Location
    •   Enrollment/D22 - Certificate Enrollments by Location

Impact to school staff: International locations will now be mapped correctly on dashboards.
