Implementation History​

This section documents key fixes, enhancements, and milestones throughout the development process.

Backend Fixes & Database Improvements (October 2024 - January 2025)​

Database Schema Fixes​

  • Missing document_comments table: Fixed 500 errors on comment viewing/submission by creating table and updating migration 20251021_01_add_document_comments.py to be idempotent
  • DocumentVersion attribute mismatch: Fixed code using document_id instead of parent_document_id in backend/app/routers/documents.py
  • Migration best practices: Created BACKEND_DATABASE_GUIDELINES.md with guidelines for idempotent migrations, table existence checks, and proper sequence of operations

API Endpoint Fixes​

  • Missing Training endpoint: Added GET /{training_id} endpoint in backend/app/routers/training.py
  • Missing Signatures endpoint: Added GET / endpoint in backend/app/routers/signatures.py
  • Configure Approval endpoint: Fixed permission checks to allow admin/QA/users with approve permission, added workflow system awareness
  • Backend startup issues: Fixed migrations running on startup causing errors, fixed seed.py import issues

User Permissions & Role Management (January 2025)​

Permission System Fixes​

  • Role name return: Fixed /api/auth/me endpoint to return role NAME ("QA", "User") instead of role_id (2, 3)
  • Case-insensitive role matching: Fixed frontend Layout.tsx to use case-insensitive role comparison
  • Permission population: Populated PostgreSQL role_permissions table with proper permissions for QA, User, and Auditor roles

Test User Setup​

  • Password hashing: Fixed test users to use bcrypt instead of SHA256
  • User roles: Established proper role assignments:
    • Sarah Johnson: QA Manager (role_id 2) - 19 permissions
    • Mike Chen: User (role_id 3) - 5 permissions
    • David Kim: User (role_id 3) - 5 permissions
    • Lisa Rodriguez: Auditor (role_id 4) - 4 permissions
  • Migration: Created 20250128_02_test_users_and_capa_enhancements.py to capture schema changes

Document Management Enhancements (January 2025)​

  • AI approval database update: Fixed AI-generated document version not updating database by replacing sa_func.now() with datetime.utcnow() in backend/app/routers/ai_assistant.py
  • Manual version upload: Enhanced Versions tab with full manual upload functionality including file selector, version notes, and auto-increment logic

Document Detail Tabs​

  • Versions Tab: Added "+ Upload New Version" button with inline upload form

Document Approval Workflow​

  • Approve button visibility: Fixed to show for both "draft" and "under_review" statuses
  • PDF preview: Fixed file path issues for version preview
  • Workflow integration: Integrated workflow system into approval process with state-based approvals and auto-transitions

Next Steps​

Phase 8 continues with code cleanup, performance optimization, security hardening, and final production readiness validation. Documentation consolidation is complete.

Immediate Priorities​

  1. Complete E2E testing validation using docs/user-journey-validation.md
  2. Finalize workflow template admin UI enhancements
  3. Complete form builder field renderers for all field types
  4. Performance optimization for dashboard API endpoints
  5. Security review and hardening

Future Enhancements​

  • Admin UI for custom role/permission management (similar to GCP IAM)
  • Full version history display (currently simplified)
  • Old version preservation with "superseded" marking
  • Enhanced multi-step approval workflows
