Oct 1, 2025October 2025 (uclouvain/osis-admission): Delivered end-to-end improvements across admissions workflow, documentation rendering, and UI/translation layers. Backend changes reduced redundant checks during the signature workflow, refined supervision and proposition handling, updated deletion permissions, and strengthened validation/testing support to ensure robust admission processing. Document generation was enhanced with pre-admission certificate improvements and PDF recap rendering, including date stamping and richer template data tagging. Internationalization saw translation consistency fixes across UI and messages. Front-end reliability was boosted by introducing a dedicated init_htmx.js to initialize dynamic content after HTMX updates. These changes collectively reduced processing friction, improved data integrity, and enhanced user experience while strengthening test coverage and maintainability.

Delivered substantial backend enhancements and data-export improvements to streamline doctoral admissions workflows and improve document handling. Key deliverables include a refactored CDD approval flow and a certificate-generation manager to align status representation with the new workflow, reducing manual steps. Enhanced Doctorate admission processing with stricter validation of propositions, cap on ongoing applications, and improved filtering/notifications. Strengthened document rendering in PDF recap by processing only the first frame and converting transparent images to RGB, eliminating rendering failures. Expanded reporting clarity by splitting the Academic record column into two exports: 'Academic record specified by the candidate' and 'Academic record retrieved' for both doctorates and doctorate admissions. Added an email token to link the documents tab in admissions, with translations and template integration. Also added new portal URLs for supervision group members and performed FR-BE locale fixes to ensure consistent messaging.
