Release 2019.5 is now available; it is a minor release that contains bug fixes, and refinements. We will begin scheduling 2019.5 updates on customer Test systems starting October 8th, 2019.
Notable Changes
Optimized the Charges Grid and Ports/Pins/Lens Picker.
- Added an Open Source Button to the Charges Grid.
- Added Ports/Pins/Lens Transfer Import
- Added an Add From SDC button to the Service Desk Workflow tab
Added a unique key on Ports/Pins/Lens. The Port/Pin/Len Side is now required.
Note: PCR will add an Adhoc grid for any customers who currently have duplicate Ports/Pins/Lens records. Customers are responsible for cleaning up the data on production before they can upgrade to 2019.5 in production. We will NOT upgrade any customers to 2019.5 or later if the Adhoc grid still contains duplicate Ports/Pins/Lens records.
Please review the Database Changes in 2019.5 and make any necessary changes to your Adhoc Grids, Custom Events, and API calls.
