To All:
The GA release of FACTS v9.3.1 is right around the corner. This incremental release of FACTS is slated for a 12/06/19 GA release date and we are on target to meet that date.
As this release of FACTS is an incremental, consisting mostly of defect/bug fixes, there will be no Pre-Release Webinar (as announced previously). However there are some new features/functionality that are associated with projects started in the 9.3.0 release but not completed. They are now!
The following documents are included in the 931_Pre_Release_Deliverables.zip file attached to this Wiki posting. Also, due to some of you having trouble directly downloading the file(s) attached to the Wiki posts I have also placed the 931_Pre_Release_Deliverables.zip file in my Info FTP box. The credentials for my FTP box are:
FTP Server: ftp.infor.com
Username: jrosengarden
Password: QLIF637L
If you plan on retrieving the zip file from my FTP box…do so quickly. I’ll be changing the password next Friday (10/25) at the end of the business day.
The following are the 5 files included in the zip:
1. DO_MetaData_File_Changes_Master.xlsx
Each tab in this workbook is the DO Data compare between Version X and Version Y of FACTS. As previously promised I have been maintaining this spreadsheet and re-releasing it for each new FACTS release. Each FACTS release will add a new tab to this workbook with the DO Data compare between versions. The latest tab in this workbook is the "9.3.0 - 9.3.1" tab. This tab contains the DO Data Compare between FACTS v9.3.0 and FACTS v9.3.1.
2. DefectsfixedFACTS931.pdf
This PDF contains a list of all defects resolved in the upcoming, FACTS v9.3.1, release. This is actually an excerpt from the "Release Notes" documentation that will be released commensurate with FACTS v9.3.1 going GA but I figured you could all use an early 'heads up' on the defects that have been resolved (along with their related incidents - if any).
3. FACTS931FeatureDemos.pdf
This PDF contains a brief description of each video produced for this release of FACTS as well as a hyperlink to take you right to the video on the web. All of these videos are on YouTube but they are unlisted. This means you can't search for them, stumble upon them, or accidentally 'discover' them. Without these URL links there is no access to the videos. Feel free to share these videos with your staff and clients as needed.
4. Pre_Release_v931-MASTER_FINAL.pdf
This PDF contains a brief description of all the feature/function changes/additions that have been incorporated into this release of FACTS.
5. FACTS931_PreRelease_Demo.7z
This zip file contains a fully functional, working copy of FACTS v9.3.1 as it exists today. This is, of course, meant for our development partners to install allowing you to review the new capabilities of this release of FACTS and see how it might impact any of the modifications/changes you've made. There is actually no installation required. Simply put the unzipped folder wherever you desire, create a desktop shortcut for it (use an existing FACTS desktop shortcut to mimic the parameters properly) and fire it up.
*** VERY IMPORTANT NOTE***
Please keep in mind that code-cut, for this release of FACTS (v9.3.1) will be on Friday, November 1st, 2019 - end of business day. If you have any changes/submissions you want included in this release of FACTS you MUST have your code delivered to us by this date/time.
I'll make a new Wiki Posting, in this forum, right at the GA release date (planned for Friday, 12/06/19) once we confirm that FACTS v9.3.1 has, indeed, been released in the Download Center and that all associated docs have also been released in the Documentation Center. All of the above docs, updated as necessary, will be re-released at that time.
.......and the beat goes on!
