What is included in this month's release

Design Change Requests & Feature Requests

KB Details Description of issue or change request Description of enhancement
KB3205038 Voucher gets created with two different dates, which is not correct per French accounting rules Now it will check whether having a un-realized Gain/Loss backing at time of settlement. If yes, then it will check whether the date having as posting of exchadj isn't equal to transaction date for the settlement posting. If it is, then it will get a new voucher number for the posting else the same voucher number will be kept. 
KB3208173  Post-sync channel DB clean up to reduce data volume.  To enable Post-sync channel DB clean up to reduce data volume feature:1.      Client side must be upgraded on these components:a.       Async Clientb.      Channel database (upgrade by Channel database utility)2.      AOS must be upgraded to introduce a new configuration in Retail scheduler parameters form: "Strip irrelevant master data from channel database"3.      the configuration must be turned on, then synced to channel database by 1110 scheduler job.4.      If there is customization that changes/adds new tables, the channel database stored procedure must also be customized to purge data properly.
KB3207458 Retail offline sync doesn't remove old records from the _TRACKING tables from channel databases or offline databases.  Now it uses Microsoft sync framework provided feature to cleanup metadata in the change tracking tables on both store database and offline database. The cleanup retention day is configurable in offline sync service configuration file. 
KB3208218 Retaining the original Registered Voucher and Transdate on VendTrans after the posting of Approval Journal/Pool Invoice Now the following high-level changes are done1)        When defaulting the posted invoice register into either the Vendor invoices form or the Invoice approval journal, the voucher number and voucher date of the invoice register will be defaulted, unless that period is closed or on hold.a.       If the period is closed or on hold, the system will advance the date to the first day of the next open period and a new voucher number will be set.2)     The voucher date on the invoice approval journal and the vendor invoices form will remain editable. The change is that if the user changes the date, the following message pop up “If you change the date, the voucher number will be updated. Are you sure you want to change the date?” if we click Yes will change the date and voucher number. No will revert the date and put the cursor back in the date field. The users option at that point is to Cancel the pool entry, re-register the invoice with the corrected date and approve the corrected date, if they want to only use a single voucher.3)    When an approval journal or the vendor invoice that was created from the pool is posted, the system will not update the Vendor transaction or the Invoice journal’s voucher number or voucher date.4)     It makes the approval process’ visibility better:a.     From Vendor transactions>Voucher and the posted invoice journal>Voucher, show both the approval voucher and the invoice register voucher when launching the form by default. (Even if they are using different dates and different voucher numbers.) The related vouchers button/all related vouchers button will still be enabled and available just as they are today.b.    From the posted invoice journal, the user will be able to view the Vendor transactions record.5)     Issue where the approval date is not getting set with the approval date from the invoice approval journal or Vendor invoice is also fixed through this
KB3199141 Sales invoice operation should be supported in MPOS With the new implementation, if we invoice a sales order at HQ side without prepayment and then try to invoice the payment at store side it should be processed successfully as Sales invoice operation is now supported in MPOS
KB3208541 When you run any CDX download job, there is an insert into tempdb query that executes 100 times for each CDX job if having around 100 data groups. This causes huge performance implications, especially for large jobs such as pricing changes. Now a new feature is implemented to allow optimization by grouping the change tracking queries across multiple data groups together, if certain requirement can be met.
KB3209155 When you split quarantine orders after pressing the Start button, you see that no quality orders are generated even if the status changed to "Reported as finished".  Now it will make sure that after you split the started quarantine order, you still can generate the quality order when the quarantine order is reported as finished. 
KB3205507 Add support for user to pick the item from another location in short picking scenarios. Now, user will be able to pick the item from another location when short picking scenario is experienced in order to be able to proceed to ship goods as fast as possible.

    Is there a slipstream version available and a stand alone update, don't see anything on LCS, using axupdate with a saved package is all good and well but very time consuming when you need to update a 16 AOS system and it seems to lock the Package.axupdate file when in use meaning I can only run one instance of it at a time.

    Hi, Code in class SRSReportRun in AX which has remarks "that this method currently runs on the client. This will be fixed when the server batch scenarios that render SSRS Reports are fully implemented." Does the Microsoft have released any update/hotfix for this.?

    Is there also a slipstream version of this update available? It doesn't show up like the other CUs on the LCS update tile, and a slipstream would be useful for any subsequent installations.

      Another note from my experience of applying this update is that the application version in Help->About will still be 6.3.5000.133. This is because the ApplicationVersion::applBuildNo() method still belongs to the KB3199741 (CU12) model. I did also spot check in my model manifest that several of the models for the KBs listed above did indeed get installed. I guess there just isn't a model provided in this update to indicate in Help-About that it has been applied.

        Correct, it is just a build with the latest fixes available to choose from. It does not replace applying a CU.

      There is no slipstream package available.
