Below are links to guides for updating AyaNova 7 (or earlier) to the latest version of AyaNova 7. If you want to migrate an older version of AyaNova to AyaNova 8 see the AyaNova 8 Migration guide
Select your current AyaNova 7 configuration for specific update instructions
Update networked using Firebird Server
case 4323 - Update to latest 3rd party email component used by Generator service to deliver notifications via SMTP (applies only to the desktop program installation, not optional add-ons)
case 4180 - Addresses potential issue with Generator service failing to deliver notifications via SMTP (email) due to bare linefeed issue (applies only to the desktop program installation, not optional add-ons)
case 4017 - Addressed issue with Generator failing to deliver notifications via SMTP in TLS mode when mail server enforces TLS 1.2 or newer ( i.e. Office365) (applies only to the desktop program installation, not optional add-ons)
case 3892 - Fixed a bug in schedule day view where it was possible to scroll (down) beyond the 24 hours of the day being viewed causing secondary issues as a result. (Reminder: if need to see scheduled items spanning 2 or more days in the *day* view, click on the first day in the mini calendar in the left navigation pane and drag to select as many days as need to view at once)
Case 3875 - update to license fetching process. This update is required to be able to fetch your license key.
case 3759 - Some users experiencing error after selecting "Show All" option in forms. Potential workaround to eliminate error.
As of Jan 12 2021 will not install V8Migrate folder and files, as well removes existing V8Migrate folder/files if previously installed. This prevents the cosmetic error some computers were experiencing related to the files of the V8Migrate folder.
case 3829 - In some cases Client notification messages were triggering an internal exception upon delivery attempt due to an out of bounds array access.
case 3823 - Issue: Windows AyaNova search result of Client Note opens Client, not the client note. Fix: in Windows client will now open Client then notes, then reveal the exact note by scrolling row into view, highlighting and if user has edit rights expands the notes for immediate viewing. Note that this change will not be done in the remote Clients (RI, WBI) at this time due to potential for breaking changes and as v8 release will make this issue redundant.
case 3815 - Issue: Windows AyaNova grid row count defaults issue causing potential unnecessary delays / potential timeouts. Fix: Upon fresh login all grids will default to 100 rows initially. Changes *during* user session will be "sticky" as before.
3827 - Issue: Stale Client notifications could build up in database. Fix: Stale Client notifications automatically removed (only when a new one is added) if their deliver after date is older than 7 days.
3826 - Issue: System warning memos to Administrator automatically by internal Utility account (generator) un-readable due to being sent from a Utility type User account with no name triggering an exception error. Fixes: New memo warnings will be automatically changed from Utility user to Administrator account. Old memos: will substitute the "-" empty record symbol instead of trying to fetch the name to display for the Utility account making it possible to open old Memo system warnings.
case 3816 - Administrator account could be locked out if SQL server errors displaying last view
case 3808 - Potential Client notification duplicate deliveries. Ensures no duplicate notifications in batch email and logs more details about delivery to assist troubleshooting.
case 3759 - Intermittent / rare error after selecting "Show All" option in forms. Expanded error reporting around ShowAll to aid troubleshooting.
case 3750 - Error / unable to add Assigned Document to Contract object
case 3751 - Potential error / crash opening Assigned Documents list for any object when a linked file no longer exists in file system
case 3754 - minor cosmetic change to make About information reported by each plugin more readable / concise in tech support information.
case 3761 - Further additions of V8 Export plugin for early testing purposes only for future AyaNova 7 to AyaNova 8 migration
case 3738 - PO Items could remain not deleted when PO closed with none received
case 3739 - PO Item quantity ordered sometimes not set correctly when PO is partially received, then closed
case 3740 - Database schema update to repair inventory related values due to prior issues fixed by cases 3738 and 3739
(Re-set inventory on order, on order committed, remove orphaned po items that are status closed_none_received, re-set qty ordered on po items that are status closed_partially_received)
case 3736 - All main object edit forms except workorder would not prompt user to save before printing report which could result in stale values on report
case 3734 - fix for unhandled exception error during search when search index object id stale
case 3731 - Unit list Receipt column was not filterable in main grid
case 3717 - Improved error reporting if issue during map/link with more details.
case 3718 - Mapping / linking large lists could overwhelm sql server, improved speed and efficiency .
case 3716 - Client entry form Active checkbox was too wide, could cause unintentional change.

case 3712 - Internal change to support QBOI oAuth2 new login process
case 3701 - Setting an existing, Active client to Inactive and saving that Client will now also cause any PM's for that Client to be set to Inactive. In addition the PM processor has been changed to no longer process PM's into Workorders for Inactive Clients.
case 3700 - Workorder preventive maintenance item list was erroneously displaying the "Service completed" column.
case 3714 - Added support for SAGE 50 2020
case 3671 - Due to breaking change by Intuit / QuickBooks online authentication system to oAuth 2 (which also indirectly drops support for desktop applications signing on to QuickBooks Online): Created new web application hosted on AyaNova.com to act as a go between to allow desktop QBOI initial authentication to QuickBooks online API. Extensive modifications of QBOI to use web app to initiate authentication and continue to work with QuickBooks online authentication changes.
