Upgrading to Accounting Spring 2022

This section describes changes to make for the following features when upgrading to Spring 2022:

See the Upgrade Steps section under each feature for details of any action required. If you do not want to use or upgrade a feature, you can skip the upgrade steps for that feature. To perform upgrade steps, you must have administrator-level user permissions in your organization.

See the Included in this Feature section under each feature for details of items such as objects, fields, or buttons that have been added in this release.

Note:

Where new objects, fields, or buttons have been added for a feature, we recommend that you add them to any relevant page layouts, profiles, and permission sets. For information on how to do this, see the Salesforce Help.

For information on new features and changes to existing features in Spring 2022, see New Features and Enhancements in Accounting Spring 2022 or the "What’s New in Accounting Spring 2022" document available from the Accounting Documentation in the FinancialForce Community.

Mandatory Steps to Complete After Upgrade

You must complete the following mandatory security checks for Accounting Spring 2022.

Security Checks

Permission Checks

A large number of CUD (Create, Update, and Delete) checks are added in this release. These checks prevent potential CRUD-bypass security vulnerabilities, where users might make unauthorized changes to data.

Warning: The following are mandatory requirements and must be carried out after the installation of Accounting Spring 2022. You must take action on the following information.
Note:

The FFA Permission Settings custom setting has been added to Accounting. When upgrading to Accounting Spring 2022, by default, the Disable Permission Checks checkbox is selected. This means that there are no CUD checks applied. If you require CUD checks, manually deselect the Disable Permission Checks checkbox.

For first time installation, no action is required. By default, the Disable Permission Checks checkbox is deselected.

For security reasons, the Disable Permission Checks checkbox will be deprecated in a future release.

Selecting Disable Permission Checks does not disable CRUD checks for the following Salesforce standard objects:

Warning:

Permission checks are always enforced on the above objects, regardless of the Disable Permission Checks setting.

For more information on the permission sets breakdown, see Salesforce Standard Objects and Fields Permissions in the Accounting Technical Pack.

Lightning Experience

For the Spring 2022 release, we have improved our user experience using Lightning Experience across Accounting. This is to ensure that Accounting is intuitive, consistent, configurable, and flexible.

Further Information

If the feature is already enabled, perform the following feature steps:

 Assigning Lightning Record Pages and In-App Guidance

Assign the following page layouts to users that will be using the new record pages:

Review the relevant field sets for the Sales Invoice Line Item and Sales Credit Note Line Item objects and update them if required. The field sets control which columns are displayed in the line item grids for each company type.

Note:

When you upgrade Accounting to Spring 2022, new fields that have been added to a field set display at the bottom of the list. This means that the columns in the grid might not be ordered as expected. You can manually change the order by editing the relevant field set.

Asperato Service for Outbound Payments for Vendors in Payments Plus

To start using this feature in Spring 2022, take the following actions.

Upgrade Steps

Step

Action

Further Information
1

Upgrade FinancialForce Accounting to Spring 2022 (Package Version Number: 2022.202).

Upgrading to Accounting Spring 2022

2 Ensure you have multi-currency enabled in your org. The Asperato service for outbound payments for vendors feature is only available in multi-currency orgs. About Multi-Currency Mode
3

Enable the following features in the Feature Console:

  • FFA Payments Plus
  • [Optional] FFA Payments Plus - Enhancements
 Enabling and Disabling Features in the Foundations Help.
4

Update the FinancialForce Asperato Integration package to the latest version (Asperato Integration Spring 2022 - FF Asperato ONE Integ. Version 2022.207 or later).

Installing the FinancialForce Asperato Integration in the Integrations Help.
5

Update the Asperato ONE package to the latest version (V2.20 or later).

Contact Asperato Support.
6

Contact Asperato Support to enable outbound payments. If applicable, this may also include steps to migrate your org's multiple customer IDs to Merchant Groups if this has not already been done previously.

Notes:
If you have an existing bank account linked to an Asperato Customer ID, you may need to update it with a new Customer ID provided by Asperato, or link it to the applicable Merchant Group.
For more information on configuring bank accounts for Asperato, see Configuring Bank Accounts with Asperato Merchant Groups or Asperato Customer IDs in the Integrations Help.

Contact Asperato Support.
7

Set up Asperato ONE.

 

Notes:

For outbound payments, Asperato uses Airwallex as the Payment Service Provider (PSP). You must configure at least one Airwallex account in Asperato ONE. To facilitate bank reconciliation in FinancialForce Accounting, we recommend creating a separate Airwallex account for each Accounting company that wants to use Asperato for vendor payments from Payments Plus.

Create a separate bank account in FinancialForce Accounting for each currency that you need to make payments for from your Airwallex (account) wallet, using Payments Plus. For example, you must set up two bank accounts in FinancialForce Accounting to correspond to each currency in your Airwallex (account) wallet if you have:

  • An Airwallex account for an Accounting company:
    • With an Airwallex wallet balance for EUR
    • With an Airwallex wallet balance for GBP

Transfer funds into the “Airwallex” FinancialForce Accounting bank accounts (via a cash entry or journal) before starting to use the Asperato Outbound Payments service.

The names of the Merchant Groups created for the Airwallex Payment Service Provider (PSP) must match your Accounting company names.

 See the Asperato ONE documentation.

Add the following fields to the Authorisation Outbound Layout page layout of the Authorisations object of Asperato ONE (asp04__Authorisation__c):
