FinancialForce is Now Certinia

We have made the following changes to align with our new Certinia brand:

  • The publisher name has been updated to Certinia
  • Package names no longer reference FinancialForce
  • In most cases, text referring to FinancialForce has been replaced with Certinia

For more information about these updates and related text changes, see the Package Name Updates article in the Certinia Community and the Technical Documentation Pack.

To learn more about our rebrand, visit the Certinia Community for a message from our CEO, Scott Brown.

Note:

Major versions include updates to both package and publisher names. In service packs, only the package name has changed. Some elements, such as theming and logos, have not been updated and other references to FinancialForce might remain visible in your org.

Certinia Help

Upgrade Steps

To view the Certinia Help from your org, you require Apex class access to be enabled for the fferpcore.ContextSensitiveHelpController class. By default, access to this class has been added to all PSA, Accounting, and Foundations permission sets. If you use custom permission sets, you must add access to this class to the relevant permission sets. For more information about customizing permission sets, see the Salesforce Help.

The Certinia Help is available via the default utility bar associated with PSA, Accounting, and Foundations apps. If you use the default utility bar, no upgrade steps are required and the Certinia Help will be available from the utility bar automatically.

If you use a custom utility bar, complete the steps in Setting up the Certinia Help.
