Upgrading to Order and Inventory Management – Accounting Connector Summer 2023

This page describes the changes to make when upgrading to Summer 2023.

See the Upgrade Steps section under each feature for details of any action required. If you don't want to use or upgrade an optional feature, you can skip the upgrade steps for that feature. To perform upgrade steps in your org, you must be assigned administrator permissions.

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 Summer 2023, see New Features and Enhancements in Order and Inventory Management – Accounting Connector Summer 2023.

Warning:

Before upgrading the Certinia Help package to Summer 2023 from an earlier version, we strongly recommend that you export your existing AP vouchers, invoices, and credit invoices to Accounting. Otherwise, the new lookup fields might not be populated for existing documents and you might need to populate them manually.

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.

Supply Chain Management Is Now Order and Inventory Management

Upgrade Steps

No upgrade steps are required for the name change. Most labels are automatically updated.

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 Order and Inventory Management, 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 Order and Inventory Management, 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.
