The following notes from the 2024.06 Product Announcement apply to this release too:
Important – SaaS Customers Only: It was previously announced Conditional forward compatibility for packaging is disabled for this release. However, we were able to make some product changes and packaging is enabled except under the following conditions related to the new "Event Launch" Action Node introduced in the Advanced Workflow.
Advisory:
During the upgrade window from Non-Production to Production, users are advised to avoid building packages on the Non-production Environment, utilizing the new AWF feature that allows setting up an Event Launch node to trigger a Data Feed, and deploying it in the production environment. This is because the AWF Event Launch Node introduces new components to the database, which are incompatible with older versions of Archer. Once the production environment has been upgraded to version 2024.06, packages built in the non-production environment can be safely ported and deployed. Please note that deploying the package on production prior to the upgrade will result in the application not functioning as intended and an upgrade post package deployment may not help resolve the issues with the package.
The Max Limit for Calculated Cross-Ref fields feature will not be available in this release.
