Release Notes

All Release Notes

IMPORTANT Messages:

NOTE: This is a Mandatory Release for compliance with the Rate changes going into effect October 2nd, 2022.

Known Issues:

None

Enhancements:

T23584: In Rate Case 2022-2 there were changes to First-Class Mail round-trip DVDs and flats as reported on Part D of PS Form 3600-FCM. This required implementing the mail.dat conversion 19-1 and 21-1 for CQT-1008. In addition a fix was made for an empty MPU-1123 machinability indicator.

Bug Fixes:

B23577: We modified the merge function so that now, when the input and output files are the same version, the merge process finds the lowest Revision (HDR-1192) value from the input files and populates the output file's "current" HDR record (the HDR-1192 field) with this value.

B23708: A non-fatal error was appearing for customers when entering a registration code for the first time (i.e. for new installs only). This has been fixed.

B23693: The ability to click buttons while the SQL Connection Manager message box is showing (which was causing an error in the program) has been disabled.
