Highlights

The Reporting Tree feature has been implemented in Nectari to provide you with a fast and flexible way to build financial Reports based on the structure and hierarchy of your company. Although the main function of the Reporting Tree is the creation of financial Reports, it can be used in any other functional areas of your business (Sales, Logistics, Manufacturing, etc.). This allows you to build complex hierarchies composed of interrelated business units such as Departments, Cost Centers, Territories, and more. This hierarchy is built through groups of Nodes that represent an organizational chart, in which each box defined reflects a user-defined context that rolls-up in a hierarchical way. By selecting a Node (Filter) in the Tree, you can then view your Reports in a variety of ways, all from one place. The same logic applies when distributing Reports; it will generate all the required versions of your Reports based on your hierarchical configuration in a single output. You can find more details on this in our Reporting Tree documentation.

The Migration extraction type and Transformations in the DataSync have been improved. Click here for more details.

Enhancements

Web Client

  • Global Variables can now be used in a Page Header or Page Footer. Refer to Page Setup for more details.
  • You can now customize the Page Header and Page Footer when exporting to XLS, XLSX and HTML file. Refer to Page Setup for more details.
  • The Link To feature has been improved. By default, links used to open internally, i.e. just next to the tab that contained the current View. Now you can specify whether you want these links to open in a new tab in your Web browser or in a pop-up window. Refer to Link To for more details. This means you will now be able to use the Link To feature when displaying a View in standalone applications such as Microsoft Teams or in an embedded application such as Sage X3 (for Sage X3, refer Adjustment for Syracuse in the Embed into Sage X3 sectionSage X3). When used directly in embedded or standalone applications, the opening behavior automatically switches from Opening in a new tab to Opening as a pop-up window. This is to ensure that it works even if the settings were not configured, as the Opening in a new tab is not supported for the embedded view. Refer to Profile for more details.
  • A new feature called Apply to Filtering Panels has been implemented in the Distribution. Previously, Filters were applied to all Views in a Dashboard without taking into account the logic of the Filtering Panels. Now, if a Filter is based on a Global Parameter common to the Filtering Panels, that Filter will be applied to the Filtering Panels which will determine the Views impacted by that Filter. The Distribution will apply the same logic and behave as if this action had been done manually by a user. Refer to Creating a New Job for more details.

DataSync

  • The Import feature now uses versioning logic to ensure template compatibility.
  • Empty and Null values are now supported in Transformations. Refer to Add a Transformation Group for more details.
  • When exporting Extractions, the Transformations you defined are now included. Refer to Export an Extraction for more details.
  • A new feature called Purge Condition has been implemented for Migration extraction type: It allows you to clean the table based on a condition before importing new data. Refer to Purging Tables for more details.
  • A new feature called Duplicate Table has been implemented for the Migration extraction type. Refer to Duplicating a Table for more details.

Fixes

Web Client

  • When exporting a Worksheet to PDF format, 0 values were blank instead of displaying 0 in the PDF file.
  • When exporting a Worksheet to PDF format, the Filters were not displayed correctly in the PDF file if the Data Model Name and View Name were disabled in Page Setup.
  • Fixed a bug introduced in 9.5: It was impossible to save changes in the Data Model Translation window.
  • Customers with a Central Point version inferior to 7.1.6 could not log in after updating the Web Client if they were not Administrator.
  • In some specific cases, the Data Source password became corrupted when the name of the Environment was changed.
  • If a condition set on a Job was not met during Distribution, the history displayed a Failed status instead of a Success status with a Condition Not Met message. The Failed status gave the impression that the Distribution had encountered a problem, but this was not the case.
  • When a Job was set to be Run as Admin user, an error saying the user did not have the permission could occur.
  • When distributing an Excel Add-in file containing a Pivot in a hidden sheet, an error could occur.
