Set out below is a summary of the new features, enhancements and bug fixes in this release of the Wands for SAP.
Note: While we endeavor to perform as much testing as possible on all new releases, we strongly recommend that you always test a new release in a development environment before deploying to production. Specific attention should be placed on testing larger and more complex reports. This version has been tested on ECC6 EHP8 and S/4 HANA 1909.
Upgrading from Version 4
Since the new architecture is completely different from the previous version, there is no process to upgrade from version 4. Version 20 can be installed independently of version 4 and both can co-exist on an SAP server during the transition to version 20.
-
Workbooks created in version 4 will need to be converted.
-
Version 20 will require its own license key. The version 4 key will not work.
