Products affected: SendSuite® Live

INSTALLER ENHANCEMENTS

This section describes improvements and fixes to the installer.

Fixed Issue with Encrypted Connection

Fixed issue with the Apply Encrypted button. It now functions as expected.

 

SUPPORT ITEMS

This section includes items that have been raised via Support and escalated to Development for resolution within this release.

Generation 2 Mailroom. Fixed Project Template Display

A popup window has been relocated within the Mailroom project to ensure that all controls display correctly. Also, refer to the PROJECT TEMPLATE CHANGES section of these release notes.

PB Shipping API - USPS. Improved Authentication Token Handling

Updated caching of authentication tokens to increase their reliability if the expiry is less than an hour.

CSRF Security Improvements

Improvements have been made to improve Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) within the product. Additionally, updated the Server Configuration setting Secure Request Validation to allow users to disable CRSF checks.

New version of 7.22.01 Available without Possible Breaking Changes

A new version of 7.22.01 has been issued which removes Possible Breaking Changes. Any customer prior to this version will receive the fix when 7.22.01 is applied. There is no impact to customers using any patch greater than 7.22.01.

Unlike the previous 7.22.01, the updated version won’t reduce the OrderNumber or ReleaseNumber columns in the [Orders] database table if records exceed the limits of 50+ characters. If this value is surpassed, the field sizes are unchanged and remain at 400 characters. However, this could potentially affect performance when loading Order-based data. All changes are applied to records that fall within the new limits.

If performance becomes an issue following this upgrade for customers using 50+ characters, the number of rows stored within the [Orders] table can be reduced.

See 7.22.01 Release Notes for more detail.

Blackbox. Enhanced Image Conversion during Client Printing

The following changes have been made to the printing and handling of End of Day image files:

  • TIFF format is now only used if the images are too big to fit onto a single page, allowing integrations that do not support TIFF to operate with End of Day files. If the images are within a single page size, then the format returned by the carrier is preserved.
  • A new "MimeType" node has been added to the Print Request, allowing an image to be converted during the Print Request. Passing a suitable value into the node will trigger the image format to be changed prior to printing. For example, a TIFF can be converted to a PNG. Also, refer to the XML SCHEMA CHANGES section of these release notes.
