3357007@LAC365FO - Report attachments: First/Last are not always returned if there is more than one attachment with the same timestamp
Using From Archive in an attachment, with either Last or First to find the attachments, has been improved in Lasernet FO Connector 6.19.
In previous versions of Lasernet FO Connector, it was not possible to distinguish documents within the Archive if they had the same timestamp.
Lasernet FO Connector 6.19 uses RecId as well as CreatedDateTime to find either the Last or First attachment (document from Archive).
This approach ensures the proper document is found within the Archive even when the documents have the same timestamp.
In previous versions of Lasernet FO Connector, using either Last or First in combination with the From archive caused an issue if the documents found within the Archive had the same timestamp.
331259@LAC365FO – New Expression editor error: 'Unknown value in # object'
Using information/fields from the Parameter for a replacement report used to throw the following warning in an expression.
Unknown value in Parameter. object: at position "<-!->Parameter."
This is fixed.
336369@LAC365FO – Option to use Custom properties in T&P/Top picking (Background print)
Customer properties are supported for Background print of a report/report-design.
This is useful when multiple designs are required for a report or in case of a special internal (or debug)version of a report is required.
An internal/debug version of a report could have additional information that is only required for internal use or useful to identify issues in a report.

331129@LAC365FO – T&P – LAC Archive - Destination description missing
The description from the predefined destination (Destinations) was not shown in the Lasernet Archive.
This is now fixed, when a destination is found (and included in the XML file).

331106@LAC365FO – T&P - Top picking 'Unprocessed only' can update same document twice
Using “Unprocessed only” through the Top picking within a batch task caused same documents to be “re-processed” multiple times when running the batch with a high frequency (or long running documents).
Lasernet FO Connector 6.19 does not re-process the same document multiple times when using the batch-scheduler for repeating the same batch-job.
Unprocessed only and batch-scheduler in previous versions:
Lasernet FO Connector 6.19:
Please, ensure Recurrence is used to schedule the batch job.
330896@LAC365FO - Warning while importing report (minor issue)
The following warning could appear when importing report(s), but would not cause any issues when running the Report.
This warning has been removed.
Could not find a matching LACArchiveForms record for LACReportParameter. Have LACArchiveForms been selected for import?
330175@LAC365FO – Feature request: Role for T&P batch print scheduling

329833@LAC365FO – Option to select an "alternative" destination when reviewing a document
An option to select an alternative destination when reviewing a document has been added.
In previous versions of Lasernet FO Connector, it was only possible to deliver to the same destination as the one selected before reviewing the document.
In Lasernet FO Connector 6.19 it is possible to select/alter any destination (apart from the predefined one) by using Change when reviewing the document.
Review is useful in case the document needs ”clear verification” before printing or sending as an Email.
This option is also useful in case additional attachments like a “Bill of lading” should be attached before delivery.
329543@LAC365FO – T&P: Checkpoint form set in descending order by date/time so that newest is on top
The sort order in the form containing the Checkpoints is adjusted and is now showing the newest entries (records) on top.
329358@LAC365FO – Print Buttons - Not Showing up on Quotation Journal (Similar: ProjInvoiceJournal)
Adding print destinations/print buttons defined in Print buttons > Common > Direct printout destinations was not shown in form like Quotation Journal and ProjInvoice Proposal.
The form design/patterns for these forms was not the same as the other Journal forms in standard Dynamics D365FO, and it was the reason why it was not possible to add the buttons on the fly (runtime).
Form: Quotation Journal
(Sales and marketing > Sales quotations > All quotations > Quotation journal)

329143@LAC365FO - ProjTable and ProjSorting Table Relationship in Query Wizard
Using an ”Array field” as part of a relation did not properly save the relation after closing the Query Wizard.
Example: sortingId[2]

ProjTable - Definition of ProjTable in SQL
348562@LAC365FO - Adding ‘Related Tables’ under sub-queries in the Query Wizard
In the previous version, it was not possible to add a related table to a parent subquery.
This has been fixed.
Location: Lasernet > Common > Reports > Query wizard
Choosing a “CustTable” as the parent table:
Adding a subquery to the parent table (CustTable):

328706@LAC365FO - OData based subreport behaves incorrectly when added to a Query based report
In previous versions, having a subreport using OData fetch data from, for instance, Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement (DataVerse) did not properly add the ranges for the subreport.
This is fixed.

325678@LAC365FO - CSS timer for long processes
The option to enable a timer for the “progress bar” has been added.
This is useful when benchmarking and adding a report, as standard Dynamics does not always measure/show the proper progress and the progress is often only updated every five seconds.
The new timer is activated at: Lasernet > Setup > Parameters > Performance
The timer will measure and show the progress by the second.
325259@LAC365FO - T&P: Alert on Background print function end
The option to use Alerts is introduced for the Background print: it provides the option to get a notification once documents have been delivered to the Lasernet server.
The option to use Background print is located at Lasernet > Common > Reports > Form links.
In order to have the Backround print in a Journal, it is necessary to configure it for the Journal and for the Report as it is possible to have different reports in the same Journal.
Once configured, Background print will be shown as follows in the standard Journal for the Report.
Use Alerts to configure how to receive the notification once the document has been processed (delivered) to Lasernet.
A notification is provided through either the ”pop-ups” or an Email.
324366@LAC365FO - Missing data in XML if Sort by is added to Group by query
Adding a sorting on top of a Group by query used to cause a missing output in case the query contained more tables/data sources, or no field was added from the parent data source.
This is similar to having a Group by query consisting of the data sources/tables SalesTable and SalesLine for which no fields are added for the data source/table SalesTable.
A sorting is added above the field LineAmount.
