Release Process
Avionté continuously improves its products. These improvements are installed to existing application structure; each release is a set of improvements to the previous release. The release notes are organized in a separated manner per release and are not aggregated into one page.
For example, in the event a customer's application is upgraded from v14.2.3 to v16.1, changes between those releases will be available through multiple sets of release notes (from 14.2.4 up to and including 16.1 notes.)
Navigate to Support Center > General > Release Activity to view Avionté's available release notes.
Release Versioning
Changes are rolled forward so the patch number will reset to zero for each subsequent release (i.e. 15.2.0.2 read as major release 15.2, patch 2, 15.2.1.0 read as minor release 15.2.1).
Deprecation
Generally, "deprecation" refers to something that is acknowledged but discouraged. A software deprecation is the removal process, or discouragement of use, of an application feature. An application feature may be deprecated because it has been replaced, doesn't work as expected, or its support requirements outweigh its benefit or use.
Avionté release notes provide a list of items scheduled for removal as well as a list of items recently removed.

In upcoming releases, web portal functionality will gradually be replaced with functionality provided by the Aero platform. |

| "Generate ACH" Button |
In order to improve back office system performance, the infrequently used "Generate ACH" button in Back Office > Weekly Process was removed in release 15.2. Automated Clearing House (ACH) is an electronic network for financial transactions in the United States. An ACH payment is an electronic payment created when a customer transfers money from one account to another electronically; it is facilitated by the Automated Clearing House. |

Product Enhancements
Release 16.1 includes several enhancements and additions to the core application and portal products.
Check Corrections
The config option CheckCorrectionWindow was added to limit the window in which a check date can be set for a check correction. The config option, a site level option, is used for check corrections through the Payroll and Paycheck sections.
The DRM type CheckCorrectionBatchVerification was created to validate details prior to the check correction process. DRMs of this type will run during check corrections through the Payroll and Paycheck sections.
An Error & Warning side tab has been added to the Paychecks Void, Paychecks Reissue, and Reverse Paychecks wizards. This errors tab hosts DRMs of the type CheckCorrectionBatchVerification.
A system error message has been added to prevent non-employee checks to be reversed through the Payroll and Paycheck sections.
Example
ABC Customer wants to prohibit voiding or reversing a paycheck that is older than 30 days. The DRM (of type CheckCorrectionBatchVerification) must have logic added to verify that the batch's PaymentBatchTypeConfigSystemChoiceID matches either "Void" or "Reverse Paycheck" before firing. This will prevent the DRM from firing when the batch type is "Reissue Paycheck".

Web Login Credential Email
This Web Login Credential Email update moved the password reset email from a customized, stored procedure into the template section of the Avionté core application. This reduces the need for a support call in order to set up the URL used in the email and eliminates the need to make a change to the email's verbiage.
To complete the work, a new config option was added to store the Web portal URL, tooling was created for these templates in Email > Templates, and the existing admin tool (Order Candidate Mail Template) was expanded while renaming it to better describe its new purpose.
Added Config Option: PortalLoginURL
A new config option was added at the supplier level to store the web address (URL) of the Avionté Web portal used in email templates. Specifically, the optional email sent on a password reset. This replaced the config option NewWebLoginEmailInfoSP, and corresponding customizable SP.
Note: If this configuration has no value, no text will be substituted when the substitution field #Recipient.PortalLoginURL# is used. More information below.
Removed Config Option: NewWebLoginEmailInfoSP
Was replaced by the functionality using PortalLoginURL.
New Admin Tool: Assign Email Templates
The new Assign Email Templates admin tool allows for standard or customized email templates to be assigned for candidate assignment and web portal credential change emails. It contains two tabs. One replaces the existing Order Candidate Mail Templates admin tool, and the other contains functionality for the web portal credential change emails.
Web Login Wizard
When a user marks the Email Web Login checkbox, a check is made whether the recipient's supplier's PortalLoginURL ConfigOption is set. If not, an error message is displayed, but the user is allowed to continue.
Note: If the recipient's supplier's PortalLoginURL ConfigOption is not set, no text will be substituted when the substitution field #Recipient.PortalLoginURL# is used. More information below.
Two New Error Messages
- Error with message will alert users if the PortalLoginURL isn't set when sending a password reset email.
- New error with message "You can't delete a template that's configured to be used in system emails.", will appear if user is trying to delete a template that is currently in use.
New Default Mail Templates
Four new templates were added to handle password reset emails
- ApplicantPasswordReset
- EmployeePasswordReset
- CustomerPasswordReset
- VendorPasswordReset
Software Correction: Duplicate System Templates
Fixed a bug where "system" templates would show up twice in the template list after being edited and saved. (templates with a MassMailTemplateUser record that contains an empty GUID as the value of the FKGUID column)
Email > Template: New substitution field
A new field is available for use with Contact and Employee templates. The field #Recipient.PortalLoginURL# can be added to templates to display the URL stored in ConfigOption PortalLoginURL.
| Example | Description |
| Log into the portal at the following URL: #Recipient.PortalLoginURL# | This would display the URL entered in WebLoginURL as a link after the ':'. |
Create Email Template
Config Options: PortalLoginURL
E-Verify V29
The Avionté Core Application now supports E-Verify Version 29.
Improvements were made regarding E-Verify passwords in the Avionté Core Application. Password improvements include:
- users are now prompted to reset temporary passwords
- passwords can now be reset using the current password
- an error message will now display to users with an expiring password.
The Avionté Agent will no longer request information automatically if the E-Verify credentials are incorrect. This change prevents unwarranted account lockouts.
An E-Verify case will display a case status containing the LastEligibilityStatus when closed.

Weekly Process Actions Menu
An actions menu has been added to the Weekly Process section. Items include "GL", "Generate Green Shade", "Reset ACH/PosiPay". Shortcuts are no longer set actions, but can be set to any item on the Actions menu list.
Reset ACH/PosiPay Actions Menu Item
The option Reset ACH/PosiPay was added to the Weekly Process actions menu. Users can now reset ACH or PosiPay files if information was entered incorrectly or files were missed. Users no longer need to call support to clear unwanted or incorrect files.
This actions menu item is only visible to users with the new User type config option wkl_ResetACHOrPosipay marked as Active.
Note: This option must have the Active check box marked through the Config Option by Property tab.
wkl_ResetACHOrPosipay Config Option
The User Type config option wkl_ResetACHOrPosipay has been added. By default, this config option is inactive. When the Active checkbox is marked, the new Weekly Process Actions menu item "Reset ACH/PosiPay" is visible.
Note: This config option must be marked active or inactive through the Config Option by Property tab.
IMP_ach_GenerateAchFile Added to Core Application
The stored procedure IMP_ach_GenerateAchFile has been added to source control and any customizations must be submitted to the Perforce release line. In versions 16.1 and newer, customizations to the ACH procedure should be contained in a new CUO_ stored procedure. Due to this change, customers should test their ACH during upgrading.

Record of Employment (ROE) Feed Version 2.0
ROE feed generation has been updated to report information related to vacation pay, statutory holiday pay, and separation pay. Additional changes were made to better report Insurable Earnings, Insurable Hours, and ROE relevant dates.
New Config Transaction Type Properties: New config transaction types were added to Admin Tool > Transaction Types > Property to tag transactions with ROE information:

New Employee > Extra entries: New entries were added to Employee > Extra to hold information used when generating ROEs:

- FirstDayWorked: Has been added to hold the date when a given employee started work. This will need to be set to the date the employee first worked an assignment of a particular pay period type before a ROE is generated for that type.
Note: The date must still be after the ROELastGeneratedDate for that pay period type.
New ROE Generation Parameter: When Generating ROEs it is now necessary to select what pay period type this ROE is being generated for.

Agent Manager
The Agent Manager is a simple utility that handles the process of deploying job packages to Agent installations and configures environments for Agent to target. The GUI execution mode is intended for self-hosted clients, while the console mode is for hosted (DevOps).
Users obtain the Agent Manager via a Microsoft Installer made available on an FTP. The installer, which is an MSI, is a single file and uses the standard Windows installer methodologies to place the Agent Manager and Agent Service files onto the target computer. The installer also establishes the Agent scheduling database, if need be, and migrates it to the target version.
Agent Manager GUI
The Graphical User Interface is a basic Winforms application used by self-hosted clients.
As a command is selected from the drop-down menu, necessary fields are made available. Per the drop-down menu selection, unnecessary fields are not displayed. If the Run button is selected and a required field has not been populated, the Output area will display still-needed information.

Avionté Resume Processor
ARP database structure and the background parsing process have been adjusted to improve the resume parsing experience for the customer.
- To provide an indication of time to parse, a file size column has been added to the ARP database. Units are displayed in bytes.
- In order to avoid multiple ARP instances using the same database, an ARP host name has been added to the ARP database.
- A Client IP Host column has been added to the ARP database.
- To eliminate object null errors:
- Monitoring apps hitting the root of ARP are no longer sent all the way through AMP for validation.
- The system no longer forwards null, blank, or environment IDs with only a whitespace requests to AMP. Additionally, if an environment ID does not exceed a maximum length of 100 characters, the request is rejected outright.
- To allow access to monitoring apps, an entry point has been added to ARP. The entry point is a default root access.
- To improve efficiency, the code that pings the appliance for the CPU usage (and its number of pending requests) has been removed. The unused BASH script has also been removed from ARP.
Technical Notes
Entity Framework migrations were used to handle the added columns.

Payroll processing has been adjusted to ignore Transactional Adjustments (non-taxable transaction types such as reimbursements) when calculating employee deduction amounts. Permanent deductions calculate strictly on taxable transaction types.
Note that this may cause negative net amounts when processing checks containing both taxable and negative non-taxable types. Ensure the "ppv_CheckForNegativePayCheck" standard Data Requirement Message (DRM) with the text "The Check has negative net amount." is enabled. |
