The Allow last page system setting will be removed to prevent potential performance issues.

When dealing with large data sets, it can take too long to jump to the last page in a set of records. The implementation was not scalable enough and therefore it was decided to remove this field.

Merging Daily meter readings into regular Meter readings. When this Improved feature is enabled, all Daily meter readings are moved to regular Meter readings in the background.

Enabling the Improved feature will start populating the Tentative notice date and Tentative end date on all active and inactive renewal and termination options.

The tentative notice date (accepting party) for renewal options will also be taken into account to show the first upcoming notice date and end date (accepting party) on the contract.

Be aware that blocked contracts will not be updated automatically (for example if they are blocked via the ‘Blocked’ status on the contract, or via ‘Trial closure with freeze’, or if contracts are linked to a pending approval).

These contracts will only be updated after saving the contract options. The update will be done via a background action and the progress and results can be found in the background log.

The business objects 'Financial year' and 'Properties' have a set of obsolete fields that will be removed. Also, on 'Contracts', the reference to Windows client contracts (SE) will be removed.

These fields are no longer used in the application; for reasons of consistency, it is in the interest of all parties to keep the application clean.

These system fields will no longer be supported after the Release expiry number has passed. Please verify whether these fields are used on user reports, filters, TMS, etc. and if so, please take appropriate and timely action.

The following business objects and corresponding fields are affected:

Planon will discontinue support for using links to BIM elements via the BIM GUID field. BIM Viewer will use BIM System instead, with its BIM Systems business object links for selecting elements.

The content of the BIM System will have already been filled by the BIM Exchange functionality.

This feature will change the way the BIM Viewer behaves. 'BIM System' is required to allow the use of multiple models from different model extensions.

For more information, see BIM Viewer.

Self-Service-specific CAD viewer mappings will no longer be supported. Instead, you can replace them with mappings available in the Web Client. This switch allows you to take full advantage in Self-Service of all these powerful Web Client mapping functions.

As of 01-01-2023, the Kiosk and Room Booking Panel setting Use old version? will be removed. This means that Planon will behave as if this setting is set to No after an upgrade.

When this feature is activaded, the software will behave as if the Use old version? setting of the Kiosk and Room Booking Panel is set to No.

Planon reports will provide a fixed set of fonts to be used with reports, which will always be available irrespective of the server installed fonts, please ensure that fonts used in your reports match one of the following fonts:

If there is no matching font available, Planon will automatically convert the used font to 'Noto Sans'.

Oracle 18 is having vulnerabilities. The support of Oracle 18.0 will be discontinued.

This feature can be activated immediately when running on Microsoft SQL or Oracle 19 or higher.

If you are running Oracle 18.0, the feature cannot be activated until the database platform is updated.

See also: Supported Configurations.

The fields 'XPropFloorRef' and 'XSpaceRef' will be removed in version L85. Please remove them from TMS, reports and authorization.

The Available area field on Fixed workspaces will be made redundant. It will be replaced by the Available area field on the Workspace details.

Microsoft SQL Server 2019 is supported from this Planon version onwards. The support of Microsoft SQL Server 2016 will be discontinued.

This feature can be activated immediately when running on Oracle or SQL Server 2017 or higher.

If you are moving from SQL Server 2016, the feature cannot be activated until the database platform is updated.

See Supported Configurations.

Kiosks and Room Booking Panels without a license are blocked. If your Kiosks or Room Booking Panels are all licensed (see Kiosk Licenses TSI), you can activate this switch and prevent Kiosks or Room Booking Panels from being added without a license. If you have unlicensed Kiosks or Room Booking Panels, contact Planon to order more licenses.

Attributes rely on advanced database features. These features are supported by the following database versions:

To make use of Attributes functionality, your database platform must match these versions (or later).

See Supported Configurations.

Enables you to create multiple work assignments for an order. A work assignment specifies by whom and when the order needs to be worked on.

Upon activation (both with and without the license for multiple work assignments), the switch will change some of the existing behavior in Planon.

See the WebHelp > Work assignments > Overview of changes.

Discontinued support for Microsoft Internet Explorer 11 as of January 1, 2021.

In line with our commitment to the highest level of data security and quality of the user experience, we strongly urge users of IE11 (or older) to upgrade their internet browser to a more recent product.

The 'Classic theme' will no longer be supported from 1 January 2021.

By activating this Improved feature, all users who are currently using the 'Classic theme' will move to the 'Planon light' theme.

See Themes.

The 'Error gadget' and 'Error business object' have been replaced by 'Background actions'. As a result, these two features are now deprecated.

Please remove all references to 'Error gadget' and 'Error business object' in your Planon environment. Possible references can be found in: navigation panel, reporting, alerts / notifications or TMS software.

If references are not removed before the preparation deadline, the upgrade process may fail.

See Background actions.

Planon will replace Planon Mobile Field Services by the Planon AppSuite - Field Services app.

By activating this feature, all field engineers using PMFS must switch to using the Planon AppSuite - Field Services app to work on jobs.

See Planon AppSuite - Field Services.

The old audit fields (INSERTDATE, CREATIONDATE, FK_PERSON_CREATEDBY, GEBRCODE, CHANGEDATE, MUTATIEDATUM, FK_PLANUSER_CHANGE) on assets and building elements have been replaced by new audit fields (INSERTDATE, GEBRCODE, CHANGEDATE, FK_PLANUSER_CHANGE) to align the audit information for assets and building elements. As a result, the old audit fields are now obsolete.

Please remove all references to these old audit fields in your Planon environment. Possible references can be found in: layouts, filters, reporting, alerts / notifications or TMS software. If these references are not removed, the upgrade process may fail.

Automatically deletes security audit logs older than 6 months.

Discontinued supporting a number of time zones. The support is revoked because duplicate time zone acronyms are used, which is causing confusion. (For example, "CST" could be U.S. "Central Standard Time" or "China Standard Time").
