Release notes

Version number change

The version number of AX Client has been updated from 15.1.0 to 15.1.1 to align with the version number of the current release of AX Server. Versions 15.1.1 and 15.1.0 of AX Client are identical and there is no need to upgrade if you have version 15.1.0 installed. You can use either of these versions of AX Client with AX Server 15.1.1.

For more information about the security upgrade that required releasing AX Server 15.1.1, see the AX Server release notes.

For information about Analytics updates, see the Analytics 14.2 release notes.

Server tables no longer conflict with linked tables In previous versions of Analytics Exchange, importing a server table with the same name as a linked table and choosing not to overwrite the linked table created a problem. A "ghost" server table was created in the background, and could not be deleted, which meant that analytics would continue to run against the ghost table.

This problem has been fixed by preventing the import of a server table in this particular scenario. Server tables can still be imported if you choose to overwrite the linked table, or if their import does not create an overwrite situation.

Separator characters in Portuguese Analytics Exchange The default separator characters were being incorrectly set in the Portuguese edition of Analytics Exchange. The characters are now correctly set:

• decimal place symbol: ,
• thousands separator: .
• list separator: ;

Rebranding and product name changes ACL Services is now Galvanize, and our cloud-based platform, ACL GRC, is now called HighBond. ACL Analytics is now simply Analytics.

How do these rebranding changes affect Analytics Exchange and Analytics? The short answer is that Analytics Exchange 14.1 and Analytics 14.1 continue to function in the same way as previous versions of the products, with the addition of the new features and enhancements described in these release notes.

Analytics scripts No change. Scripts authored in previous versions of Analytics continue to run in Analytics Exchange 14.1 and Analytics 14.1.

Release highlights Updated version of Java, support for new ACLScript functionality released with Analytics 14.1.
