In the each new levels of patch, Sage do bring the new changes and hot fixes that needs to be identified and needs to be monitored that might hamper the existing customization when the upgrade patch is executed.
To avoid this we should need to understand what new changes or hot fixes sage has deployed in the newer patch level. According if that clashes with the existing customization then we need to handle it prior deploying the patch.
When the each new version is released the Sage do provide release notes that needs to gone through. But rather than going through each patch level, now sage has provided the new independent utility as Patch finder.
The Patch finder is the new component present in the installable which needs to be installed by the below steps:
There is the zip file which holds the patch finder exe as shown below:
Once the folder is unzipped we will be able to see the X3 Patch finder exe in that particular folder.
We need to run the exe, that will land you to the below independent utility as shown below:
In the above UI we need to select the Product and release: From release and the destination release. The next filter we can manage is Modules on which we need to monitor.
Next set of filter can be applied is at the level of changes brought in version as follow:
Type of filter
This filtration would be applied on the do we need to consider the Bugs in the reports, new enhancement brought that might bring the table level or architecture changes. Do need to consider Entry points that newly introduced or any other changes that are brought.
