Warning

Work in progress! We are in the process of updating the information on this page. Subject to change.

The 17.2 / Fall 2024 release is planned for September 2024. Find the download links for the latest preview version on the Preview page.

Node.js upgrade

Node.js in Resco products was updated to version 20.x.

openQuestionnaireWithTemplateName

The Questionnaire Player controller on Power Pages now supports a new method, openQuestionnaireWithTemplateName. Use the method if you want to identify the questionnaire by template name. Optionally, include the version number, or use the latest version by default. See the full list of methods for reference.

Create records from questionnaires

The data mapping feature of questionnaires now allows you to create new records from questionnaires.

Collapsible side panes in Questionnaire Designer

In the Questionnaire Designer, you can hide the left and right panes. This leaves more space to focus on the questionnaire body.

Questionnaire Designer: fields adapt to content

When editing questions in the designer, various fields automatically adapt and grow when you enter longer text.

Locate mandatory questions

When answering a questionnaire in Resco Mobile CRM, when you save or complete the questionnaire and the validation fails, the focus is automatically moved to the first mandatory question that needs attention. All other questions that need answers are marked with an alert icon in the question header.

JavaScript support in questionnaires on Power Platform

Questionnaire Player on model-driven apps and Power Pages now supports JavaScript. You can enhance the questionnaires with your own custom logic.

Delete signature after generating report

If you are using enhanced signature flow to sign reports at run time, you can opt to discard signatures as soon as the report is saved. Such signatures remain in the generated reports, but the signature image is removed from the database. When you generate a new version of the report, signature has to be reacquired. This feature can fulfill legal/security requirements, and it can save storage space.

To enable this feature, edit a report with enhanced signature flow enabled in the Report Designer and check Discard signature after report is saved.

Nicer dropdown lists

In the previous release, we have introduced nicer dropdown lists for the iOS version of Resco Mobile CRM. In this release, they are available also for other operating systems.

Support for Aztec codes

Resco Mobile CRM can now read Aztec barcodes. From user perspective, this process is similar to standard barcode scanning.

On iOS, Resco Mobile CRM uses native iOS API.
On Windows, Resco Mobile CRM uses https://github.com/micjahn/ZXing.Net/tree/.
On Android, Resco Mobile CRM uses ML Kit and falls back to ZXing if the ML Kit is not available.

Woodford field usage: more features

In the previous release, we have introduced the feature that identifies fields actively used in the app (so that you can disable the rest and make sync go faster). In this release, we are adding more features, including a whitelist of fields that you don't want to disable.

Theme editor

Simpler Forms+ setup

Getting starting with Resco Forms+ has been simplified. We have created a default fallback Woodford project so that new users of Forms+ don't have to create one (and possibly never touch Woodford again).
