| As of our v20.1.0.1561 release, Our Xero toolkit has been deprecated in favor of our SSIS Productivity Pack. Please read details below. |
Version 20.1.0 - June 5, 2020
This release comes with the following updates and enhancements:
- Deprecation: Our Xero toolkit has been deprecated in favor of our SSIS Productivity Pack, which offers a much more sophisticated infrastructure to handle complex integration scenarios. You may continue to use the toolkit as long as you can live with the existing capabilities, however this version will be our last release of the Xero integration toolkit on its own, there will be no further enhancements or bug fixes offered going forward. SSIS Productivity Pack offers a collection of over 250 components which can significantly boost your SSIS ETL development productivity with Xero API support included through our REST component framework (including REST connection manager, REST source component, and REST destination component). Our API support in Productivity Pack comes with much greater flexibility. We highly recommend you upgrade before the toolkit stops working due to changes and evolvements of the API from the vendor side.
Before finalizing the upgrade, we strongly recommend you complete the migration of your SSIS packages by downloading our SSIS Productivity Pack from its download page. Unfortunately, we don't have a tool that can convert the package automatically due to vast metadata differences between the two different products. - New: We added OAuth 2 support in Xero Connection Manager.
- Enhancement: Xero Destination component now supports working with duplicate column names from upstream components as long as the columns are coming from different sources.
- Enhancement: We have made some minor improvements in our retry implementation on intermittent errors.
- Update: We have adopted a new versioning strategy in this release. From this point on, all future releases will be versioned as YY.ReleaseWave.ServiceReleaseNumber.BuildNumber, where YY is the year in two digits. This helps simplify our communications with partners and clients in terms of a particular toolkit installation's maintenance status among many other benefits. This is implemented across the board for all of our SSIS toolkits including SSIS Productivity Pack. All our current releases should have the same version number of v20.1.0 with a revision number between 1561 and 1565.
- Update: We have introduced a new branding panel in our UI forms to distinguish our components from those out-of-box ones.
- Update: We updated .NET framework requirement to v4.6.1 for SSIS 2012 and above.
- Update: Our license manager program now requires .NET Framework 4.0 or above.
- Fixed: You may get "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" error in Xero Destination component when Error Handling set to "Redirect rows to error output".
- Fixed: You may not get proper Secondary Default Output rows and Secondary Error Output rows from Xero Destination component.
