    Maintenance Report

    This section briefly describes the new features, enhancements, and fixes in Autoform DM 10.5.

    New Features

    Performance Improvements: Autoform DM 10.5 includes a range of performance and robustness improvements in core application functionality. In addition to generally improving performance, these changes enable Autoform DM to reliably scale to meet the demands of larger customers with more complex configurations.

    Customers using this new version should see a significant throughput increase for searches and document imports. Performance testing of a Cloud deployment that holds 50 million documents and has 60 key definitions showed a 130% increase in search throughput and a 30% increase in document upload throughput.

    In general, these performance increases have been achieved by introducing further efficiencies in how the application operates and by updating document upload to use a faster compression algorithm.

    Performance

    Performance improvements. See New Features above.

    Enhancement

    401693

    Import applications

    If an import application is associated with more than one document definition and the user is uploading only one file, the import application no longer asks the user to specify whether all import files are of the same type.

    Enhancement

    421781

    Search applications

    Users can now drag-select text in search result tables. This enhancement enables users to copy data from the data.

    Enhancement

    424062

    Import applications

    The administrator can now select Filename (no extension) for the Default value property of String key bindings to import applications. This setting removes the file extension from the import document’s filename to generate the key's value.

    Enhancement

    421781

    Search applications

    If a document’s row in a search result table contained one or more empty columns, the header area (displayed after the user selected a document and then clicked View) merged some key data instead of displaying a | (pipe) character between each key value.

    Fixed

    400339

    Search applications

    The file that Autoform DM downloads (when the user clicks the Download button that is provided alongside the preview of a document in a search application) did not have the correct filename if the relevant document definition had a custom Filename format.

    Fixed

    401570

    Resolved an information disclosure vulnerability in Autoform DM.

    Fixed

    401693

    Import applications

    If an import document matches an archived document on Customer Unique Key (CUK), the archived document’s key values override the default key values (specified by the import application). However, if the import document’s CUK value is cleared, String keys whose default value is configured as Filename displayed fn:filename() instead of the import file’s filename.

    Fixed

    424831

    Installer

    Updated http to HTTP in the text displayed by the Autoform DM installer.

    Fixed

    Upcoming Feature and Product Retirements

    Formpipe will retire the following features and products in Autoform DM 11 (currently scheduled for Q1 2025):

    • Autoform DM Client

    • Webservices v1

    • Webservices v2

    • Batch Service (Batch Definition Manager)

    As a result, they will be unavailable for use from Autoform DM 11 onwards. This forward notice of retirement enables customers to plan an orderly migration from the features and products listed above to alternative Formpipe software capabilities.

    If a customer requires information about these alternatives or is unsure how these feature and product retirements will affect their current workflows, they can contact Formpipe Support (see How to Get Support).

    In Autoform DM 10.4.1, Formpipe resolved an information disclosure vulnerability in Autoform DM. This fix is included in Autoform DM 10.5. For more information, go to the Information Disclosure Vulnerability in Autoform DM page.
