The installation of this maintenance consists of the following steps:
The complete (new) installation of IDL products is described in the document "doku\Installation\ENG\IDL Konsis - Installing the application.pdf".
The Release 23.1 from March 2023 is minimum prerequisite for the installation of Release 24.1.
This step of installation should be executed by the operating division. It can be performed on the server or a client.
The release migration has to be principally performed as the first step after installation of a new release. Therefore a message box is output at the first call of IDL Konsis and Forecast after installation reporting that the migration has not been performed yet. This message box contains the button <Start migration now>. The migration is automatically started when pushing this button. IDL Konsis and IDL Forecast has not to be restarted after successful processing of the migration, but rather all application functions are available at once.
If the migration is not invoked this way, e.g. because of missing user authorisation, the call of other application functions is locked. Only applications for maintenance of authorisation data are exempted in case, that the user has no authorisation for starting the release migration because of usage of individual authorisation groups. IDL Konsis and IDL Forecast has to be restarted after manual invocation of the release migration for having access to all application functions.
For the manual start of the release migration program either you enter "KONVERT" in the short name input field, or you select the menu item <Release conversion> (below <System administration> --> <Extra Functions>) in the resource tree displayed if no application has been started. Please start the release migration with a double mouse click on the line with key KONV2401.
If the line with this menu id is not displayed, then the authorisation is missing. The migration has to be invoked by a user, who is either allocated to one of the standard authorisation groups IDLADMIN, IDLKON and IDLSYS or to an individual authorisation group with reference to one of these standard authorisation groups.
The following menu IDs are new or include new authorised actions in this release. If completely maintained customer-specific authorisation groups are used, you might need to enter access rights for these menu items (BENMEN). In most cases, the menu authorisations of the user group IDLKON can be used as a template. The list contains all changes since the last major release (23.1).
The following menu IDs are deleted with this release. Please remove all individual usages of these menu IDs (authorisations, menu structures) before installation of this Release:
You find the documentation "Release Notes 24.1 IDL Konsis, Forecast, Xlslink" in the downloaded installation directory in the file doku\release\Release_Notes_IDL_Konsis_Forecast_Xlslink_24.1_english.pdf.
This Release uses version 17 of Java. For the application server, the client and the Launcher we deliver the corresponding JRE (Java Runtime Environment) in the installation directory.
Good success with the new release wishes
