⚠️ Important Notices
Restoring a backup with a PostgreSQL extension that requires database administrator privileges (for example postgres_fdw) will continue to work correctly on on-premise installations. The exception is extensions that require permissions beyond the database itself — reading files from the server's disk or executing commands (for example foreign tables via the file_fdw extension); for security reasons, such a backup cannot be restored.
We therefore recommend verifying that your backups can be restored, or removing incompatible objects if necessary. If needed, a "non-functional" backup can still be restored — Flexi can skip objects listed in the pg_restore_skip_list.txt file in the installation directory (on Linux, /usr/share/flexibee). Each object should be listed on a separate line exactly as output by pg_restore --list; for extensions, this means a pair of lines, EXTENSION - file_fdw and COMMENT - EXTENSION file_fdw. Lines starting with # are ignored.
Nothing changes for cloud installations.
Improvements
The new web interface design is gradually becoming the default, rolled out in groups based on license type — starting with BASIC licenses, followed by other variants. This change only affects users who have not yet manually selected a design — anyone who previously switched back to the old design will remain on it. You can still switch between designs using the
?channel=parameter in the application URL.
Bug Fixes
The PostgreSQL data directory upgrade now completes successfully when installing a new version. Previously, the upgrade tool crashed immediately after launch on all platforms — the installation appeared to succeed, but the server then failed to start and displayed a misleading error about the firewall and antivirus software. Additionally, on Windows, if the database upgrade fails, the installation now stops and rolls back instead of silently continuing.
The custom button with
${objectIds}now works correctly when applied to a large selection of records in the desktop client, even when the resulting address exceeds the length limit.Upgrading the database to a new version no longer fails due to duplicate GUID identifiers in employer's monthly report items. Duplicates are now removed.
