Dear all,

I have developed the standard Add-on, version number 1.0.0 with UI & DI API Add-on. I created the .ARD file using "Add-on data registration generator".

Then, I installed .ard file on the SAP B1 server, new version Add-on is working fine.

Now, I have to change a some functionality and write some extra logic on the same Addon.

Now, how can i build new version into SAP B1 AddOnInstaller .NET Wizard ? Normally,

using "Add-on data registration generator" installer, i can create new version like 1.0.1, But in that new version, what every new functional changes or new logic are not working.

1) What steps needs to follow for, after adding new functionality or new changes in existing version ?

2) Need to create every time SAP B1 AddOnInstaller .NET Wizard project, after changes in

functionality ?

Please suggest me.

Thanks,

Hi Chenna,

You just need to recompile your project code again and use the latest EXE file (Application EXE file) to create the ARD file again with the higher version.

Hello Ankit,

Thank you for you prompt replay ,

i have did same thing, clean entire solution and recompile (build & rebuild) my application,and after I'm using latest .EXE file only, but latest functionality changes(or newly created logic) are not working with new version.

I have created two different projects for standard add-on purpose. 'MainAddon' project is UI & DI API's code logic everything written in this project, AddOn installer purpose, i have create new project using 'SAP B1 AddOnInstaller .NET Wizard' , in this 'AddOnInstaller .NET Wizard' for the first time, i can give my actual main 'MainAddon' project Application .exe file.

After some time, i have made some functional changes or created new logic in 'MainAddon' project. Now i'm created new .ard file using new application .EXE file , and after coped 'AddOnInstaller .NET Wizard' files and 'MainAddon' project EXE file and dll's.

This is actual process , please correct me , if i'm wrong . But in this process new functionality changes are not working with new addon version.

Thanks,

Chenna.

Hi Chenna,

Can you do one thing for me?

Try to create the new ARD from the scratch. No need to copy any file to an existing one. Create a new one altogether.

Also have you reinstalled the new ARD into the SAP Business One Client?

Hi Ankit,

Yes, i have followed same steps only while creating .ARD. While creating a new .ARD file , every time I'm created new folder only, even i didn't copy pasted other files also. Once recompile entire application, then after I'm using latest .exe files and other DLL files into new folder. And before install new version, i have uninstalled old one and install a new version.


Please check 02:25

Please suggest me, If missing any point here.

Thanks,

Chenna.

Hi Chenna,

What happens when you create the add-on with different name than the previous one? I am still suspecting there is something wrong.

Hi Ankit,

Nothing any errors happen with the new version, but newly writes functionality and logic are not working with the new version.

Have you checking attached video link ? My question is, first time while creating .ard file we can give 'MainAddon' project exe file in 'AddOn general Informatio' tab, Now after some time, i have write some extra code and write new logic into 'MainAddon' project, at this time how can i again added latest exe application file into 'ADDON Installer Wizard' ?

By using Add-on Registration Data Generator, i'm creating new version .ard files.

Thanks,

Chenna.
