Deprecation of Azure Storage Use in Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations

Authors list

Earlier today, we identified an issue regarding the deprecation of Azure Storage use in Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations, which, therefore, also affects Lasernet FO Connector.

This deprecation has been introduced within a Quality update and blocks the Flight-mode access to Azure Storage. Loss of access to the Azure Storage will result in the errors outlined below when attempting to print reports with Lasernet.

Microsoft has released a fix for this issue in Quality Update 65 (10.0.41). Therefore, we advise users on 10.0.41 to ensure they are on a working Quality Update. We advise users to not upgrade to Update66 (10.0.42) until further notice to mitigate this issue.

The following versions ARE NOT WORKING: from 10.0.41 (10.0.2015.97 - 102).

The following version ARE WORKING: 10.0.41 (10.0.2015.54 and 0.0.2015.103+ or newer)

Update from Microsoft

Microsoft have acknowledged the issue, and the fix is currently in status 3. The issue number is 4444487.
