Known Issues
- Filtering of facts within the Reviewer application will result in text block continuations to no longer be highlighted.
- Report creation/import wizard windows shrink and are not resizable, if you display the CDM application on the secondary monitor. You can display CDM on the primary monitor as a workaround.
- String tags that are in merged table cells get misplaced in page when HTML tables generation is enabled.
- When using the CDM Word add-in, outline item actions might result in Microsoft Word throwing the error message: "A table in this document has become corrupted", when the outline item content is just a table.
Installation
You can deploy this version in the following ways.
Server
- As a stand-alone fresh installation.
- As a stand-alone installation by selecting Use existing databases or Empty databases, if you already have CDM database(s) from previous versions and a known encryption key. If you do not remember your encryption key, you can obtain it using the Get Encryption Key utility provided with this release being run on the previous version of CDM prior to uninstalling it, or from Certent CDM Support. You can also use a previously exported key by directly selecting it in the installer instead of typing it down.
- As an upgrade from 20.3.1 or later.
- If you are using XBRL or Inline XBRL, you should deploy/update Arelle on the same box with the CDM Server that is provided alongside the CDM installers.
- The XBRL Dependencies package has been discontinued.
- If the upgrade was done without this step, please check KB - Misc Arelle Errors to address any issues caused by Arelle additional files.
Client
- As a stand-alone fresh installation.
- As an update over previous versions of the Certent CDM Client.
- Supports multiple client instances on the same box.
ClickOnce
- As a stand-alone fresh installation.
- As an update over previous versions of the Certent CDM publishing server.
- Due to the change from 32-bit to 64-bit of the Certent CDM Client, previously installed client via ClickOnce will not be automatically upgraded upon start up. You should remove and redeploy the client when upgrading from a version earlier than 20.3.1.
- Remove Certent CDM from Programs and Features.
- Access the publishing server URL.
- Click the Install button.
