This version has delivered the following issues

Import contacts and emails 

• An email import operation failed with an error “The resource cannot be processed, Comm_ChanneliD – Error – Invalid data”.   
• The Comm_Organizer value of an imported email was set to the system administrator (1) and not to the user who performed the email import.
• No territory was assigned to the imported emails.
• The Comm_Type value of imported emails was erroneously set to Task.
• When you imported an email whose To field contained two or more email addresses, only the first email address was imported.
• When you imported an email, the email’s territory was unexpectedly set to None.

Cases, Customization, Integration

• When you created an order that had custom entity records linked, the create operation failed with an error “Invalid Date Time”.

Quick Find, Search

• Your search returned no results, even though there were records that satisfied your search criteria. This issue occurred when the format in the region settings in Windows was set to Chinese (Traditional Hong Kong SAR).

Reports

• Thai or Chinese characters appeared as number signs (#) in reports exported to PDF.
