Riva CRM 2.4.25 (2011.11.23)

• Manage Attachment Filter Options: Ability to disable attachment support on a per-module basis.  Added an advanced option to disable attachment sync on a per-module basis. 
• Create & Configure a Sync Policy For Exchange or HCL Notes: Ability to make attachment extension filter inclusive or exclusive.  Added ability to specify whether the attachment filter under the "Advanced Options" page is inclusive or exclusive.
• Create & Configure a Sync Policy For Exchange or HCL Notes: Advanced option to disable synchronization of organizations.  If CRM is configured so that organization changes trigger modifications on contacts, the org sync is not needed. 
• Move Emails with "Missing Required Matches" to Source Folder (new default) - Change default email handling for SmartConvert/AssignTo emails that fail required contact/lead matching, email is assigned "Missing Required Matches" and moved back to a source folder ("Inbox" or "Sent Items").  In effect, users will no longer check drop folders for emails that failed to sync due to a lack of matching contacts/leads and Riva will no longer have to try to resync those emails on each sync cycle.

Riva Connections

These features have been added to Riva to support customer-specific requirements. Contact Riva Technical Support to discuss and enable any of these custom changes.

• MSCRM: Added ability to define custom filters.  Added ability to define custom filters using references to XML files.  
• Salesforce:  Added "Add to Outlook" based on related object property.  Opt-in subscription-based contact filtering.  Requires Salesforce customizations. 
• Salesforce:  Added "Private Contact Notes" based on note object.  Ability to store contact notes on a per-user basis. The contact note body is not shared among users.
• Salesforce:  Added support for custom email addresses.  Salesforce only ships with one Email address field on the Contact and none of the Account, customers often add custom fields.  Riva can be configured to easily match based on custom email fields. 
• Oracle On-Demand:  Option to Disable Attendee Syncing.  Advanced option to disable global object ID mapping and attendee syncing.   
• Advanced Option to force back updates on any module.  An advanced option for forcing a sync back to Exchange.  Enabled in cases where the CRM has a custom workflow that may save changes to the CRM before Riva sync to the CRM completes. Since the date/time stamps of the changes are earlier than the full sync poll, new items are not synced back to Exchange as expected.  
• Configure external file references.  Added ability to reference specific values from external files on connection and sync policy advanced options.
