Functions and Removed Features

• With version 6.0 we announced to deprecate the ETL functionality with version 7.0. It is still available for the SAP integration, but the XML file extraction and script execution functionalities have been removed. You have to migrate your import process to a Talend import process.
  Notice: If you try to import with your old process, you will see an error stating the "Driver can not be loaded" in the ETL log.
  With version 8.0, the entire ETL functionality will be removed because the SAP integration will not rely on ETL anymore.
• Binary fields have been deprecated, since it is better to keep binary content as document payload (its content is searchable, can be rendered) of an object, so its use in projects was extremely rare. Projects that use the this type will get the receive a deprecation warning about it. The field type will be removed with the next major version of yuuvis® RAD.

...

• The deprecated functional rights "Assign global roles" and "Edit roles related to global domain" have been removed. The These rights will be automatically removed from the server during an update to version 7.0, and . and they will no longer be included in  system snapshots created from an updated server no longer contain them, but . However, they may be present still exist in older projects that exist in local filesystemlocated on local filesystems. In case that they are still present and an administrator attempts to activate such schemaschemas, the schema and roleset role set validation will show an error - error – they must be removed from the rights system prior to activating the schema and roleset role set in a yuuvis® RAD 7.0 system or later (or a snapshot of an already updated system should be taken , in order to obtain create a project without these rights).
• BPM Script: the deprecated script property process.responsible was has been removed. It was had been deprecated with the introduction of process.owners, that which can also be also changed (unlike process.responsible that which was read-only).
