Upgrade Considerations

TopicInformation
Equifax Direct ACRO API migration to the cloud Customers using this integration will need to register for a new set of credentials (username, password) with Equifax through their developer portal: http://developer.equifax.com/ 
Credco Employer Name MissingPreviously when running a report via Credco, the app expected each employer to have a name regardless of if one was provided. This could cause the report to fail if one was not provided in the report. This update resolves that issue by providing an alternate name when one cannot be found.
General Security ImprovementsPotential security vulnerabilities such as cross-site scripting and SOQL injection have been resolved.
