Legacy Avalara Integration No Longer Working (7.052 or older)

Overview On September 26, 2022, we were notified by Stone Edge users that Avalara was returning an authentication error for Stone Edge users on the old integration. This includes any version older than 7.052 and versions 7.701-7.723. This is because the prior versions use a legacy integration that Avalara no longer supports.

Microsoft Ending Support of Internet Explorer

Internet Explorer 11 Internet Explorer has been around since the year 1995 and on October 17, 2013, Internet Explorer 11 was released, which was the last major version of Internet Explorer. Starting June 15, 2022, Internet Explorer 11 will not be supported for certain versions of Windows 10.  Microsoft plans to move its users to Microsoft Edge as it boasts more features and better security. Updates with Stone Edge Stone Edge previously used Internet Explorer to open any web connection from Stone Edge. Starting with version 7.729, Stone Edge has been updated to use the default browser located within your Windows settings. What if I have an Older Operating System? True the end of Internet Explorer 11 will mostly affect Windows 10 users at the time of writing this, however that does not mean other operating systems will not be affected. Even if you can still access Internet Explorer on older operating systems the majority of Microsoft’s technical support is for Windows 10 and 11.

IE Mode, or Internet [...]

Depreciation of Less Secure Apps for Google

Less Secure Apps for Google Stone Edge is compatible with Google email accounts by enabling “Less Secure Apps.” As of May 30, 2022, “Less Secure Apps” will be depreciated and unavailable. Google Workspace has an extended date yet to be determined but will be announced on the Google Workspace Blog. Once “Less Secure Apps” becomes unusable, Stone Edge will no longer be able to use SMTP for Google emails. What does this mean for Stone Edge? There are essentially two solutions to this issue.
