September 25 Release (V19)
Announcing the Fusion V19 Release📢
We’re excited to introduce Fusion V19, packed with powerful enhancements to make your workflows faster, smarter, and more efficient. This release focuses on performance improvements, better control for Designers, and a more seamless runtime experience.
These updates are designed to help you work faster, reduce manual effort, and ensure Fusion continues to scale with your needs.
Take a look below to explore what’s new in Fusion V19 and get the latest version here!
New Feature ➕
Preloaded Grids – Faster App Runs with Static Data Optimization
You can now preload static master data to speed up app load times and improve performance. This feature skips fetching data that rarely changes—reducing wait time during runtime. This feature streamlines your workflow by handling static data upfront, reducing extra querying and display steps so you can work faster.
Preload Grid Options
Configure the number of rows to preload with two options:
Static Record Count – Preload a set number of blank rows (e.g., 10, 50, 100) as placeholders to speed up initial loading when actual records aren’t required immediately.
Record Based on Query – Preload data using an existing query from the same object. For example, if you're working with an Account grid, only queries related to the Account object will be available.
Clearing the configuration removes all preloaded grid configuration and grid indicators.
Preloaded Grid Options Visual Indicators
A green “P” label
displays next to a Map name in the list if it has a preloaded grid.A green tick
appears next to the Preload Grid Options button when a preloaded grid is configured.
Resync Preloaded Grid Data
A new “Resync” button lets you refresh the grid with the latest data without saving the entire Map.
Preloading is triggered only when changes are made, such as:
Adding or removing fields
Updating records
Rearranging fields

New Enhancements ✨
Multi Picklist Filters – Support for Multi-Value Selection
Fusion now supports multi-value selection for multi picklist fields using the Equal and Not Equal operators. This allows more accurate filtering of records with multiple values.
Enhancements:
Multi select enabled using checkboxes in filter configuration.
Selected values appear in the input field, with compact display if selections exceed the visual limit.
Filters auto-apply in Excel. Users can also enter values manually using semicolon-separated format.
Records with invalid values or incorrect formatting will not be saved.
Valid multi picklist values are saved in alphabetical order, regardless of the order entered by the user.
This enhancement improves the accuracy and usability of filters involving multi-picklist fields in both design and runtime.
'No Message' Option in Skip Summary
Designers now have more control over skip messages during Delete Tasks. A new ‘No Message’ option in the Skip Summary Configurator allows you to completely suppress runtime messages for skipped records.
It is Available in Add and Delete Tasks (Design Studio) Improvements:
‘No Message’ can now be selected for Delete Task.
Default Message Style Word count indicator has been removed for a cleaner UI.
When Default Message Style is selected, the message field is now disabled (grayed out) and cannot be edited.
Scrollbar Support in Macro Task Window
A vertical scrollbar has been added to the Macro Task UI to improve visibility across all screen resolutions. This ensures all checkboxes and task options remain accessible—no matter your display settings.
Display and Save Task – Easier Map Selection
We’ve improved the Display and Save Task Properties to make map selection more relevant and easier to navigate:
By default, you’ll only see maps related to your current workflow.
Now, a new “Show More Maps” button lets you view all other maps if needed.
Maps are now listed alphabetically, making it easier to find the one you need. For first-time access, however, maps will appear in the original screen order (the order in which they were created).
Fusion Runtime: Enhanced Cache Management
We’ve made improvements to cache management in Settings > Runtime Cache by introducing clearer options and giving you more control over your environment.
Clear Runtime Files (previously Purge Cache) lets you manually delete downloaded app files stored on your computer. Normally, these files are managed automatically and retained for 30–60 days, but you now have the option to clear them whenever needed.
Clear Cache is a new option that removes user metadata related to Salesforce, along with some Valorx details (such as AutoUpdate settings or version update windows). This ensures that you always receive fresh data directly from Salesforce and Valorx.
Together, these enhancements provide smoother performance, greater flexibility, and improved control over your runtime environment.
Faster Export for Document Tasks
We’ve significantly improved the performance of document exports. Export time now scales based on the number of records, quote lines, or services in each sheet, rather than the number of sheets selected. This means even large exports run faster and more efficiently.
Small exports (10+ records) complete in nearly half the time.
Medium exports (10,000+ records) are up to 41% faster.
Large exports (50,000+ records) are up to 33% faster.
With this enhancement, quotes containing a high volume of services can now be exported in minutes instead of much longer wait times.
Automatic Update Policy (Starting V18.4)
Starting with V18.4, Fusion introduces quality-of-life improvements for automatic updates. Previously, users were prompted in Valorx Home when updates were available and could install them manually by clicking “Update Now.” This behavior will remain the same for future releases.
With the added improvements, Fusion will now automatically detect stable updates and apply them after 30 days if they are not installed manually.
This policy applies to all customers using Fusion V18.4 and later and is enabled by default. Customers may request to opt out by contacting [email protected].
For full details, please review our Fusion Auto Update Policy.
Versioning Lifecycle Policy
We’ve introduced a Versioning Lifecycle Policy to clearly define support and upgrade paths across Valorx versions.
Latest Supported Version (LSV): The most recent release and the previous three versions receive full support.
Oldest Supported Version (OSV): The minimum supported version continues to receive limited support.
End-of-Life (EOL): Versions older than the OSV are no longer supported and require an upgrade.
This approach ensures customers have flexibility while maintaining stability and security across all supported versions.
Premier Support Subscription Validation
We’ve made it easier for our Premier Support customers to access advanced tools.
Users with an active Premier Support subscription can now enjoy direct access to the Diagnostic Logs tab.
For customers without Premier Support, the tab will stay out of view to keep the experience simple and focused.
This update ensures a smoother, more tailored experience for every user.
Data Modeling Cleanup
Designers can now streamline their apps by quickly removing unused fields from the data modeling. A new ‘Cleanup Field’ option scans all objects and fields, identifies unused elements, and allows one-click removal. It is Available in Data Modeling (Design Studio). This enhancement reduces manual cleanup and ensures smoother app performance.
App Setting to Store Runtime Files in OneDrive
Fusion now lets you store Runtime files in OneDrive through a new App-Level setting in Design Studio. Files are saved in a “Valorx Fusion” folder and auto-deleted when Excel closes. This enables Microsoft Co-Pilot in Excel, with added benefits of collaboration, backup, and security.
Named Range Support for Document Task Filenames
Fusion now supports Named Ranges for filename references in Document Tasks, offering a more reliable alternative to static cell references. This ensures workbook references remain stable even when worksheet structures change.
Conditional Filter for Clear Task
A new Conditional Filter option is available in Clear All mode, aligning with Delete Tasks. Clear operations now only run when conditions are met, preventing unintended data clearing and giving Designers greater control.
Ready to speed things up and streamline your workflow? Update to Fusion V19 today and take advantage of the latest enhancements. As always, we’re here to support you. Happy building!
Mac v48 Updates
Copy Option in App Logs
Mac users can now easily copy App Logs directly from the app for troubleshooting and support.
New “Copy Logs” button in App Logs workflow.
Instantly copies logs to clipboard for sharing or saving.
Toast message confirmation: “Log copied to clipboard.”
This improvement simplifies issue reporting and speeds up communication with support teams.
Salesforce List Views
We’ve introduced Salesforce List Views in Express Mode to make creating grids faster and easier.
When you create a grid, you now have two choices:
Salesforce Views – Pick an existing list view from Salesforce. The grid will be created with the same fields and filters from that view. You can still add or remove fields if you want. This won’t affect the original Salesforce view.
Fields – Build your grid from scratch by choosing fields manually, just like before.
After your grid is created, you can refresh it with the latest Salesforce data, make edits, or delete it from the “This File” section.
This makes it much faster to set up a grid, especially if you already use Salesforce list views.
This enhancement makes grid creation faster and smoother, while still giving you the flexibility to customize when needed.
With these updates, Fusion Mac users can troubleshoot more effectively and build grids with greater speed and flexibility.
