Wiise AppSource Compliance Update 

Overview:

  • Learn about Wiise AppSource Compliance Update

Note: 

  • This is a technical compliance update only.

  • There are no functional, user interface, or data changes. 

  • This feature is available in Business Central Version 27.3 and from Wiise app version 27.3.3.0 
  • Your IT Administrator will need to install the latest Wiise app updates. 

Why is this update required?

Wiise is releasing an update to comply with Microsoft AppSource validation requirements in the March 2026 release.  

This update introduces internal technical changes across the Wiise Base App, Wiise Australia App and Wiise New Zealand App to meet Microsoft naming and publishing standards. 

These changes include updates to internal object names, namespaces, and permission sets used by Wiise extensions. 

Note: Customers and partners who have built customisations, extensions, or integrations on top of Wiise will be directly impacted by this release and must test their solutions in sandbox before upgrading their production environment. 

 

✅  What is NOT changing 

  • No changes to functionality 
  • No changes to the user interface 
  • No data loss or migration required 
  • No end-user training required 

⚠️  What IS changing (Technical Changes) 

  • Internal object and field names renamed with a KBIZ prefix 
  • Namespace reorganisation 
  • Permission set names updated 
  • Breaking changes for dependent extensions 

Note: These changes primarily affect partners and customers who have built customisations or integrations on top of Wiise 

 

Why the Wiise AppSource Compliance Update?

Microsoft requires all applications published on Microsoft AppSource to follow strict naming conventions and structural standards.

These rules ensure:

  • Unique naming across the Microsoft ecosystem

  • No conflicts between extensions from different vendors

  • Long term platform stability and maintainability

This update brings Wiise into alignment with these AppSource requirements.

 

Scope of Changes 

During validation, Microsoft identified over 1,169 AppSource compliance issues that required updates. To resolve these, Wiise has updated internal identifiers across the Wiise Base App, Wiise Australia App, and Wiise New Zealand App.

Note: These updates affect only the internal code structure, not how the system works for users.

Who needs to take action? 

This update may impact different groups in different ways. Use the guidance below to determine whether action is required for your business.

Select the option that best matches your role:


End Users 

Note: No action is required

Note: Administrators will also need to reassign users to the new permission sets introduced in this update. 

 

Partners and Customers with Customisations 

Note: Action required

Customers with custom solutions or external integrations should validate their environment before upgrading to production.

Please refer to the following sections for guidance when assisting customers who have customisations:

Tip: Even though functionality is unchanged, sandbox testing ensures your environment continues to operate as expected.

  • AL extensions built on the Wiise Base App 
  • Partner add ons or vertical solutions 
  • Power Automate flows referencing Wiise fields

  2. Update references to the new KBIZ prefixed identifiers 
  3. Update namespace references 
  4. Update permission set references 
    1. Wiise AU to KBIZ AU naming

Note for Partners: Please communicate your extension readiness timeline to your customer before they schedule their production upgrade 

 

High Risk Areas to Test 

You’ll need to prioritise testing in the following areas: 

  1. Approval workflows 
  2. Wiise Custom Fields (UDF) 
  3. Power BI integrations 
  4. EFT integrations 
  5. Role Centre panels 
  6. Permission Set Renaming

    4. EFT integrations

    5. Role Centre panels
