Contents[Hide]

1. Overview

This article explains the Dundas BI versioning convention and where to find your Dundas BI version number.

2. Dundas BI Versions

All versions of Dundas BI are specified with four numbers (A, B, C and D) in the following format:

2.1. Major versions

A major release generally contains a wide range of new features in addition to all defect fixes addressed since the previous major release.

Examples: version 2.0, version 2.5, version 2.6

2.2. Minor versions

A minor release generally includes all defect fixes since the last minor release, and potentially a small number of new features.

Examples: version 7.0.1, version 7.0.2

2.3. Revision versions

A major or minor release may appear with a Revision number attached. A revision version is a replacement version for a major/minor release which generally incorporates a small number of high priority defect fixes.

Example: version 7.0.2.1006
