LTS Release | An LTS Release is a Major Release that PCR will support for |
12 at least 24+ months. All other releases are supported for two release cycles. LTS Releases will be patched (as a hotfix) for any Critical or High-Impact bugs applied after a release. These include (but are not limited to): service-impacting issues, billing issues, or charge-related bugs. These issues have no workaround, or the workaround is cumbersome. LTS Releases are intended to relieve “Upgrade Fatigue” for Customers who may not need all of the latest features but need critical bugs fixed. Once the |
12-month LTS time period has elapsed, PCR will work with customers to move them to the next LTS release.
Once an LTS reaches the last few months of support, it will receive only critical fixes and security patches. | Major Release | Major releases consist of new features and some bug fixes. These features have a relatively large scope with a greater impact on development and testing, e.g. Accounts Receivable, Service Desk Archiving, Work Order, etc |
. There will be three feature & bug-fix releases in a given year. | Minor Release | Minor releases consist mostly of bug fixes and occasionally minor enhancements to the application. Minor enhancements are relatively small changes with a low impact on development and testing, e.g. adding a column to a grid, a new field, or tweaking the API. The specification process will occur in at least the month prior to being assigned. The specification process will occur in tandem with the traditional development and testing cycle. |
