Some of the data fields are already filled in. Please check those fields again.

 

EditVersion_General

 

Add the LICENSE (in case the licensing stays the same for all versions of the product, use the Same as parent checkbox) of the version, as well as the RELEASE DATE, END OF LIFE date, and EXTENDED SUPPORT date for this version. Adding these information might need a careful investigation of the version.

 

RELEASE DATE - the date the current version has officially been released.

END OF LIFE - the date when "all" support for the version will be stopped. For example, the End of Support as defined by Microsoft.

EXTENDED SUPPORT - the date when general support will be stopped, but some types of updates might still be made available. For example, the End of Servicing as defined by Microsoft.

Enter at least the main function of the software using the FUNCTIONS field (it is possible to add multiple functions).

The COMMENTS field offers place for comments about the product, the function, or further licensing information.
