This is quite useful. I wish there was a PDF document that had information of all past versions and continuously updated.
I would find the control version of the AR System database useful to have too in addition to this. This would give the reader/developer a good idea when the structure of the database changed.

Good to have some clarification. On 23 June 2015 at 12:01, Walters, Mark <[email protected]> wrote: ** That's the initial release of 8.1 SP2. There are some later hotfix versions which have a different date and should include the word Hotfix in the version string. Mark From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Dave Barber Sent: 23 June 2015 11:52 To: [email protected] Subject: Version numbering ** Morning all! Just a quick question on version numbers; difficult to get an answer to this for myself on the BMC site at the moment due to issues on our support contract (we have one, but it doesn't seem to list everything). We have some older systems for which "we" (the internal dev team) were responsible and are definitely patched - for example, our 7.6.04 system is running on 7.6.04 SP4. Our v7.5 system is reporting that it is on 7.5.00 Patch 004. We have a newer 8.1 system that has been installed for us by an external provider, which is reporting "8.1.02 201408260235". Going by the "old" version numbering, this looks to be unpatched? Or is it 8.1 patch 02? So just looking for confirmation on version numbering for v8.1 .... (hopefully it isn't too complicated!)
