beas version number has the same configuration like the SAP B1 version number:
beas x (c.c.c) PL: pp HF: f[-h] [BETA] [DataBase]
| 项目 | 说明 |
|---|---|
| x | SAP Business One SAP Mayor and SAP Minor Release z.B. "9.1" |
| c.c.c | internal compilation number |
| pp | beas Patch Number. Usually, all 4-6 weeks a new patch is released |
| f | Hotfix. After release of a patch hotfixes are delivered in critical cases. Displayed only for hotfixes |
| -h | For Hana-versions another Hoftix-number is displayed, if there was a correction to a Hotfix |
| DataBase | MSSQL: not displayed HANA: "for Hana" is displayed |
| BETA | "BETA" only displayed, if this patch level is still in development |
SAP Business One 和 beas 的组合总是指当前发布的SAP Business One的补丁或 beas 组件.
| SAP 版本 | beas 起始版本 |
|---|---|
| SAP B1 9.1 | beas 9.0 PL: 04 |
| SAP B1 9.2 | Additional information The release is planned 2-3 weeks after the release of SAP B1 9.2 Version. Not all new functions will be supported from the beginning. For example: Number of allowed characters in item number and other fields SAP B1 Browser - Version We did not find any compatibility issues related to current functions. We cannot test every version of SAP B1 and we cannot guarantee that all functions will be supported. |

- 版本状态: Beta-Version, Released Version, Supported Version, unsupported Version, Customer Version
A version defines a certain patch level, eg. beas 9.1 PL: 5 A version may be subdivided into Hotfixes, which do not contain program extensions eg. beas 9.1 PL: 5 HF: 1
From start of development, quality is checked based on tickets. You may request a BETA Version, but it is not allowed to run it in productive environment. One week before release (3-5 weeks) the development is finished, a one week extended quality check is performed. From this time, the development of the next version starts.
After successfully completion of quality checks the version is released. It receives then the version umber: 9.1 (c.c.c) PL: x Usually, all 4-6 weeks a new version is made available.
If severe errors are found after release, a Hotfix is created and release. New functions or extensions are generally not included into a Released Version. Characteristics of severe errors:
- reproducible at several clients
- can not be avoided using work around
- productive use is impossible for several clients There is no release process for a Hotfix. Only changes are checked..
As soon a new version receives the status "Released Version", the preceding patch level receives the status "Supported Version". This means, for this version, full support is provided. Hotfixes for this version are with costs.
A beas - version is always compatible with a SAP Business One version (siehe Compatibility of beas with SAP Business One). If SAP terminates the support of a SAP Business One - version, the beas - version receives the status "unsupported Version". Then, the claim of free support expires.
A customer version is a copy of a "Supported Version" or a "Released - Version". These are created, in case the customer wishes an extensions and does not want to switch to the next Released Version for Quality control reasons and if his requirement cannot be met by customizing. Delivery of a Customer Version is liable to costs. A Customer Version is available during the maintenance period of the compatible SAP Business One - version or until the clients does not need it anymore. Support of customer versions is generally with costs. Development needs to be done twice: In Customer Version and in the BETA Version. The additional effort is charged.
A copy of the currently installed version with last Hotfix is created. In our example: beas 9.1 PL: 05 HF: 4-x for customer z This copy is tracked by the Source Control System of company beas, every change is logge. The copy is active until the customer switches to a newer Released Version. Extensions are included to both the BETA Version and the Customer Version.
Additionally arising effort: 8 hrs. setup (once) 2 hrs. per compilation process and creation of the installation file plus additional effort for double programming in 2 versions in parallel
Claim for maintenance refers only to the Released Version and to the Supported Version in combination with the currently released SAP Business One - Version (see Compatibility). Support for Unsupported Versions is always liable to costs, the analysis as well.
If a correction or extensions of the program is required, this will be delivered only in the BETA Version. Only in critical cases a Hotfix is delivered for the Released Version. A Hotfix for a Supported Version is always liable to costs, it is delivered only for the last Hotfix of this version.
Example: Installed beas 9.1 PL: 5 HF: 01 Last Hotfix beas 9.1 PL: 5 HF: 04 Released Version beas 9.1 PL: 06 BETA Version beas 9.1 PL: 07
If a problem is reported in beas 9.1 PL: 05 there are possible solutions:
- Check, if there is already a Hotfix in PL: 05. If yes, update to this Hotfix.
- Check, if there is a solution in PL: 06. If yes, update to PL: 06
- If update is impossible, check for work around.
- If work around is impossible, check if a Hotfix can be created for PL: 05. If yes, an offer is created. If we receive an order for this correction, it will be made based on beas 9.1 PL: 05 HF: 4, the version delivered will be beas 9.1 PL: 05 HF: 5
For Customizations after the acceptance of the extension any support is liable to costs, starting from analysis. There is no claim for compatibility with future versions.
If a client requests an extension, we try to realize this via Customizing. There is no claim for support of this extension. If it is impossible to realize the extensions by customizing, it will be included into the standard solution. The extension will be available in the next Released Version.
If the customer is unable to perform an update, the extension can be realized in a Customer Version. There is no claim of realization of desired customized extensions.
To keep the program as simple as possible, only very few new features are included. Existing functions are continuously improved, new functions of SAP Business One are integrated.
New planned functions are pre-announced. In which version this function will be available, will be announced shortly before.
