A set of related modules that implements a complete part of the functionality, for example, Enterprise Planning, Financials, or Warehousing. Packages are designed to function as independent as possible, to enable a customer to implement only particular packages.

A package code consists of two characters. For example, tt is the code of the Tools package.

Each package has a unique version structure, the VRC structure.

Language

Report

The identification code of the report. A report is uniquely identified by the combination of package code, module code, report code and language.

VRC

An upgrade of a package, for example, B61. Each change in the functionality of a package results in a new version. A version can contain several releases.

VRC

An update in a version. For example, 'B61 a', where 'B61' represents the version code, and the 'a' represents the release code. Each update results in a new release with a new release code.

VRC
