Administering Cloud EPM: The Platform Beneath the Business Processes · Module 10 · Clients and Tools

Prerequisites and version support

Lesson 114 of 201 · 1 min

Smart View comes from a download location distinct from the environment's Downloads page. Small thing. It confuses people every time. THE CURRENT RELEASE AND ONE PRIOR ARE SUPPORTED AGAINST A GIVEN PLATFORM UPDATE. Which means a client version more than two releases behind is UNSUPPORTED. And the platform updates monthly. CLIENT UPDATES ARE A RECURRING TASK, NOT A ONE-TIME DEPLOYMENT. Build it into the operating calendar in Module 13. That sentence is the whole operational content of this lesson, and it is the thing estates get wrong for years at a time. Platform and Office requirements, and where the current compatibility matrix lives. Check rather than memorize. The extension sequencing rule. Install the base client, then extensions. Close Office applications first. This is trivial, and it is the cause of a great many failed installations.
