1 About the Release Notes

The Release Notes describe the enhancements and issues fixed in the current minor release. For enhancements and fixes from past releases, see the Change Log. For information about the general release cadence, see the Release Schedule.

The guide also explains how to access the Known Issues list and provides information about system requirements, the Product Verification Pack (PVP), and the Release Implementation Assessment (RIA) document.

After the first patch is applied to a minor release, the Patch Log is added at the top of the table of contents. For each patch to that minor release, the Patch Log describes the issues fixed and, if applicable, the enhancements included. After Clinical One Cloud Service is upgraded to the next minor release, the Patch Log and the What's new and Fixed issues sections for the previous release are moved to the Change Log.

See the Revision history for updates applied to the Release Notes.
