Why is it that Seibel is not supported in 8.0.0,8.1.x and supported in 8.0.1? Can we use 8.0.2 for the Seibel Analysis?
James Hurrell
Hello,
Ref 8.0.0 - I think there was a bug in this release which prevented the use of the Siebel extension (and also the PeopleSoft extension), which was corrected in 8.0.1.
I will check with R&D about 8.0.2, but I believe it is possible.
Ref use with 8.1.x - I believe that it is not been fully tested and therefore it is currently unsupported.
