Version Details

ZenQMS comprises a microservice architecture that breaks up large functions into smaller services. This reduces risk in the development and release process. As such this flagship release version is actually comprised of the releases of the individual services components. It is entirely possible for a component service to not change versions in a release cycle even if other components do. Here is the summary for this release.

ZenQMS Release 2020.2P1 contains the following “FixVersions”.  We use FixVersion as an internal versioning scheme for our modules/services and maintain them in Jira.

Updated Modules:

• CCM 3.1 - Change Control Module
• IM 2.1 - Issues Module
• TM 2.1 Tasks Module
• PDF 2.1 - PDF generation service

Unchanged Modules:

• Reports 2.1 - Reports Module
• ZENQ 20.0 - Flagship application and all other modules/components that are not Change Control, Issues, Tasks, Reports, or Settings
• AUTH 2.1 - Authorization service

Important Notes:

• This announcement plus the banner announcement in the application to ALL users is our formal announcement for the release.
• Deployment (as always) is handled by the ZenQMS team-- so don't worry!
