Compatible patch levels of Microsoft EPM solutions

TPG VersionChecker - assure user acceptance and more

TPG VersionChecker resolves a problem that administrators frequently encounter. If project managers with a Microsoft Enterprise Project Management (EPM) solution try to access a Project Server with a certain update status from their Project Client with an incompatible update status, there is a danger that the program will crash and that erroneous or corrupt data will be left on the system. This can make users hesitant to access the server and increases the administrator’s workload when the problem arises.

Issues due to automatically installed service packs

The incompatibility issue may be due to service packs that were installed automatically on the Microsoft Project Professional client or to new client installations by users.

Check for compatibility right from the MS Project Client boot

When Microsoft Project Professional starts, the TPG VersionChecker verifies the updates installed on the Project client and server. If it detects a critical combination of updates, it stops the client from opening the program. Instead, it displays a configurable message and gives the user advice on how to solve the problem.
