Release notes

Release notes play a vital role in the overall product experience, as they provide key information to Paymentology's clients. This key information includes new feature releases, additional and enhanced functionality, platform improvements and updates on back-end fixes.

This guide provides you with details on how we communicate, structure and categorize our Banking.Live release notes.

Communication and structure of release notes

Banking.Live release notes are published here.

These release notes are emailed to clients and published upon the successful release of the version to the Banking.Live UAT environment. This version is then released to the production environment approximately three weeks later.

❕
You should be aware of the Banking.Live version you are running. If you are not, please consult your Client Executive.

Categorization of release notes

Paymentology prioritze release notes into three categories:

Testing release items

Once a release has been deployed onto Banking.Live UAT, clients can choose to test specific items related to their product

Prior to the release onto Banking.Live UAT, Paymentology's Quality Assurance (QA) Team performs rigorous testing on the released items. It is only once a release item has been successfully tested by the QA Team that it will be added to the UAT release list.
