PTC Technical Support Glossary

PTC has an online glossary that can help with many of the new terms customers will need to know when working with PTC. Below are explanations of a few PTC terms as they relate specifically to NetRegulus customers.

Release
Release is the major version of a PTC software product. Releases are versions where significant enhancements have been made to the software product in order to provide value to maintenance paying customers. New releases are only available to customers with active maintenance contracts.
Datecode
The Datecode is a release identifier. For existing NetRegulus product releases, the Datecode matches the Release identifier.In future releases, the datecode may follow the PTC standard format.
Module
The module is a subcategory for the product referenced in the Technical Support Call. In addition to modules of a specific product, this may also refer to a more specific area of functionality or a designation for a common type of customer issue.
Examples of NetRegulus products, Releases, Datecodes, and Modules:
Product Release Datecode Module
NetRegulus NetRM 7.5.1 7.5.1 CAPA
NetRegulus NetRM 7.5.1 7.5.1 Study Administrator
NetRegulus NetRM 7.4.4 7.4.4 Study Administrator
NetRegulus 6.5 6.5 Console
Service Contract Number (SCN)
The Service Contract Number, or SCN, is a unique identifier to track your purchased maintenance for a PTC product or group of products. A valid SCN is required for all Technical Support services, including opening a Call and downloading software updates.
If you require assistance determining the SCN to use when contacting PTC, contact our Global Maintenance Support team at the Customer Care Contact Information above.
