Hi Pius,

 

Thanks for your comment. When you first launch TBC on your computer, a version update notification is available under your News notifications. Even if you have an older version of TBC installed, a news notification appears with details about new features and enhancements when a new version of TBC is released:

 

Alternatively, you can access release notes on the TBC website here: Trimble Business Center: Bulletins and Updates | Trimble Geospatial

Hi Erin
It would be very useful to see the release notes of the next release before installing it. Sometime it is worse installing a version, better skip a release, when there are no improvements for the tasks used in a company. Updating is always a (little) risk and quite a bit of work.
At least, put a link to the release notes in the newsfeed on the TBC starting page.

Best Regards

Pius
