If you upgraded to LTS 2026 (version 2026.3.1.1 or later) and noticed that the Revision # Tested On column in your Test Completion reports now shows decimal values instead of plain revision numbers, this is an intentional design change, not a data error.
Understanding what changed
LTS 2026 introduced an enhancement that allows multiple documents to be attached to a single test. To support this, the Revision # Tested On column now displays values in the format:
DocumentID.Revision
The number before the decimal point is the Document ID, and the number after the decimal point is the revision number of that document. This format allows each revision shown in the report to be clearly linked back to the specific document it belongs to, even when a test has more than one document attached.
| Value shown | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 496.17 | Document ID 496, Revision 17 |
| 507.8 | Document ID 507, Revision 8 |
| 508.5 | Document ID 508, Revision 5 |
Important: These values are not version numbers or corrupted revision data. Before this enhancement, the column only ever needed to show a single revision number, since a test could only be linked to one document. Now that multiple documents can be attached to a single test, the Document ID is included to remove any ambiguity about which document each revision number refers to.
Understanding tests with only one document attached
This format applies uniformly, even for tests that only have a single document attached — where the Document ID prefix is not strictly necessary to avoid ambiguity. If you would prefer the column to show just the plain revision number in this case, consistent with pre-upgrade behaviour, this has been raised with the product team as potential feedback for a future refinement.
Tip: If this format is causing confusion or disruption to an existing process — such as an automated competency-verification check that expects a plain revision number — let Ideagen Support know. Feedback on whether the current format works for your process, or whether you would prefer the column to simplify to a plain revision number when only one document is attached, helps inform whether further refinement is made to this feature.
