Version compatibility of DS and BIP 4.0?

[Former Member]

We currently have DS 4.0 SP2 with CMS on BIP 4.0 SP2. A problem with charts means that we have to upgrade CMS to BIP 4.0 SP4 or SP5. In the past we have experienced lots of problems with version compatibilities between DS and BIP. Does anybody have any input on whether we also need to upgrade DS as part of this upgrade?

Hi,

BI/IPS 4.0  SP4 and SP5 or higher compatible patches are compatable with  DS 4.0 SP3 and higher patches.
