EWS EVAL Release 15 is Now Available

December 1, 2022

Enterprise Web Services (EWS) has released an update in EVAL for multiple web services in support of UW Finance Transformation (UWFT). For an overview of how EWS is adapting to support UWFT, refer to EWS for Finance Transformation.

Monthly Scheduled Releases

  • EVAL: Updates to EVAL environments for all EWS services are released on the same monthly schedule. This allows us to better synchronize with Enterprise Data Platform’s release schedule for Finance Transformation. For more information, refer to the Data Availability Timeline.
  • PROD: Updates to PROD environments for all EWS services now reflect changes from the previous month’s EVAL release (for example, if EVAL reflects Release R15, then PROD will reflect Release R14).
