Software lifecycle policy and Continia Finance on-premises

Continia provides ongoing servicing and support of all Continia Finance on-premises releases for at least 18 months after each release date. This includes security updates, bug fixes, new features, partner support, and access to online resources including Continia Docs. However, note that all online resources are based on the latest version of Continia Finance, meaning that older functionality that has been changed, replaced, or deleted in the meantime is unlikely to be covered. For more information on the various types of support provided by Continia, see Resources for Help and Support.

All Continia code, including bug fixes, is released for RTM versions of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, not for cumulative Microsoft updates. If you're interested in implementing a specific bug fix, you must install the service pack that it's part of, as individual patches and bug fixes can't be provided separately. Service packs are released frequently to keep your software up to date and fully functional, and we strongly recommend that you always stay current by installing the latest service packs. For information on how to do so, see How to Implement a Service Pack.

Releases

New major versions of all Continia solutions are released twice a year, on April 1 and October 1, in alignment with the Business Central online release schedule. Whenever Microsoft releases a major version of Business Central online, Continia aims to release all online apps on the same day. On-premises versions are released within two weeks after each Business Central online release.

One to two weeks before each major release, a full preview version is released for the Business Central online sandbox environments.

Hinweis

Starting with Continia Finance 2025 R2 (27.00), the latest version of Continia Finance will only be compatible with the latest version of Business Central. However, service packs will continue to be released for the three latest versions of Continia Finance.
