In Encompass, go to Help > About Encompass in the menu bar to view your Encompass version. Once the client-side update is applied, your new version number will be 21.1.0.4 Server Patch 2.

System Requirements and SDK Upgrade Requirement for Encompass

Have you reviewed the latest System Requirements?

Before downloading or applying this new Encompass release, it is important to verify the latest system requirements for Encompass client machines. Please review the System Requirements for Encompass to ensure your environment meets the requirements needed to operate Encompass successfully.

The Encompass SDK (Encompass Software Development Kit) has been repackaged with this 21.1 April Service Pack release. Although it is not required, it is recommended that you upgrade to this latest SDK delivered with this update to ensure the same functionality that is in this latest version of Encompass is also available in your SDK. If your SDK application utilizes the Encompass SmartClient, you can automate this process so the SDK is upgraded automatically every time you apply an Encompass release. If your SDK application is installed on a computer at your location, you must manually upgrade the SDK for every release. For instructions for automating the upgrade process or manually upgrading the SDK, refer to the Upgrading the Encompass SDK page or view the SDK Programmer’s Guide.

Visit the Encompass SDK Install Files page to access the latest SDK install files.
