Overview
SIMATIC Version Trail is a software option for engineering which, 
together with the SIMATIC Logon central user administration, 
can assign a version history to libraries, projects and multi-
projects. It can be used within SIMATIC PCS 7 or also in the con-
text of Totally Integrated Automation with SIMATIC.
Function
When archiving, SIMATIC Version Trail in association with 
SIMATIC Logon creates a version history with the following infor-
mation:
• Version
• Version name
• Date and time
• User
• Comment
This version history can be displayed and printed. Individual ver-
sion releases can be dearchived from the version history and 
used further. SIMATIC Logon organizes the access protection.
The SIMATIC Version Trail is a SIMATIC product which was de-
veloped for the SIMATIC PCS 7 process control system but 
which can also be used together with other SIMATIC products in 
the context of Totally Integrated Automation (TIA). In the case of 
products which can be used in both the SIMATIC PCS 7 and TIA 
environments, the ordering data and type of delivery may differ 
depending on the application. To provide a better overview and 
to avoid faulty ordering, the selection and ordering data of such 
products are therefore listed separately depending on the target 
application.
More information
Upgrade
SIMATIC PCS 7 engineering systems with Engineering Software 
V6.0 or V6.1 can be upgraded to Version 7.0 using the SIMATIC 
PCS 7 Engineering Upgrade Package. A component of this up-
grade package is also the upgrade for SIMATIC Version Trail 
from V6.1 to V7.0. 
For applications outside SIMATIC PCS 7, a separate SIMATIC 
Upgrade Version Trail V7.0 can be obtained for upgrading 
SIMATIC Version Trail V6.1.
For further information, see Chapter "Update/upgrade pack-
ages".
Note
:
Please note that Version Trail cannot be used on its own, but only 
in combination with SIMATIC Logon (see page 2/4).
