You can rate the compatibility of your applications, installation packages, or websites, based on whether they run successfully on a 32-bit or 64-bit operating system. Your rating applies to your entire organization and is based on your own testing results and organizational requirements.
Possible ratings include:
- Works. During your organization's
testing phase, there were no issues with the application,
installation package, or website.
- Works with minor issues or has
solutions. During your organization's testing phase, there were
no Severity 1 or Severity 2 issues with the application,
installation package, or website. For information about severity
levels, see Adding or Editing an
Issue.
- Does not work. During your
organization's testing phase, the application, installation
package, or website experienced a Severity 1 or Severity 2
issue.
- No data. You have no compatibility
data to provide.
Selecting a Compatibility Rating
You can select your compatibility rating from the report screen or from the associated dialog box that shows report details. As an example, the following procedures use the <Operating_System> - Application Report screen. You can alternatively use the <Application_Name> dialog box. The procedure is the same on the report for websites.
To select your compatibility rating

On the <Operating_System> - Application Report screen, click the application name.

Choose your ratings. Select separate ratings for 32-bit operating systems and 64-bit operating systems, and then click OK.
If your organization does not use a 32-bit operating system, or does not use a 64-bit operating system, you can hide the option in the Customize Report Views dialog box. If you hide the option, the associated column no longer appears in the Set Assessment dialog box.
