WHODrug Versions
WHODrug releases new versions of the dictionary twice per year: March and September. Veeva updates the Vault Safety WHODrug dictionary within 30 days of the WHODrug release date. Vault names dictionary versions in the format of GLOBALC3{Date}, where {Date} is the release date.
If you are using a version of the dictionary that becomes out-of-date and unavailable, you must update to a newer version.

Sync List of Available WHODrug Versions
If your Vault has the latest Active Version control on the layout, you can see when the list of versions on your Vault is out-of-sync with the latest WHODrug releases.
The field will display the following message when your Vault is out-of-sync:
“The list of available WHODrug versions is out of sync with the server. Please sync the WHODrug versions to update the list.”
If this occurs, you can use the Fetch WHODrug Releases action from the All Actions menu to update the list of available versions.
