Field	Description
Upgrade Version	The international Code System's version (the Code System with the incoming)
Code System Version	The dependent Code System's version (the Code System which receives the incoming changes)
Code System ID	The Id of the temporary Code System where the upgrade will be finalized

It is suggested to perform the upgrade on a versioned Code System, for this reason, the Code System Version is always set to the latest extension Code System version. Although, if needed, the non-versioned Code System itself can be selected as well.

4️⃣ A dialog opens after the successful upgrade Code System creation. As it suggests to maintain the newly created Code System restart the Snow Owl client and select the Code System with the formerly defined Code System ID.
