Retail Pro International is pleased to announce the updated listing for both generations of Retail Pro (9.2 and 8.6) on the validated payment applications list maintained by the PCI Security Standards Council.
 
Retail Pro 9.2 has been validated against the PA-DSS 2.0 requirements. As such it is available for both new and existing deployments to Retail Pro customers. Retail Pro 9.2 will adhere to the PA-DSS 2.0 requirements and remain valid for new and existing deployments until October 28, 2016, the expiration date associated with the PA-DSS 2.0 requirements.
 
Retail Pro 8.6 has been validated against the PA-DSS 1.2 requirements. As such it is also available for both new and existing deployments to Retail Pro customers, but does have a different expiry date than that of Retail Pro 9.2. Retail Pro 8.6 will remain valid under the PA-DSS 1.2 requirements until October 28, 2013, the expiration date for the PA-DSS 1.2 requirements. At such time Retail Pro 8.6 will be required to revalidate under the PA-DSS 2.0 requirements.
