Second value is the latest iteration of the file on the server. For example, the latest verison of the motherboard is C.0 and for the computer assembly it s C.1. Gray iteration values indicate the referenced version matches the latest available version of the file on the server. Bold black iteration values indicate the referenced iteration (first value) is not the latest version on the file on the server. In the example of the motherboard and the computer assembly, the latest version of the motherboard is the C.0 and the latest version of the computer assembly is C.1. Therefore, the iteration values are all bold black.
