# Update knowledge base version

Zilliant CPQ ensures that you work with the latest version of configurable products. When you open a quote or work with a template, the system displays a prompt if a new knowledge base version is available.

In SSC cases, knowledge base update checks align with standard SSC behavior for configurable products and children configurations:

- SSC architecture applies update checks to configurable products that you've manually added to line items, and to manually created parent-child relations between two configurable products.
- In SSC integrations with ERP variant configuration, child products are controlled by parent KMATs. They always carry the parent's knowledge base version, ensuring consistent knowledge base use.

### Enable prompts about knowledge base updates

1. From the application left navigation area, select **Administration**.
2. Scroll or search to locate **Setting Boolean** and select it from the list.
3. Select **Check if new KB version available before quote open**.
4. Set the **Setting Value Boolean** switch to **YES**.

          Tip

          

If you disable prompts about knowledge base updates, you can run the [presubmission check](/docs/run-presubmission-checks) on quotes to check for new knowledge base versions.
