# Roadmap

## The OpenCRVS Use Case Inventory

We often get the question "What does OpenCRVS do?". Beyond the descriptions found in the [functional-architecture](https://documentation.opencrvs.org/product-specifications/functional-architecture "mention") section, we maintain a full inventory of use cases, which will allow you to quickly map existing and future use cases supported by OpenCRVS with your own country requirements.

{% file src="<https://3485090019-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FRziAMaeBMeyiTg5hfFq5%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-db4eb113c6bb58d044bf805901ff1c2b7f264d73%2FOpenCRVS%20Use%20Cases%20Inventory.xlsx?alt=media>" %}

In addition to the functional and integration use cases, a separate tab includes non-functional requirements (NFRs) that we believe are important for national scale civil registration systems, the majority of which OpenCRVS is already compliant with.

## Future release dates

The following table provides an overview of projected delivery dates for future releases, as defined in the Use Case Inventory above.

* The beta release is typically made available after initial QA testing, but before full regression testing has been commenced. It is not intended for live use in a production environment, however it allows accredited implementation partners to test out sample configurations and to contribute to the release testing effort.
* All dates provided are indicative and are subject to change, however OpenCRVS Product Management makes every effort to provide accurate estimates to support implementation planning.

<table><thead><tr><th width="148">Release</th><th>Beta release date</th><th>Full release date</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>v1.8.0</td><td>28 April 2025</td><td>21 July 2025</td></tr><tr><td>v1.9.0</td><td>05 September 2025</td><td>31 October 2025</td></tr><tr><td>v2.0</td><td>30 April 2026</td><td>12 June 2026</td></tr></tbody></table>

\*Date adjusted to include configuration and migration testing beyond the Farajaland default, including country reference implementations to ensure known local contexts are supported

## Future product scope

The scope for future releases of OpenCRVS is primarily determined based on confirmed system requirements coming from current and future OpenCRVS implementations.
