Update FSCA (create new version)

Once an FSCA is submitted, it can be updated through the creation of a new version.

Note

Due to the inter-dependence between FSCA and FSN reports, the available options when updating an FSCA can vary.

Here is a cheat sheet of all possible updates depending on the FSCA's state and FSN variations:
