In Salesforce Revenue Cloud, when a new release is being deployed, it’s important to test the implementation against the new release before it deploys to production. This can be achieved by:

Reviewing status.salesforce.com to determine refresh cutoff for the new release: Salesforce provides information about the refresh cutoff for the new release on status.salesforce.com. This allows you to know when the new release will be available in the sandbox for testing.

Determiningwhether your sandbox is on a preview or non-preview instance: Salesforce refreshes preview sandboxes a month before each major release. Regular, non-preview sandboxes are refreshed toward the end of the release cycle. Knowing whether your sandbox is on a preview or non-preview instance can help you plan your testing schedule accordingly.

It’s worth noting that while Salesforce ensures that all sandboxes are upgraded, the timing of the upgrade can vary depending on whether the sandbox is on a preview or non-preview instance. Submitting a ticket to support when you want your sandbox updated is not a standard practice for preparing for a new release.
