I'm looking for ideas on what to name a category of documents that are
produced to report on changes to software. These changes are business
driven and are made to an order entry system to satisfy the needs of a
particular client when requested.

I think the analogous term for documenting hardware would be
"engineering change notice;" the term "release notes" would seem to be
an a obvious choice, but this particular system is ad-hoc and formal
version/release numbering hasn't been employed. The changes to be
documented include modifications to SELECT statements, new program
calls, changes to schema.

Any suggestions on what to call it?

Thanks,
