If you're using SMS, click on the Packages icon, expand Digital Vaccines 
and click on the one marked "(active)".  That will tell you the release and 
download dates.  You can check that against the TP website to see if you're 
up to date.

What do you mean by generate?  In the same screen you can click on Profiles 
and view the list of filters, both enabled and disabled.  If you just want 
a complete list of all available filters, ask your rep.  (I don't know if 
that's available or not.)
