Creating Branch Versions

Question

I have been using branch versioning for a while for my parcel fabric.  And now I wanted to use this sort of feature service for more of my data layers.  I have a SQL server database, and have successfully created a database connection, with a geodatabase connection type of "branch versioning."  And I have been able to actually edit using the feature service that I created.  My only problem is that I cannot seem to change from the default version and create any additional versions.  When I right click on the data tab to try to manage the versions, it is grayed out.  See below:

When I go to the connection properties, this is what I show:

I am not sure what I missed in the process of setting this up.  Any ideas?

Thanks,

This did NOT fix the issue.  I am going to open up a trouble ticket and I will report back here afterwards with summary.

Ok, thanks for that. These things are hard to troubleshoot via forums. It may be best to work with technical support on this.

I think it is just a small configuration needed.

It says versioned.  And the connection says versioned.  And it lets me edit, but does not allow me to create or change versions.  I am going to try copying the dataset to a database that is already working in branch and see if that works there...
