Hi Sue,

Yes, when I have upgraded - 1st to base & then apply the patch level.
The 8.03.409C patch is one of the last steps & only takes a few minutes.

>The instructions for 8.03.409C
These are generic so not all parts apply. That's why I always upgrade on a test server first. Make notes, get all the required downloads, find things that break, etc...

I've also talked to tech support and they've always told me to update to the target version (the number) first and then update to the target patch (the letter). Maybe Epicor is being extra cautious or maybe depending on what they upgraded it sometimes really doesn't matter. Maybe I should think about trying a shortcut now and then...it would save some time!

You may want to check EpicWiki, there are some lists of things broken and fixed with different releases of Vantage. Some of these issues may not be an issue for your company. I'd put 409C on a test server and test the items listed as broken in 409, 409A, 409B and 409C along with your usual business practices. If you don't have a login for EpicWiki, you can request one. I've found quite a bit of useful information there.

8.03.408B Progress

Last wednesday everything was fine... Today if I print a pick list or a sales order I don't get the components listed. Where do I start to look?
Main part is a sales kit...

Thanks,

James

Called Epicor support and they said it is a known issue and the fix is to upgrade to 409C????
So, if I do that-what does it break???

Made the move from 408b to 905c last Wednesday. The biggest issue right now is that something in the manifest is locking up app servers.

So if I go to 409c, is this just a backup the db apply the 409c files and your done? Haven't looked for the upgrade docs yet. So far only 1 part has this issue....

I've only seen minor issues, mostly custom data definitions to be rebuilt.

Don't you have to go from 408B to 409 and then to 409C? I had a number of issues show up when I went from 406A to 409A. I'm not sure how many of those issues were new between 408B and 409A. You may want to check EpicWiki, there are some lists of things broken and fixed with different releases of Vantage. Some of these issues may not be an issue for your company. I'd put 409C on a test server and test the items listed as broken in 409, 409A, 409B and 409C along with your usual business practices. If you don't have a login for EpicWiki, you can request one. I've found quite a bit of useful information there.

I have a test server and went from 8.03.408B Progress right to 8.03.409C Progress?? Is there some rason to go thru all of the other stuff??

I did find the problem with the part not showing sub components.... someone went in and unapproved the part. once I reapproved it and deleted/readded the part back on the sales order it showed the kit parts....

I guess I never tried it that way! The instructions for 8.03.409C say you must upgrade to 8.03.409 first. I've also talked to tech support and they've always told me to update to the target version (the number) first and then update to the target patch (the letter). Maybe Epicor is being extra cautious or maybe depending on what they upgraded it sometimes really doesn't matter. Maybe I should think about trying a shortcut now and then...it would save some time!
