Vantage 5.0 upgrade

There is no test. Users need to update our standard cost! Yes,
I supposed we could shut down the system or do it on the weekend.

The history of these standard cost replace bugs show that no one
is testing the system/patches thoroughly.

First "get parts" takes hours... They fix it. Then I notice that
"rollup" takes hours... They fix it. Now we can't print an edit
list or post.

Why not test out the whole procedure? They probably test it
on a tiny test database and not a real one.

Todd,

3 locations at v4.0. 2 locations at v3.0 hope to have these upgraded in the
next 45 days.

To be honest, everyone's freaking me out with some of these 5.0 bug reports. I
introduce a 20 minute labor edit and my production supervisors will KILL me. If
I introduce a 10 hour cost replace....well, in my mind that would be unusable.
Is this true?

Don't know about the 10 hr cost replace ...

But I have the same feeling as you do about V 5.0. Seems like VERY few
people have gone live and there seems to be allot of bugs that are nasty in
nature.

I'm surprised at how many people are still on V 3.0

The edit report that you can print in standard cost replace
took tech support 10 hours to print when testing after I
reported the problem. I have no idea how long the actual
post takes because we can't run it. It crashes with the
infamous "lock table overflow" error. I've increased my
locks to 50048 and it still won't run. I suppose I have
to go higher.

If you can run the test in single user mode, the lock table problem will "go away" because in single user mode, Progress does not lock the records (no need).
