So sorry George that I didn't read your question until this morning. At that point the DUU instructions to 9.05.700 stated that the backup run after the 9.04 conversions should be restored. I have no idea where that other file comes from. I searched my test server and couldn't find anything like that from the DUU to 9.05.700 conversion. I hope you found your answer and were able to finish over the weekend. If you found the answer to your question and have a few minutes I'd appreciate it if you could post that answer as I may be testing the new DUU utility to 9.05.701 in a few weeks. Thanks!
Sue

I was also led to believe that upgrading from 410 may be better because some "prep work" for Epicor 9 conversions had been done in the 410 version of Vantage. I used the DUU from Vantage 8.03.410 to Epicor 9.05.700. The only problem I've found so far is that the payroll/GL links weren't brought over to the GLCTrans table. I was given an SCR for that and told it was targeted for 703. On my next practice conversion, I plan on going from 8.03.409A to 8.03.410 and then use the DUU from 8.03.410 to 9.05.701. Hope this helps.
