If you have created a maintenance organization with an earlier version of MainBoss Advanced, you can upgrade it to the current version.

The following information applies to upgrading data from an earlier version of MainBoss Advanced. For importing data from MainBoss Basic, see the Installation and Administration Guide.

Before you upgrade your database, create a backup copy using the standard back-up procedures of SQL Server. This protects your data in the event of a power failure or some other problem.

To upgrade your maintenance organization, click Upgrade (as described in Your Maintenance Organization List). This opens a window that provides information on your maintenance organization and your current version of MainBoss. The window also contains the following buttons:

Upgrade: Click this to go ahead with the upgrade process.

Close: Closes the window (whether or not you've upgraded the database).
