    Client is on Sage Advanced Version 2017 with WO and is going to Sage Premium Version 2020 with Production Management.  

    Any recommendations on moving/upgrading them?   I'm sure I'll need to do 2 separate upgrades--1st for the PM product, 2nd to Premium?   Should I do all the work on one weekend, or should I put them thru two separate upgrades, a month apart?  Any other suggestions? 

    Of course, we'll be testing and I'll be training them prior to go live.  I've not yet done a live upgrade to PM (just in demo company), so not sure what is "truly" involved. 

    For right now, I'm tasked with getting a quote together.  However, I'm sure I'll be the one assigned to do the job.

    Thanks,
    Roberta

    Hi Roberta,
     We are in the process of this right now too. We are doing it all in one weekend & already did a test migration. We upgraded to v2020 Advanced first, did all the PM install, then removed WO & MRP, & did a migration to v2020 Premium. Its a lot of steps, but it works. 

    If you are staying on the same server, you have to make a copy elsewhere & then fully uninstall v2020 Adv before installing v2020 Prem.

    Best of luck & patience!
