  • Can I upgrade directly from Version 7.6 (2014) to Sage 500 v2019? - I cannot find anything in the knowledgebase on that - only to version 2018.

    Thanks!

    Hi Cindy.

    Per Sage 500 Installation Guide (Install.pdf) page 29: "...If you are upgrading from version 2013, 2014, 2016, 2017, or 2018 you can upgrade directly to version 2019."

    The install guide is incorrect - I had to go from 2014 to 2018 then to 2019.  This should be corrected in this install guide

  • in reply to Cindy Bishop

    I also tried to upgrade straight from 2014 to 2019 and could not.  I did the same thing Cindy did.

    We have an outstanding issue with the upgrade to version 2019 (KB 100976). As soon as the code fix becomes available we are going to upload  new database utilities (server). In the meantime you will need to go thru version 2018 upgrade and then to version 2019.

    Zenon,

    Doing a two step upgrade is no biggie right?

    Thx.

    John

    Once the upgrade to version 2018 goes thru successfully and all errors are resolved the database is ready for the next step which is the upgrade to version 2019.  Depending on the size of the database   the upgrade can take a few hours more.  As soon as we have the fix ready we will upload it. We apologize for any inconvenience related to this issue.

    We have a code fix now:

    To fix the issue in the Sage 500 ERP DB upgrade from 2017 to 2019, at the computer hosting Sage 500 Database Upgrade Utility the following two files will need to be edited:

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Sage Software\Sage MAS 500 Database Utilities\DBUpgrade\DBMVER.SQL

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Sage Software\Sage MAS 500 Database Utilities\DBUpgrade\8.00\DBMVER.SQL

    In either of the two files locate the following section:

    insert into #tdmAFDVersions (VersionSeq, VersionNo, MSSQLVersion, DBEnvCheck, DBEnvEnforce)

    values (23, '7.80', '10.0.2531;', 65535, 65535)

    insert into #tdmAFDVersions (VersionSeq, VersionNo, MSSQLVersion, DBEnvCheck, DBEnvEnforce)

    values (23, '7.90', '10.0.2531;', 65535, 65535)

    insert into #tdmAFDVersions (VersionSeq, VersionNo, MSSQLVersion, DBEnvCheck, DBEnvEnforce)

    values (24, '8.00', '10.0.2531;', 65535, 65535)

    Replace the code above with the following and save the file:

    insert into #tdmAFDVersions (VersionSeq, VersionNo, MSSQLVersion, DBEnvCheck, DBEnvEnforce)

    values (23, '7.80', '10.0.2531;', 65535, 65535)

    insert into #tdmAFDVersions (VersionSeq, VersionNo, MSSQLVersion, DBEnvCheck, DBEnvEnforce)

    values (24, '7.90', '10.0.2531;', 65535, 65535)

    insert into #tdmAFDVersions (VersionSeq, VersionNo, MSSQLVersion, DBEnvCheck, DBEnvEnforce)

    values (25, '8.00', '10.0.2531;', 65535, 65535)

    ** Notice that only the first column (VersionSeq) values have been changed.

    Either file can be edited using Notepad, SQL Management Studio, or any other text editing program.

    The two step upgrade process was for us since we have a reseller and we do a test upgrade before we go live so it costs us extra money for the extra time it takes to covert the data.
