Question regarding Production Management vs. Manufacturing modules

SOLVED

So we are a long time user of the Work Order module, now the Manufacturing module.  Sometime later this year, I plan on switching from Advanced to Premium as I now understand that there is a manufacturing module for Premium.  Is this what is referred to as "Production Management" ?  And how different is this from "Manufacturing" ?  Has anyone else here made this transition, and if so, are there any gotchas I should be aware of?

    Production Management is the rewritten version of the Work Order module into the modern Business Framework; it has mostly feature parity with Work Order, plus some additional features.  It is available on all platforms that Sage offers.  There are a couple of things that aren't up to parity:  work order history does not convert to the new module (but you will have read-access to WO historical data), and the MRP module is replaced with IRP, and IRP does not blow through subassemblies at this time.
