    Upgrade path ver 10 to 2013

    Sorry if I am being lazy, but I can't see a simple answer in the knowledge base

    What is the correct/best upgrade path to follow?

    I am currently on Business Plus 10.0.2 and want to upgrade to Sellerdeck 2013

    Do I need to go 10 > 11 and then 11 > 12, or can I just go straight from 10 to 12?

    Please point me in the right direction where I can view a hand held upgrade guide (I'm sure there must be one here somewhere)

    Thanks

    Morning Martin

    Upgrade from v10 to v12 is supported, as both have the same design structure.
    where I can view a hand held upgrade guide
    Under the main help in SD 2013, the topic Application Settings | Upgrading to new versions lists the major points to follow when running a typical upgrade process.

    However, that said, it would be also helpful if other users who have done similar upgrades could post their experiences / suggestions here.

        My experience

        Since starting with V7, I have upgraded by the snapshot route every time up to now - bringing a snapshot of my existing site into the downloaded new version, not over-writing existing version, when the new version has been a new whole number, eg V7 to V8 to V9 to V10 to V11, but when doing minor upgrades within a version, eg V10.0.2, directly over the existing version. This has worked fine for me up to now. I have never tried jumping a version, as you intend, but Sellerdeck assure that this is fine.

        However, as my site was originally designed in V7 and there have been many upgrades since, as there is a lot of clutter, I decided this time, going from V11 to 2013, to start afresh, with a new design, and then import shop data, orders, shipping tables, registrations. I am just about at the point of completing the design part and about to start importing data. So far I am pleased with this route and glad that I chose it.

          We are in the process of upgrading from v10 to 2013 (v12.0.5), but finding some problems...

          So far:

          #1 : Our slightly modified reports (invoices.rpt dataentry.rpt etc) do not work in 2013 (v12)
          #2 : We use the "sendrichmail" script in the ACTINIC.pm, using this on v12 causes a "500 internal server error" during checkout.

          Are there any others we should be aware of?
          - and if anyone knows the solutions to our existing two...

            A quick update:

            After a weekend of working on this...

            #1 : I eventually decided to re-do our reports from the originals in v12
            - I did find a way to get 2 out of 3 v10 reports working in v12
            - there was 1 that utterly confused me, and I think Windows 8 & "Program Files" folder was one of the causes...

            #2 : I found that the code does work for v12
