Q
What steps need to be taken prior to
converting my data files
for the Reporting to the MAX?
A
The conversion utility only works with the latest versions of ACTPlus, StoreWare, and FUND
Accounting for DOS. Therefore, if you are currently using an older version of the DOS
product, you must upgrade to the latest version prior to conversion.
You must also post or clear all transaction batches, pack
your DOS data files, and back them up before you convert. If any errors or problems
occur while packing your files, you need to address them before proceeding with the
conversion.
Finally, the conversion utility places large amounts of
data in memory while converting. Make sure you have available at least twice the disk
space your current CMS directory uses (or the directory where you store your data files)
before starting the conversion.
Note
If you are currently using Multi-Location Inventory
with ACTPlus Accounting or StoreWare, and wish to convert to Point of Sale or Accounting
for Windows, you must perform a few additional steps prior to conversion. First, transfer
all of your Inventory stock items to one location. After transferring the quantities,
delete the extra stock item locations. Finally, reindex and pack your data files. You are
then ready to start the conversion.
