Considerations When Upgrading to SYSPRO 8

Older versions of programs in incorrect folders

When upgrading to SYSPRO 8 from an older SYSPRO version, Source IT programs that now reside in the SYSPRO 8 program and screens folders contain the previous SYSPRO version’s programs and will not function correctly.

When processing the Source IT SYSPRO 8 self-extracting executables placed in the SYSPRO\Base\Upgrade folder, the files are extracted into the following folders:
• SYSPRO8/Plugin/CustomPrograms
• SYSPRO/Plugin/CustomPrograms64
• SYSPRO/Plugin/CustomScreens
• SYSPRO/Plugin/CustomStore

There should be NO files in the following folders on either the server or the client PC that start with MAN*.*, BR*.*, BT*.* or SIT*.*
• SYSPRO8/Programs
• SYSPRO8/Programs64
• SYSPRO8/Screens

Remove (delete) any of these files should they exist.
Sign out of SYSPRO and back in and all should then be well.
