Upgrade Information

Program Updates

An "upgrade" to Point of Sale means you are going from a previous version to a newer version. This is different than a program "update," which is a free enhancement release within a version.

Installing an upgrade requires that a previous version of the program already be installed on your computer or that you have the previous version CD available when installing the new version. The upgrade installation will verify the previous version before installing the new files.

If you do not have a previous version of the program, you will need to purchase and install the full version of Point of Sale, rather than using an upgrade installation.

Important Upgrade Note: New information fields, list columns, and report options have been added in support of the many new and enhanced features in this version of Point of Sale. In most cases, these new fields and options are automatically available to you. However, if you have customized your Point of Sale lists, reports, or printed documents and tags in a previous version, the installation of this version did not overwrite your customized layouts to add the new fields. If you plan to use a new feature, and the fields or options are not visible to you, you will need to further customize to add them or, in the case of reports, use the Revert option to reset to the default options and then re-memorize.
