PAPERSAVE 4.X TO PAPERSAVE 6.X MIGRATION-SPECIFIC TASKS
In PaperSave Version 4x we allowed clients to install PaperSave under a workgroup. In our latest version of PaperSave 6x a windows domain and active directory is needed. We will not be able to migrate clients that do not operate within a windows domain environment using active directory.
If you are migrating from a PaperSave 4.x system to a PaperSave 6.x system, you will need to create a backup of the PaperSave database. We recommend that this backup be created via SQL Server Management Studio. Please refer to the following article for more information: How to Back Up a Database (SQL Server Management Studio).
SQL Server Tasks (PaperSave 4.x to PaperSave 6.x Migration-specific ONLY)
1. Create a backup of the PaperSave database using SQL Server Management Studio
2. You will need to install Microsoft Office Suite on the application server. Our migration utility uses the native client of Microsoft Office to move any documents that may have been added to the PaperSave database that are Microsoft Office related. After the migration has been completed, you will be able to uninstall that copy of Microsoft Office from the PaperSave Application Server.
Supported Microsoft Office Version for Migration:
1. Microsoft Office 2007
2. Microsoft Office 2010
3. Microsoft Office 2013
Note: |
Installation of Microsoft Office does not have to be registered with any keys or configured in anyway, raw install will do. |
