If you are on Great Plains version, earlier than 8.0, then you cannotupgrade in one step and you need to develop your understanding on the upgradepath. For example, if you are on version7.5, consider either upgrading to 8.0 and then go to 10.0 or upgrading to 9.0and then go to 10.0. If you are onarchaic versions: 6.0 and earlier, please get support from professional GreatPlains consultant 2. Upgrading to 10.0. Here, please note this very important message this upgrade is service pack sensitive. For example, if you are on GP 9.0, then Service Pack 2 is required (orhigher, you can apply 9.0 SP 4 at this time). If you are on GP 8.0, then SP 5 is required. Also, you cannot just use GP 10.0 CD to dothe job. Great Plains 10.0 SP 1 is required(SP 3 or 2 are better options in our opinion). As we got multiple upgrades under our belt, we feel the need to sharewith you User Security import issues, attributable to Great Plains 10.0 ServicePack 1, so consider SP3 or SP2 3.
