PLEASE read this entire article before installing and running All Orders 5.
General
- All Orders 5 uses the same server as All Orders 4 so you DO NOT HAVE TO
RE-INSTALL THE SERVER.
- All Orders 5 is installed in a separate programs group than All Orders
4.
- Uninstall version 4 from all client computers. You can do this from
Add/Remove Programs.
- Install and run version 5
When you open All Orders 5 for the first time it will:
- Take a back up of your All Orders 4 database;
- Update your database for the new features that have been
added; and
- Record historical transactions in the All Orders ledger
for the purpose of tracking FIFO and/or actual costs. Recording historical
transactions may be a lengthy process. Please reserve one minute per 100
transactions. Historical transactions include Receivers, Vendor Returns, Qty
Adjustments, Value Adjustments, Shipped Ship Docs and Customer Returns and
Finished Work Orders and Disassembly.
- Do not interrupt the process by clicking the screen,
the application may appear frozen but it is not, please let it run.
- The administrator should enter the new license key. Open All Orders and
do Help --> License Key Manager. You only have to do this once
unlike version 4 were a license key needed to be entered for each client.
*** IMPORTANT ***
If you decide to keep version 4 and version 5 on the same client, before switching between versions do Start > All Programs > All Orders 5 > Reset
Settings
If you are using a custom application that calls the All
Orders 4 Library, it may have to be recompiled so it can run with All Orders V5.
