an upgrade license. Failure to comply with this step may require you to
purchase a new license at full retail. Contact us first if you are unsure
of your license status.
2. Archive your invoices. If you keep a maximum of 13 months of detailed data
or even better 3 months or less the update will process quickly. If you

depending on how many invoices are active. The Archive utility is found in
the A/R module under the Invoices Tab.
