Service Pack or Minor Release

Occasionally, software service packs are released to fix bugs or to add/improve features and functionality. It is our mission to keep service pack installations quick and easy. Service packs are not considered a new build or version but rather a minor release. For example Builds 73.1, 73.2, 73.3, etc are all minor releases of Build 73. Table conversions or significant changes in functionality are not included in minor releases. Here are some common questions regarding minor release installations.

When installing a minor release:

  1. Do I need new registration keys?
    • Answer: No.
  2. Are any SQL tables converted, added, or removed from my SQL server?
    • Answer: No.
  3. Are other users required to exit the system/log out of Microsoft Dynamics GP?
    • Answer: No.
  4. Do I need to install the service pack on all of the computers that use the software?
    • Answer: Yes.
  5. Is a backup of my SQL databases necessary when preparing to install a service pack?
    • Answer: No.
  6. After installing a service pack, I am prompted upon starting Microsoft Dynamics GP to include new code. Is this necessary?
    • Answer: Yes.

The installation of a service pack will only modify the local software files. Installing a service pack on one computer does not update the entire system. Installing a service pack does not modify any SQL data or SQL table structure. Installing a service pack does not invalidate any existing registration keys.
