Note: Disabling the service for the SQL Server instance, instead of uninstalling it, may cause performance issues with other interfacing software or programs you use when it is syncing with Sage 300 CRE.

1. Optional: Remove the SQL database(s) for the SQL server instance you use with SQL Replicator. For the removal process, refer to article 93215
   DocLink: Replicator: How do I remove an existing Sage 300 CRE replicated database in Microsoft SQL Management Studio so I can start over?
2. Stop replicator from running
   Start > Search > System Administrator > log In > Select your replicated company > Stop Replicator
3. Uninstall the SQL instance you were using for SQL Replicator. Consult with your database administrator and/or Microsoft for assistance.
   • Notes:
     • The default name is SAGE300CRE, but you may have chosen a different name upon installation.
     • Do not remove the shared features and components as it may affect other SQL instances you are using.
