Database conversion status definitions
Description

Resolution

The Sage Fixed Assets Database Conversion Program will first analyze the existing databases to determine its conversion status. The Status column displays the status of each database.

 

  • Conversion Complete: This status indicates the database is on the currently used database schema and doesn’t require conversion
  • Ready to Convert: This status indicates that the database is ready to convert to the latest version
  • Incompatible Version: This status means you can't convert the database due to two or more missed schema changes. See Database conversion status: Incompatible Version
  • Cannot Open: This status indicates that you can't convert the database for one of these reasons:
    • The database was moved and the system can’t locate it
    • The database or log files are corrupt
    • The System account doesn’t have full control of the share
    • The database path in the Database List Manager differs from the one used to connect to BESTSYS.DB
    • For Premier edition: The WINFAS user doesn’t have DB_Owner rights to the Asset database
    • For Premier edition: The conversion status can occur if a Project Database is added to the Database Utility for Depreciation and Tracking. It can also occur if an Asset Database is added to the Database Utility for Planning
