• After upgrade and migration to a new version of Sage 100, data from the previous version must be converted to the new version.
• Some Product Updates require conversion of data files due to updates to one or more files, or the addition of one or more new files.

Convert the company data:

• Select Yes at prompt that begins with "Data files have not been converted for this company", and ends with: "Do you want to run Company Maintenance Now?" to open the Company Maintenance task window (or, alternatively, open Library Master, Main menu, Company Maintenance) 
  1.  For Company Code, select the company code or enter it
  2. Click Convert (upper right corner) to open the Convert Module Data Files task window
     • Select the Convert Data for All Companies check box if other companies also need to be converted and you want to convert them all at once
       • Note: If all companies are converted at once, this may take more time.
  3. Click Proceed to begin the conversion process
     • Note: Wait for conversion to complete. Depending on how much data there is to convert and other network and operating system variables, this may take several minutes to an hour or several hours.
  4. Click OK when prompted with a Data Conversion window with the message "Data conversion is complete..."
     • Note: If you click Activity Log, it is the same as selecting OK, except the Activity Log window will also display.
  5. Click Accept to exit Company Maintenance

Note: All company must be converted before accessing modules and working in that company code. If you select No when prompted to convert, you will have to convert at a later time.
