Topic: Help moving from v. 2.3.18 to latest stable version (2.4.6)
As you can tell from my current version, I haven't updated FA for a while. If anyone could assist with upgrading to 2.4.6 I would be very grateful, and willing to pay
It's much more fun, when you can discuss your problems with others...

I am currently doing the exact same thing with you.
I am not actualy doing it, I am looking for someone to do it for me
Oh, I see. Well, if I successfully migrated maybe I can do it for you. I had done it once in the past but it was still on 2.3.x version. So, I am now learning how to do it too

Just want to update, it is actually possible to upgrade from 2.3 version directly to 2.4.6 if you have database backup.
OK, do you have the instructions? I have been looking, but I am not sure I found the right ones.
I found these steps, but I am at version 2.3.18, not 2.3.24, so I am not sure if I need to update to 2.3.24 first
Steps to Upgrade it
1. Backup the database from your current version FA 2.3.24 .
2. Install a new fresh FA 2.3.26 on separate directory.
3. Restore the database which you backed up on FA2.3.24 and login as admin in FA 2.3.26
4. Again here Backup database from 2.3.26 and save it on your pc
5. Download Fresh New FA copy, 2.4.4 and install it fresh.
6. Now you need to Restore the backup you exported from FA2.3.26
7. Now when you login as administrator, FA will ask you to update your database.
8. Now go to Software Upgrade. You can see Update option, Just click and update the Database.
Once these steps done successfully, everything will be alright with new version.
If you only upgrading database, upgrading directly from 2.3RC and above to 2.4.1 and above can be done.
1. Create main company
2. Create new company that match prefix table with the one you want to restore
3. login to the newly created company
4. do backup restore
5. after backup restore, you will not be able to do anything so logout and login to main company
6. in main company go to software upgrade and upgrade the company you just restored
7. now you can login to upgraded company with our old data account
