Install an Update
Please also have a look at the how-to page on updating Anveo.
We ship with every Release an Update Process & Changelog documentation that includes a list of all changes and a step-by-step instruction how to run an upgrade. This documentation describes the upgrade of the Anveo components only while you are staying on the same Dynamics version, same Dynamics executables and same SQL server. If you change one of these components, please have a look at the notes below.
Compared to Microsoft Dynamics updates, it is very easy and fast to run updates. We have separated your customizable code from our core features, so you will always remain your own changes.
It is very important to read the documentation for updates first as it contains information for a seamless update.
Beginning with Anveo Client Suite 10, the Anveo license key requires a company names filter string. It is important to request your new key before running an update of Anveo.
Development or Test System
We highly recommend to run an update in a separate development or test system first before going live in your main system. This allows you and your team to test the new release with your environment first.
Microsoft Dynamics System Upgrade?
If you are planning to upgrade your Dynamics system that includes an Anveo installation, we highly recommend to get in touch with our support team to get assistance on the Anveo related tasks. There are some imporant to-dos that must be done to ensure a proper operation. This also includes upgrade to a different build version of the Dynamics executables or a change or move of the SQL server.
Typical Anveo Mobile App tasks:
- Make sure all important information has been synchronized from the mobile devices with your Dynamics system before running an upgrade.
- Request the right “Anveo App Extension” or “FOB Objects File” version.
- Make sure the Anveo Delta Server installation is properly set-up after the upgrade. Depending on the server configuration, a re-install of the Anveo Delta Server might be required. (This is only relevant for Anveo Legacy installations, where the AnveoDelta Server is part of the SQL Server)
