Hello everyone,

I have an SBO 8.82 PL08 (8.82.0.71) database that I need to upgrade to SAP 9.2 (last release).

Can i upgrade from 8.82 PL08 to directly B1 9.2 or i need to first upgrade it to 9.0?

How should I go about migrating that database to SAP 9.2?

Thank you

Hi,

The SAP note is correct. You should upgrade 8.82 to 9.2 PL04 in new server by copying database from old server.

Then upgrade from 9.2 Pl04 to 9.2 Pl08 hotfix in new server.

Always remember to keep old server in LIVE in case if any upgrade failure, user still can use SAP.

In the new machine I should:

Option 1: install first 9.2 pl04 to put the bd that comes from the first machine? and only then upgrade to the pl08?

Option 2: install pl08 and upgrade to DB? and then install the hotfix after?

Option 3: Install the hotfix directly and then upgrade to the DB that comes with the PL04 machine?

Hello.

I have:

- SAP B1 8.82 PL08

- SQL 2008

- windows server 2008

I need:

- Sap b1 9.2 PLO8

- SQL 2016

- windows server 2016

What I need in the end:

1º can I do the direct download? According to the sap note, I can lose data if I direct it to 9.2 PL08. First it should do for 9.2 PL04.

Note 9.2 PL04:

Note 9.2 PL08: 2430186 - Overview Note for SAP Business One 9.2 PL08

Upgrade strategy: https://help.sap.com/doc/011000358700001396142012e/9.2/en-US/B1_Upgrade_Strategy.pdf

2º Can I make the two upgrades (1st pl04 and 2nd pl08) with the original machine with SQL 2008 and then copy the DB to the final machine with SQL 2016?

Hi Daniel,

you should find all relevant information in reliable format provided by SAP. You also need to consider your DB, so it's essential to have a look at Upgrade Strategy Overview.

In case of any concern, I suggest you consult your experienced SAP Partner on this project.

Best regards, Peter
