Do you have custom reports or forms? If so, please consider installing a test version of 9.0 to confirm they will work. If there are any issues, please contact NewHaven Software Support to contract any necessary fixes.
Do you have custom integrations? NewHaven will keep all standard integrations current including those with UPS, FedEx, Endicia, Peachtree, and payment gateways. If you have developed any integrations of your own, please consider installing a test version of 9.0 to confirm they will work.

Get everyone out of CMS (delete the file CMSNET.dat to be sure)
Update server - This process should take ~10 min when upgrading from 8.0. It will take much longer for upgrades from 7.0. Upgrades from earlier versions are not supported and in such cases an intermediate update to 8.0 will be necessary.
- Verify you can log into CMS without error
Update workstations (required if updating from v7, optional for v8 but recommended to update Help file)
- Update Help - If not performing workstation updates, you should instead copy the file CMS.chm to all workstations' \NewHaven Software directory from \NewHaven Software on your server
