Timecard data when migrating from 4.1 to 4.4

Doing a test upgrade for a client yesterday.

 

Migrated and converted the data.   In testing,  we noted that the Timecard data still claimed to be at the prior level (now that I think about it,  I think it said 4.3??).   Told it to convert again and it then went to 4.4.

 

However, upon accessing T/C it claimed that the module was not set up?

 

Went to look at the data and it was clearly empty tables.   Just for grins,  cleared out the data folder for time card and manually copied the files from 4.1 and tried to let it convert again.  Claimed nothing to convert and tried to access the data again and it claimed that T/C was not set up.

 

Looked back at the data files and there was a bunch of empty files again.

 

Haven't found anything in the knowledgebase about this.   Anyone seen this before?

Re: Timecard data when migrating from 4.1 to 4.4

I have, it happened a while ago though, so my memory may be fuzzy!

 

I think when I looked in the company's MAS_XXX folder, the timecard data folder was named something like "TCXXX not converted" , i just changed the name, converted data again and it was fine.

Re: Timecard data when migrating from 4.1 to 4.4

That did the trick!    Appears that as long as the original directory was there,  it would not process it properly.

 

Thank you.
