Data Reorganization: Connected 11.0.09 to 11.1.04

PLEASE NOTE: This article only applies to the scheduled Connected on Demand update on Wednesday January 17th, 2024.

Once the Connected 11.1.04 update has been pushed, all Connected data files require data reorganization before using the new update. Performing a data reorganization is a straightforward process that needs to be done only once per data file (company file).  

To reorganize a Connected version 11.0.09 data file to Connected 11.1.04:

1) Start the Connected 11.1 application by double clicking the Connected 11.1 icon from the Desktop Icon or the Start Menu.

2) A screen will appear prompting to select your Connected data file or the last file used will automatically be present in the logon window. If required, locate the data file and click Open. The following Connected Log On window will appear prompting for Log on name and Password.

NOTE: Log on Name and Password are case sensitive.

3) Directly after login, the following Reorganize the Company Data file message will appear.

4) Carefully read the text on the screen and verify the correct file is being updated. Ensure each checkbox is read, understood, and selected prior to proceeding with the reorganization. If the reorganization is attempted without selecting all checkboxes, the following message will appear.

NOTE: Once the reorganization process has started it cannot be aborted until complete, otherwise a backup will need to be restored.

5) After selecting all checkboxes, click the Reorganize button to proceed or Cancel to abort. If you chose to reorganize the Version 11.1 working message will appear will processing is taking place.

6) When the reorganization process is completed the following dialog box will appear.

7) Click Yes to continue and log on to the converted data file.

Once the data reorganization is completed, users can login to that specific data file.  

Repeat steps 1-7 for any additional files that need to be updated.
