Pre-Upgrade Procedures
These procedures do not apply to a data-only upgrade because control table changes and customizations are not carried forward to the new release.
Skip the following steps which are in the Before You Begin the Installation and Upgrade section of this guide:
Instead of refreshing the existing user defined code and menu tables, delete them to ensure that they will be reloaded at the new release level when you run the Installation Workbench. Do not delete the F0002 and F00021 tables; these control tables must match the business data tables in order for the Next Numbers to be correct. Alternatively, you can save the control tables (menu, UDC, and data dictionary tables) and run the Control Table merge to update the tables with the new software release information.
