Refreshing and Verifying Data

Before running Installation Workbench, you have the option to refresh the business data for the environment being upgraded with a current set of Production data. Having a recent copy of the data makes testing table conversions and the new release more effective. For example, when you upgrade the development environment, refresh Business Data - TEST; and when you upgrade the PY environment, refresh Business Data - CRP.

The source can be any data set you choose, but you should use a current copy of your production data. When table conversions run during Installation Workbench, this data is converted to the new Release 9.2 formats, as required. By using a copy of your production data, you ensure a successful upgrade of your live production data later.
