From the Source Code definition screen

To upgrade one or more Source Code instances from a Source Code definition, do the following:

  1. Navigate to the Program that contains the Source Code definition whose instances you want to upgrade.
  2. Check in the Program definition if it is not already checked in.
  3. In the Source Code subtab, click the Source Code's hyperlink in the Name column. The Source Code screen opens.
  4. Click the Upgrade All Instances button in the Source Code definition properties section of the screen.
  5. The system opens the Upgrade Instances screen with all instances of the Source Code definition displayed.

    Note:

    If the check box next to an instance is grayed out, then either the Program instance that owns it is checked out by someone else, or the Source Code instance already points to the latest Source Code definition.

For each instance, the system displays the following information:

  • Program Name. The Program name that contains the Source Code instance.
  • Program Version. The version number of the Program that contains the Source Code instance.
  • Program Version Label. The version label of the Program that contains the Source Code instance.
  • Program Validation Status. The validation status of the Program that contains the Source Code instance.
  • Program Checked Out By. The name of the person who has checked out the Program definition, parent to the Source Code instance. If a person other than you has the Program checked out, then you cannot upgrade the Source Code instance: the check box next to it is grayed out.
  • Source Code Definition Version. The version number of the Source Code definition to which that instance currently points.
  • Source Code Name. The name of the Source Code instance to which that instance currently points.
  • SAS File Reference Name. The SAS file reference name, if any.
  • Container. The Domain > Application Area hierarchy for the instance.

  1. Select one or more instances to upgrade. You can use the Select All and Select None functions and/or select or deselect instances individually by checking or unchecking their Select checkbox. Instances that already point to the current version of the definition cannot be selected.
  2. Click Upgrade. The system changes the source definition of the selected instances to the version of the definition where you are working.

Note:

If the Upgrade button is not enabled, then the Source Code definition you want to upgrade to, is not checked in. To check in that Source Code definition, you must check in the Program definition that owns it.

Note:

The newly upgraded version of the definition is not necessarily the latest version. It is the version you are currently working on. To go to the latest Source Code definition version, click the View Latest button from the Source Code definition properties section of the Source Code screen.
