GP Upgrade from 2015 to 2018 test environment

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 75

We are trying to upgrade from 2015 to 2018 but want to test the upgrade first.  Can I update my TEST GP database that is on the same server?  Can I install GP2018 and connect to a play database that is on the same server as the production?  Can someone help me what is the best way to test this upgrade?

    You are going to need a test server with another instance of SQL.  You cannot test just one company as the first database to be upgraded is the DYNAMICS database.
