Installation Notes:

If you are upgrading from Digita Practice Management 3.0, in some circumstances the Master report templates and stylesheets can be overwritten.

If the following circumstances apply to you:

1. you have not amended your Templates Location (in Tools | Options | Defaults | Report Settings)

and
2. you have edited your Master template e.g. to add a company logo or you have edited the supplied stylesheets e.g. to change the default font used in reports

You will need to backup your master templates and stylesheets before applying the update.

To backup these files go to the installation folder e.g. C:\Program Files\Digita\Practice Management\Reports
Copy the folders named “Master” and “Stylesheets” to somewhere safe.

You can now upgrade. After the installation you should replace the newly installed folders with the backups you made earlier.
