7. Lifecycle Phases
Mainstream Phase (current product)
This is the currently released product line with the latest features and technology available. Includes support for the
most recent versions of Windows, SQL Server and MS Office. This version is intended for installation by new
customers. We recommend that existing customers migrate to this version when appropriate.
Extended Phase
These are generally previous Versions and/or Issues of the current Mainstream product. As soon as a new CD or
DVD is shipped, the previous Mainstream product is marked as 'Extended phase'. Generally only minor changes will
be made to this version of software and even then only at the discretion of the SYSPRO development team. We
recommend that existing customers migrate to the Mainstream version when appropriate.
Legacy Phase
These are older versions of software where no development work is being applied. These are typically at least a
generation of products older that the Mainstream one. We recommend that existing customers migrate to the
Mainstream version when appropriate. There is a risk that the latest technology may cause this software to fail to
run appropriately.
Retired Phase
These are older versions of software where no development work is being applied. These are at least a generation
of products older that the Mainstream one and use older technology or architectures. We recommend that existing
customers migrate to the Mainstream version when appropriate. There is a fairly high risk that the latest technology
may cause this software to fail to run appropriately.

8. A stepping stone version means that if you are using a
previous version of software, you must install and run the data
conversion using the stepping stone version before using
later versions.
