Mike, As you surmised, we are at version 6.0 of Lawson which I know complicated things. I don't remember all of the details, but I was prepared to forgo most of the conversion to speed up the process but it just took too long for Lawson to respond.. It took 16 days to get my last quote. As I explained to Lawson back in October, my peak season is during the winter and I needed to be up and running before it got cold.. On November 19th , I couldn't wait any longer so I went the route of installing a 170 running 5.2 so I could put the rest of my production on our new 520. By the time I got all of that in place, I figured I lost about 6 weeks of productive time on the 520.

I am assuming 6 because 7.2 and 8.0 are both supported on V5R3. The upgrade from 7.2 to 8.0 is pretty smooth. I would guess an upgrade from 6 to 8 would be an absolute nightmare from what I have heard about the 6 to 7 upgrade.
