Re: BPCS migration from 2.0 to 6.0.04

[Alister Wm Macintyre <macwheel99@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

It is a reasonable question for which there are many plausible answers.

A company I know of had a merger ... different factories operating on 
different versions of BPCS, and they want to harmonize everything at the 
same version ... different 400 partitions for different nations native 
languages.

Another possibility, there has been turn over at a company, and the new 
people do not know where to go for tech support and documentation.

I have been with my employer for 20 years, and I know we have managed to 
misplace some SSA documentation ... I was just looking for the files flow 
chart a few days ago on the occasion of us adding a new facility ... no, 
not business picking up, but restructuring how we manage different kinds of 
parts.
