Re: Sterling Commerce's GenTran version 2.0 and V5R3

Not v2.0 specifically, but we are on V3.0 and jumped from V4R5 to V5R3 
without any major issues with the exception of having to buy an external 
modem because we're still doing Bi-sync and the new internal modems on the 
520 don't support it.

However, we too were behind on maintenance and it cost us a pretty big 
penny to get back up to date. We'll be trying to bring everything current 
sometime later this year.

Thanks,

We're getting ready to upgrade our model 810 from V5 R2 to V5 R3.  We use 
version 2.0 of Sterling Commerce's GenTran software to do EDI with a 
couple trading partners.  When I called Sterling, they told me that 
version 2.0 wouldn't work with V5 R3 and that we'd need to go back on 
maintenance so that we could upgrade to the new version.

Before I tell my boss that we need to pay for 2 years of maintenance and 
upgrade our EDI software just so we can upgrade to V5 R3, I wanted to 
check and see if any of you had any experience with this.  Has anyone out 
there tried using GenTran version 2.0 at V5 R3?  If so, what problems did 
you have?

Thanks in advance.
