Hi, I understand that V12 is backwards compatible. So your custom DocType should work. Hope that you have made all changes through an independent app.

First install V12 on a demo server and then add the db to it. This will tell you of any error that you may face when upgrading to V12.

Best of luck.

Hi Muzzy ,

Thanks a ton for your response and solution !

I am not familiar with bench so if you could tell me where the DB would be available in existing installation and how do i add it to new installation ?

Also , I created doc type using custom doc types so hope that works !!
