Upgrading from Openbravo POS 2.20

Openbravo POS 2.30 needs Sun Microsystems Java version 1.6 or greater to run. If you have an older version of Java to run Openbravo POS 2.20, first you must upgrade to Sun Microsystems Java version 1.6 before installing Openbravo POS 2.30

To save all the data and configuration we recommend first to close all the applications connected to the database, make a backup of your database, upgrade the database and discard this backup only when everything has been tested to work with the new version.

The first time Openbravo POS 2.30 starts, if the database is from a previous version it asks the user if it should be upgraded. If the user selects yes, the SQL script that upgrades the database structure is executed and Openbravo POS starts normally.

Menu options and permissions

There are several menu options and permissions that have to be updated manually in an upgraded installation of Openbravo POS 2.30 from 2.20.

submenu.addPanel("/com/openbravo/images/bookmark.png", "Menu.Auxiliar", "com.openbravo.pos.inventory.AuxiliarPanel");
submenu.addPanel("/com/openbravo/images/bookmark.png", "Menu.Attributes", "com.openbravo.pos.inventory.AttributesPanel");
submenu.addPanel("/com/openbravo/images/bookmark.png", "Menu.AttributeValues", "com.openbravo.pos.inventory.AttributeValuesPanel");
submenu.addPanel("/com/openbravo/images/bookmark.png", "Menu.AttributeSets", "com.openbravo.pos.inventory.AttributeSetsPanel");
submenu.addPanel("/com/openbravo/images/bookmark.png", "Menu.AttributeUse", "com.openbravo.pos.inventory.AttributeUsePanel");

submenu.addPanel("/com/openbravo/images/appointment.png", "Menu.InventoryDiffDetail", "/com/openbravo/reports/inventorydiffdetail.bs");

Integration between Openbravo ERP and Openbravo POS

With the new integration architecture between Openbravo ERP and Openbravo POS the previous integration does not longer work and you need to build again the integration between Openbravo ERP and Openbravo POS. The new integration architecture needs Openbravo ERP 2.50 or later and Openbravo POS 2.30 beta or later.

To install the components of the new integration architecture you need to hide the previous integration buttons removing the following lines from the resource Menu.Root:

submenu.addTitle("Menu.Maintenance.ERP");
submenu.addExecution("/com/openbravo/images/openbravo.png", "Menu.ERPProducts", "com.openbravo.possync.ProductsSyncCreate");
submenu.addExecution("/com/openbravo/images/openbravo.png", "Menu.ERPOrders", "com.openbravo.possync.OrdersSyncCreate");

In Openbravo ERP you need to install the Openbravo POS Synchronization Web Services module that can be downloaded from the Sourceforge.net: OpenbravoPOS: Files or from the module repository of Openbravo ERP.

Pentaho data integration is the tool used to run the integration jobs and transformations, and the jobs and transformations that contains the logic of the integration can be downloaded from Sourceforge.net: OpenbravoPOS: Files. These jobs and transformations need the parameters to connect to the Openbravo POS Synchronization web services installed in Openbravo ERP and the parameters to connect to the Openbravo POS database.
