Product Updates


Last updated on: 2/28/2024  (added update for version 2024 only)

STEP 1: Update your accounting first (if applicable)
If upgrading to support a newer version of Sage 50 or QuickBooks ensure that you have upgraded the accounting system first.

Sage 50 Users: If you DO NOT upgrade your company file ‘in-place’ (i.e., you upgrade/move the company file to a new folder), you will need to re-point the ODBC connection to the new folder.  We charge $25 for remote assistance in re-pointing the ODBC connection.   The recommended approach is to make a backup of your current company folder and then update your older company file in-place to avoid this assistance.  Also, version upgrades will unset ODBC access by third-party add-ons.   So, under Maintain > Users > Setup Security > Data Access (tab), re-enable access and ensure that you have your original password set for CartSpan to access ODBC.  If you don’t know the password used for your installation, send us an email to request the password we typically use for installs.

QuickBooks Users: Major updates will often deactivate the QODBC add-on by FlexQuarters. Ensure that you test for a successful connection before running CartSpan after the update. This can be accomplished using the ‘QODBC Driver for QuickBooks Setup’ application (‘General’ tab) found under ‘All Programs’ on your Windows Start menu.

STEP 2: Backup your system

Though your application configuration and licensing file will remain unaffected, please make a backup of the “C:\Program Files (x86)\Noverhead\CartSpan\” directory before initiating this update. If you don’t already perform regular backups of all important data on your system, you should start doing so as a matter of good data-management.

STEP 3: Uninstall Current Version of CartSpan

Close any open instances of CartSpan and uninstall the current version.  You can do this using the MS Windows ‘Add or remove programs’ control panel, or running the ‘Undeploy’ script directly from the CartSpan installation directory.

STEP 4: Install the update

Download the version of software that corresponds with your own accounting system. For instance, if you are running Sage 50 v.2024, make sure you download/install the 2024 update. You will need to uninstall your existing instance of CartSpan before you can install the update.

Newer versions of CartSpan utilize Microsoft’s .NET 7 platform.  If you are not already running a newer version of CartSpan, you will likely be prompted to download/install this runtime the first time launch CartSpan.  Simply follow the prompts to install.

Note regarding supporting PHP scripts for users of open-source eCommerce systems – If it has been a significant amount of time since you have upgraded, there is a possibility that you may require newer PHP scripts on your web server.  If so, this will be indicated the first time you run CartSpan after the update. Please contact technical support in this event.
