Migrating or Upgrading SiPass

You can directly upgrade to V7 from V5.0 or higher. To upgrade from older Desigo CC versions, you must upgrade through intermediate steps. See the instructions below.

NOTE: The Danger Management Propagation extension is no longer supported in Desigo CC V7. If you are upgrading a project that included this extension, you must remove the extension either before or immediately after upgrading to V7. In addition, any macros, reactions or scripts that relied on propagated properties will have to be reworked.
