Hi, all-
For those who have upgraded to v15 already, did you encounter any issues with this upgrade, or did things go smoothly?
Also, has anyone been able to find documentation on which tables will be obsolete with v15?
Trying to prep best we can!
Thanks.
HI Rachel -
We just upgraded to v15 last night and so far so good. Our TNEW site was down for about 3 hours, which was better than I expected. I kept our 25 users out until 9:00 this morning to configure Single Sign On and update Security for the new system tables. I also had to update our merge procedure per the documentation from RAMP.
I'd highly recommend noting the changes you discover needing to make while doing your upgrade testing and if possible making changes to security for existing objects before you upgrade. It made things go very smoothly for me this morning.
I created an Excel file with every Security permission and a matrix of our user groups and have been using it to track Security permissions. I'm happy to share this file if you're interested.
Good luck with your upgrade!

Hi Sara,
I would love to see your file, if you are willing to share. kdaeger@countrymusichalloffame.org.
Thank you so much!
Sara,
That is great news that so far everything is working as expected for you all.
And yes, it would be incredibly helpful to see your file!
My email is rstone@artisnaples.org.
Thank you for sharing your feedback.
Sara - I would like to see your Excel file as well - mkeutsch@stratfordfestival.ca
Hi could I also get a copy of that excel file? afharris@sfmoma.org Pretty please!
Would also love to see your file! jennifer.miller@perotmuseum.org
Thanks!
I would love to take a look as well. Please send to: stevens@midlandcenter.org
Thank you so much for sharing.
I'll join the chorus - evan.cartwright@seattlerep.org
Thank you Sara!
Hi Sara - it would be great I could get a copy too! It's eleanor.higgins@bridgewater-hall.co.uk. Thank you!
v15 Security Matrix Template.xlsx
Here's the template I offered. I figured uploading it here might be easier so people who stumble on this post later will have access as well. Please feel free to message me if you have trouble downloading.
On the first tab I track each RAMP user so I can easily manage tokens. On the second tab, I put each v15 object and its description from the Tessitura documentation as of late December 2018/early January 2019. I have our user groups listed after that. For each object/user group combo (e.g., cell C2, etc.) I use some version of A,D,E,V (add, delete, edit, view) or None to represent the permissions I've assigned to the user group.
Hope this is as helpful for you as it was for me. All the best!
One thing I found this morning when our end-of-month pledge billing scheduled reports failed is that Address Purpose and Salutation Type are now required parameters on the report. Assuming those parameters are in the Pledge Billing utility prior to v15, updating your schedules now should save you the trouble later.
Thanks so much, Sara!
Kevin Sheehan , I'm not sure if you are the correct person to ask, but is there a v15 table structure document? I've tried searching and have yet to come across it. The latest I see is for version 14.
Hi Rachel,
There was not previously a v15.0 version of the document available, but I"m happy to share that with the help of our developers we have remedied that. Here is a link to the freshly published v15.0 Table Structures document:

Great news! This is very helpful. Thanks so much, Kevin.
