Software Updates
InSched includes a built-in update mechanism to keep the software current with the latest features and fixes.
Checking for Updates
Select Help > Check for Updates from the menu. InSched connects to the update server and checks if a newer version is available.
Update Process
When an update is available:
- InSched notifies you of the available version
- Review the update information
- Confirm to proceed with the download and installation
- The update is downloaded and applied
- InSched may need to restart to complete the update
Best Practices
- Update during off-hours — Install updates when the system is not in active use to minimize disruption
- All workstations — Update all workstations to the same version to ensure consistency
- Backup first — Ensure your database is backed up before applying updates
- Review release notes — Check what has changed in the new version, especially for any workflow or feature changes that may affect your staff
- Registration — Some version updates may require an updated registration code. Contact support if prompted for new registration after an update.
