Installation and update overview

If you are re-installing Infor Program Cost Ledger 10.4.1, you must execute the following steps to delete the existing Infor Program Cost Ledger 10.4.1 content:

  • Delete the PCL_10_4_1_Rep_DB database from the SQL server
  • Delete the PCL_10_4_1_OLapdb file from \Documents\Infor\BI\OLAP\Data\
  • Delete the PCL_10_4_1_Repository Repository Registration from the Repository administration
  • Delete the BI Project Manager web service or other specified web service from IIS in Sites\Default web sites
  • Delete the folder, including the subfolders from <installation folder>\Infor Program Cost Ledger 10.4.1. The default installation folder, BI, is at C:\\Program Files (x86)\Infor.

In theory, it is possible to install and run Infor Program Cost ledger 10.4.1 together with an older version, on the same server. When multiple Infor program cost Ledger versions exist, each Infor program Cost Ledger version must have own Business Vault base data stored, repository database, web service and so on. However, it is recommended to remove the older Infor Program Cost Ledger version from the server. See the Installation Guide of the Infor Program Cost Ledger.
