Your upgrade. A clear way forward.
Proceed with upgrade planning; resolve the named incompatible dependencies before retaining those functions at cutover.
22 observations organised into 8 work packages. A work package groups related decisions and tests; it is not an effort estimate.
Decisions that move the programme forward
Class removed
Replace the reference. The type does not exist at the target, so the customisation will not compile; find the supported equivalent or remove the dependency.
Validate changed datatypes against actual usage
Validate existing values and every cited consumer against the new type, including case, rounding, range and truth semantics. A metadata difference alone does not establish a failing operation.
Method removed
Check each cited site. The class survives but this member does not, so a call compiles today and fails at the target.
Attribute removed
Change every cited site before cutover. The column is gone at the target: a read throws and a write fails.
Clear ownership. A test for every decision.
Agree retained business functions, target products and the named compatibility decisions.
Run the data checks, complete technical work packages and exercise the affected journeys.
Reassess the upgraded export and record target-runtime and business acceptance.
Where the work goes
| Workstream | Packages | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Resolve before cutover | 1 | A demonstrated incompatible dependency or unmet prerequisite. Resolve or retire the affected function before cutover. |
| Validation required | 6 | A named data, binding, provider or behaviour check settles the consequence. A failure has not been established. |
| Product and environment decisions | 1 | Confirm products, extensions and installation-specific definitions against the intended target. |
| Information appendix | 0 | Release context and uncited inventory differences, retained for traceability. |
The programme view contains the complete work list. The assurance view contains coverage, provenance and remaining evidence requests. Budgets and dates are agreed against the work packages.
Coverage boundary: 1 presentation-binding occurrences remain unresolved by static analysis. These are coverage gaps, tracked separately from the finding counts.
