The Global Convert utility lets you select and convert multiple practices (version 10 and newer) in the same root directory to the current Medisoft version at once. You use this utility by first selecting practices to convert in a selection window. You can select one practice, hold down the CTRL key and select multiple practices, or even click the Select All button to select all practices in the root directory. Once you select practice to convert, you run the utility in the Global Convert window.
The time it takes to convert practices depends on the file size of the practices. Consider running this utility during non-business intensive periods.
