CIC Migration Guide: Installation and Configuration Guide
Upgrade Your CIC Product Licenses
Before you migrate to CIC 2015 R1 or later from an earlier release, convert your existing license to a 4.0 license.
Important!
Genesys hasn't changed CIC licensing with the new distribution model. You still need a CIC 4.0 license. The CIC system won't function correctly unless you load a CIC 4.0 license.
Request a product upgrade
Since version 4.0 has a different license in several areas of the product, request a product upgrade first so that the Genesys Licensing Team can translate all old orders to the 4.0 license.
To request a product upgrade
-
Access one of the following:
-
If you are a customer, access the Activation File Management tool on the My Support Dashboard.
-
If you are a partner, access the Activation File Management tool on the Partner portal.
Note: You must have the appropriate credentials to access these sites.
