Applies To: Dynamics CRM 2015

You can upgrade Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 organizations by using Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2015 Deployment Manager to import them into the Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2015 deployment.

Tip

You can implement the procedure described here by using a Windows PowerShell cmdlet. For more information, see Administering Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2015 by using Windows PowerShell.

Upgrade an organization by importing it

During the import process, the Import Organization Wizard detects the version and upgrades the organization automatically.

Important

Before you import, upgrade, or update a Microsoft Dynamics CRM organization, you should back up the configuration and organization databases.

Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0 and Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 organizations are not supported for import with Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2015.

Upgrade an organization in-place

If the Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 deployment contains additional organizations, those organizations are disabled and are not upgraded. You must manually choose to upgrade those organizations by using the steps described here.

Use Deployment Manager to upgrade organizations

  1. On the Deployment Manager home page, in the console tree, click Organizations.

  2. In the details pane for each organization, review the Version column.

  3. For each organization where the Version is earlier than the latest version installed, right-click the organization, and then click Upgrade Organization.
