Upgrade templates

If you open a calculation for which a new template is available, a message appears that gives you options for upgrading the template.
You can apply the new template, or compare the template versions to determine if you want to use the new template or keep the existing one.
When you apply a new template, the upgrade is not complete until you select the
Save
 icon on the toolbar. If you close a calculation without saving changes, it reverts to the previous version.

note
When you open your upgraded calculation, the upgrade is not retained until you save the calculation, unless you used the bulk upgrade function. Bulk upgraded calculations are automatically saved.
Following an upgrade, we strongly recommend that all data is reviewed to ensure that the changes are as expected in accordance with these Release Notes. If satisfied that the changes are appropriate, only then should you save your calculation. If you are not comfortable with the changes, close the calculation without saving to revert back to your previous version.
