Manual SIMS/FMS/Discover Upgrades

For schools NOT using SOLUS3 to deploy their SIMS/FMS/Discover upgrades please advise them to check the following location for the latest upgrade files:

http://solus2.scomis.org/latest-release-files/

In this folder you will find the latest Capita upgrade files for SIMS, FMS and Discover. These files are direct from Capita and as such are password protected. The passwords for the files can be obtained from:

https://myaccount.capita-cs.co.uk/Notifications/SIMS-Release-Download-Links/  (requires login)

Once the files are downloaded and unzipped, the school will have an .iso file that can either be burnt onto CD/DVD media and run or Mounted within Windows and run from there.

Below is a document which details the process in more detail that can be sent to the school:
