    Hello John,

    As stated in the guide, running EV9 databases on SQL2012 is not supported. This does not imply it does not work, it is simply not supported. You run the risk of running into issues, and when support finds you run EV9 on SQL2012, they probably will not help, until you go back to SQL2005/2008.

    What I would do is to upgrade to EV10 first, then move to SQL2012.

    Correct, the earliest version of EV to work on SQL 2012 is EV10.0.2.
