Converting Models from Earlier Versions

Models from earlier versions of AFT Fathom can be used with this version. In most cases, the model file can be opened in the newer version and automatically converted to the updated format. It is considered good practice to do a complete check on the model to ensure the conversion process was complete and accurate. In some cases, especially with older models (two or more versions behind), the automatic conversion is not successful. If this occurs, please contact our support team with a copy of the original model file.

Other files such as libraries (previously called "databases") or preference files can also be converted.

The Workspace Layers Import Assistant can be used for models created in versions prior to the existence of Workspace Layers. This tool allows views from Visual Report (which is now deprecated) and customized Workspace appearance to be preserved.
