CAUTION If you have made previous customisations to your CRM's Invoice, Quote, Accounts or Contacts module, some of those customisations MAY be overwritten. Files that are of concern are listed below. If you have access to your webserver and can check for the existence of these files, it may be worth renaming/backing them up. If files are located in the following locations, they are backed up and renamed with the word BACKUP and a time stamp appended to them
