Reference data often changes between versions of the software. These changes can include deletions and additions to reference data, as well as modifications to existing data formats and locations. After you upgrade your plant data using the Smart Engineering Manager Upgrade Utility, you can use the Upgrade Reference Data command in Smart P&ID Options Manager to upgrade styles, template files, symbols, and assemblies.
