I got an error "Found a local update that is newer than this one" while moving Update set from dev to test instance. If I accept the remote update in test will I again get the error when I move this update set to production?

Hi,

If you accept -> the copy from your update set will get overridden in the target instance

Whether you get that error in production depends on

1) if during this update set movement it again finds a local copy which is newer then you will get it

In general if you follow the update set migration order from Dev to Test and getting this error then high chances that if you follow the same order of migration from Test to Production you will get that error

It depends if there is a update present in prod which is latest then you will get the error.

 

You can mark it as accept remote update(if the updates in prod are not relevant) and it will work fine.

 

If you skip in the test then also you will get the error if there is a latest update in prod.
