Jeremy,
I have an Energy Trading customer (Oil&Gas, Power) who wishes to implement a forms routing, business process control, electronic document management system, with eventual document archiving. My experiences with MOSS have been where its mainly used as an Archive solution for important Project ‘Documents of Record’. Everyone always ‘talks’ about document routing, and electronic signature.
- Can MOSS 2010 address these needs?
- What is it bringing to help Enterprise customers?
- Do you know of any Trading applications which use MOSS for Forms management and routing?
- Am I lost here?

Thanks for your excellent attention to MOSS.
Keep up the good and vigilant work.
-da

Hi Terri, Microsoft is bring out an ‘Upgrade checker’ but I believe this is only for WSS 3.0 and 2007. Read more here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd793607.aspx
My advice is to wait for more official news from Microsoft when they release the beta version of SharePoint 2010 before you migrate to 2007. We will have more information about this. I have worked with many Microsoft products where I have migrated my clients from an old version to the latest version (skipping a middle version) without any hassles.

Here is something worth considering.. the worst case scenario is, upgrade your SPS 2003 to 2007 (using a MOSS 2007 enterprise trial key) and then on to SharePoint 2010..
Let me know how you go.

Hello Jeremy,

You say that SP 2010 will afford easy migration from SPS2003 and MOSS 2007. We are currently in SPS2003 and have been told that we have to migrate to 2007 BEFORE we can move to 2010. Is that true?

Thanks,

Terri
