Hello Fatima,
We did a similar upgrade, TMS 2012 to 2018.
The biggest change I remember is LoanObjStatus is no longer in the LoanObjXrefs table (that field is now LoanObjStatus_OLD). There is now a LoanObjStatuses table with a LoanObjStatusID, etc. This is true for AltNumDescriptions too (in 2020, there is an AltNums.Description_OLD field and a new AltNumDescriptions table). Quite a few reports needed to be rewritten due to these changes. If you have reports with the aforementioned fields, they will no longer work with the new, 2020 data structure.

Subject: Issues to look for in TMS upgrades?
External Email - Exercise Caution
Hello folks!
We are upgrading from TMS 2012 to TMS 2020. Happy Day!
We are getting ready to review the test instance, and I am not sure what I should be looking out for. What issues have other institutions come across as they upgrade? Any other suggestions of things to keep an eye on?
Thanks muchly,
Fatima
