Important RTG Bills Upgrade Installation Notes

  1. Installing an Upgrade is different from installing an Update. See the instructions above for installing Updates.
  2. If it is over one year since you purchased TMBills, you need a new license key to upgrade to a new version of RTG Bills. If you have Upgrade Protection from us, please call us for a new code. Allow two business days to receive your code. You may purchase a new license key for $20 (price subject to change) directly from RTG Software at: http://www.rtgsoftware.com/orderupg.htm

  4. At the Select Components window showing checkboxes for RTG Bills and RTG Timer, we recommend you uncheck RTG Timer and leave RTG Bills checked. Most of our customers do not use RTG Timer. Most enter time and expenses from within Time Matters or simply use the Fees button in RTG Bills.
    (Note: If you already have RTG Timer installed, please check the box for RTG Timer.)
