If you already have User Group Picker PRO™ already PRO and installed are installing Power Custom Fields Premium™Premium, consider the following precautionary measures:

  1. If you have a valid license of UGP PRO™, you are entitled to a PCF Premium™ license. You are entitled to a PCF license with a valid UGB PRO license.

    1. Contact us, and we'll help migrate your license from

      2. This process is not recommended.

  3. Migrating your UGP PRO license is the only correct thing to dorecommended, as new improvements and maintenance will only happen in PCF Premium™ from now onbe implemented into PCF.

  4. Both UGP PRO™ PRO and PCF Premium™ Premium will continue to function in parallel, however . However we strongly recommend that you uninstall the UGP PRO™PRO at your earliest convenience because the migration task happens only once. 

  5. Do NOT create more custom fields via UGP PRO™. You have all functionality in the PCF Premium™ edition.After installing PCF Premium™ and uninstalling UGP PRO™ we strongly recommend you to restart Jira and perform PRO. All PCF Pro functionality exists in PCF.
