Upgrade fulfillment process
Note: This process applies to Upgrade Plan customers who are eligible for a post-announce upgrade.
Adobe automatically places an order on behalf of qualifying customers for the new license. Adobe sends customers an upgrade fulfillment email that contains the license order number and a software media coupon. Serial numbers corresponding to these orders are available via the Adobe Licensing Website (LWS). The media coupon entitles licensing customers to a license upgrade, application DVD-ROM, and documentation if available.
The fulfillment process is the same for all Adobe products. Only dates and languages vary.
-
-
Within a few weeks of the new version shipping date, Adobe sends an upgrade fulfillment email to every eligible Upgrade Plan customer.
-
The email contains an order number (which is necessary to obtain new serial numbers) and a software media coupon.
-
Shipping dates vary by language. Adobe sends upgrade fulfillment emails as each language version ships.
-
