December 3, 2018 - Conversions may need to be run after a change is delivered (1) out of sequence or (2) standard with an update.

These conversions are referred to as “Convert to File Structures,” commonly abbreviated to "CFS,” and help to reshape the data structure or file structures for the new code to work properly. CFSs vary in purpose, size, and the time each takes to run.
