Installing a New Version

When using Project Connector with Microsoft Project, you are prompted to download a new version when it becomes available. You should upgrade and take advantage of the new features, software fixes, and product enhancements.

Important:

OpenAir Projects Connector became SuiteProjects Pro Project Connector with version 4.6.0, released on February 19, 2025, following the rebranding of NetSuite OpenAir to NetSuite SuiteProjects Pro. If you are updating Project Connector from version 4.5.1 or earlier, the latest version changes the default location of the installation folder as well as some of the application file locations and names.

After you update Project Connector from version 4.5.1 or earlier to the latest version and you verify that the latest version works as expected, you should delete any remaining files from the following locations:

  • OpenAir Projects Connector Program files (typically, C:\Program Files (x86)\OpenAir\Project\ unless you chose a different location during installation).

  • OpenAir Projects Connector user application data files (C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\OpenAir\Project\ and C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\OpenAir\Project64\, where <username> is your Windows user name).

To install a new version:

  1. In Microsoft Project, go to the Add-ins ribbon.

  2. Select Account Settings under the SuiteProjects Pro add-in menu and connect to your SuiteProjects Pro account. For more information, see Connecting Microsoft Project with Your SuiteProjects Pro Account.

  3. Select any of the Pull SuiteProjects Pro resources, Pull from SuiteProjects Pro or Push to SuiteProjects Pro actions under the SuiteProjects Pro add-in menu.

    If you are not using the latest version of Project Connector, a window appears asking you to download the latest version.

  4. Click Yes.

    The setup wizard appears.

  5. Click Next.

  6. A prompt to exit Microsoft Project may appear. If so, exit Microsoft Project then click OK to continue.

  7. Follow the installation steps. For more information, see Installing Project Connector.
