H2 is an improved version of H1, but it works in a completely different way. This brings un a new issue: How to upgrade all the content previously created in H1 to H2?
The PCA, since v1.6.0, introduced two new features to aid in this upgrade process: Metadata Conversion and Data Transfer.
Metadata Conversion basically generates a new Program converting the original H1 settings into H2 configurations, and while Data Transfer copies all the original Assessment data stored in H1 and links that data to the new H2 version of a Program.

Considerations when upgrading from H1 to H2: The HNQIS2 Metadata Package is required to enable the Metadata Conversion and Data Transfer features. The H1 version of the Program is kept and will still be functional after the Metadata Conversion, however, it is recommended to remove any Sharing Settings from the original Program to block the access. The Assessment Data captured in the H1 version of the Program is also kept after the Data Transfer, this is to ensure that no historical data is lost. At any point after the Metadata Conversion is completed, the Assessment Stage of the newly created H2 Program should be checked using the Validate function and then the Program Rules should be built by using the Set Up Program button. This step is required for new data entry.
