Is there a conversion program that can be used to Add users from a VALENCE41 portal to a VALENCE51. All of our Portal users have i-series profiles. We could save several hours of manual creating these if there was a conversion process. Thanks in advance!

Normally we'd recommend using the VVMIGRATE routine to move from one release to another, but that copies everything (users, apps, environments, categories, etc), and it overwrites whatever's in the target instance.
If your VALENCE51 instance is already in use then it's a bit more complicated. You can't just copy user records from one instance to another, because the VVUSRID unique value would likely change. So if you can't overwrite the 5.1 instance via VVMIGRATE then it'd probably be faster to just set up individual users there manually. Alternatively, you could just set up the template user in Portal Admin > Settings so that users are auto-created when they first log in. They'd get a default group and environment membership setup, then you can tweak them individually as needed.
