Overwrite Previous Package

The Overwrite Previous Package option gives Publishers the choice to Merge or Overwrite packages. The Merge/Overwrite choice is applied when a Subscriber installs a package.

The Overwrite Previous Package option is enabled by your Service Provider. The default single sign-on setting on on-premises installation is Off. The default single sign-on setting on the cloud is Off. (Contact Support to make changes.)

When the Overwrite Previous Package option is enabled, these options become available as part of package configuration:

Merge

Items in the previous package that were deleted by the packager remain on the subscriber's system.

Overwrite
