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

Considerations
  • When the Overwrite Previous Package option is enabled, these options become available as part of package configuration:
Merge
During installation by a subscriber, the new Package items are merged with the subscribers' existing database (previous package)
Overwrite
During installation by a subscriber, the new Package items overwrite the subscribers' existing database (previous package)
  • If the subscriber has created new items/platform elements, they are not affected (unless there is a naming conflict, in which case, the published package will overwrite the subscriber-created items)
