PEG Template Installation - Existing User

Before updating your Caseware/CPA Canada PEG template, we recommend that the license administrator create a backup of your existing master template. After an administrator downloads and updates the master template, users can proceed to update each of the existing client files to ensure all functionality and content updates are made.
