Installation Note 70435: Instructions for updating the Java Plug-In when prompted in SAS® Merchandise Planning 6.8 Hot Fix 12 and later
 |  |  |  |
In certain circumstances, when logging on to the application, you might receive a prompt that you need to update your Java Plug-In in SAS Merchandise Planning.
There are a couple of reasons why this prompt might occur:
- The Java Plug-In installed on your laptop or desktop is old.
- You received a new laptop or desktop that does not have the appropriate Java Plug-In installed.
To install the appropriate Java Plug-In required by SAS Merchandise Planning, complete the following steps:
Note: The Java Download page is for 64-bit Java for Windows. However, the application uses the 32-bit version of Java.
- Scroll down to the bottom of the page. You will find a link for all Java 8 downloads, as shown in the following image:
- Select Windows Offline filesize: 56.91 MB.
- After the file downloads to your laptop or desktop, open the file.
- Click the Install button.
Java will begin to install.
Once the installation is completed, a message that the installation was successful should occur.
