## Prepare Live domain
The A4 Apparel .HTAccess will need to be altered to temporarily redirect ALL traffic to a holding page informing users of the update and offering a telephone number / email address ( should only be live for about 20 mins ). Obviously will need to create the page for this one too!

## Prepare www.a4apparel.co.uk.xml
Port in the current configuration settings to the domain specific config file - change **status** to *online*

## Copy the Database over to a4apparel.co.uk
The new System Database will have to be dumped and then imported - once its in scan for any references to bookdevon.com and change them to a4apparel.co.uk

## Add an SSL certificate to A4 Apparel
The Quickbooks sync module wont work without SSL enabled across the site

## Alter the In House Quickbooks servers connection
Use the system to generate a new .qwc file and add it in to the A4 QB Server

## Take a full backup of current site
Just incase of problems we will keep a gzipped archive ready to push back in the event of problems

## Move System
Compress the bookdevon.com system ( entire home dir ), transfer with SSH SCP ( GitWiki should have instructions on it ). Use Cpanel to uncompress it and then cleanup the remnants.
