It's also a good idea to read the documentation regarding transformer updates, there are some important things to consider regarding possible differences in behavior between certain versions:

Hi @NFC, if you are using FME 2016 or later, you can find a menu command called "Upgrade Transformer" in the right-click menu on an upgradable transformer. Also, all the upgradable transformers in the workspace are listed under the "Upgradable Transformers" node in the Navigator.

Thanks for your replay and Sorry for waste your time. I using FME 2015 and Not found that feature of upgrade in it, so I installed 2017, this feature in 2017 just LIKE what I want. It's perfect.
