Report is needed only for purchases at least for our clients, probably it could be needed for sales, but that is not critical, unless the sales company needs to see the sales limit is approaching and there should be a new tender organised.
This is not the issue of upgrade SERP. But serverip.dat in this case contains the value: 192.168.88.12:1301, so this is local IP of the server with SERP.
Anyway I don't understand what do you me...
