    How Do I Setup Another Register/Office Machine?

    by RetailEdge Moderator » Tue Jan 24, 2006 3:00 pm

    To set up another register or office machine you should: Have your Windows 95/98 network setup and confirm that the two computers are communicating with each other. Install RetailEdge on the secondary machine On the second machine you should choose Options from the Tools menu and press on the Network tab. On the network tab set the: Data Folder to the data directory on the primary register. You can use the Universal Naming Convention (UNC) to specify this directory. For instance, if the data is on a in the Program Files\RetailEdge 7.0\Data directory on a computer called Register, the data directory can be specified as \\Register\C\Program Files\RetailEdge 7.0\Data. You can change this, however, we strongly recommend that you keep your RetailEdge data on the primary register, so that if your network goes down you can still ring in sales. Network Folder to the same Network folder at the primary machine. You can also use the UNC. Unique Register ID and Name. Then press OK. Check your inventory and customer files to make sure that you are viewing the data on the main register. Note: A RetailEdge license allows you to have RetailEdge running on one machine at a time. If you would like to have a license for a secondary machine, please call us at 800-755-9692.
