Updating Multiple Workstations

Program Updates Overview

Program updates must be installed on each Point of Sale workstation in each store. If you update some workstations or stores, and not others, those that have not been updated may not be able to access the Point of Sale company data or exchange information with Headquarters.

Each workstation can download and install an update independently, or one workstation within each store can download the update to a shared network folder (specified in workstation preferences), in which case each workstation will be prompted to install from this location.

To download and install update files, a workstation must be connected to the Internet or be configured to use the shared download folder.

When updating multiple workstations:

- Be sure all workstations have access to the update before installing on any workstation.

- Close Point of Sale on your client workstations and install on the Server Workstation first.

- After the update has been installed on the Server Workstation and Point of Sale restarted, install on the client workstations one at a time.
