Which type of store are you configuring?

Headquarters

Remote store

Configuring Store Exchange includes specifying or confirming:

- Whether you are a Headquarters or remote store

- The number of stores you have and assigning store codes to each (Headquarters only)

- The Store Exchange method you will use to communicate with other stores

- The license number for the Server Workstation at the other store(s) in your company

- The e-mail address, file transfer path, or drive that will be used to send files to other stores

- Protecting Store Exchange files with a security password (required: Learn more)

Important: Before beginning, be sure you have the license numbers from the Server Workstation at the other store(s). Until you have entered the license number from the other store(s) in your Store Exchange preferences, you will not be able to receive and process files from the store(s).

License numbers can be found on the Point of Sale CD holder, in the e-mail you received if downloading the program, or by selecting A bout Point of Sale from the Help menu at the Server Workstation in each store after installing.

Upgrader Note: Each store may have a new license number when upgrading from a previous version. Store Exchange will fail with a "License numbers do not match" error until your Store Exchange preferences have been updated with the new license numbers.
