New setup of RMS

Its very easy. Here's from my experience because i just installed fresh copy

1. Decide which machine will host your database, take note of the computer name / ip address Make sure that the database services are started

2. Make sure your SQL 2008 has an account/login that can be used by RMS application

- it should have privileges to create table / backup database. If you dont know about any useraccount, just use "sa" user account built infrom SQL

1. Follow RMS installation Instruction - you will have 3 applications installed when it ends a) RMS Store Operations-POS b) RMS Store Operations-Administrator c) RMS Store Operations-Manager

2. Open the Store Operation Administrator, choose connect
3. Enter the detail : choose the database server name / fill it
4. Choose SQL Server Authentication
5. The database name at this point is irrelevant, but if you hit any problem choose "master"
6. Click OK
7. Choose Database from menu then choose Create
8. Follow the instruction and select a new database name for you to create
9. You will be prompted to populate the database from backup file
10. If it is a new database choose rmsdb.bak from /DBFiles folder
11. If you want to play around with sample database choose rmssample.bck from /DBFiles folder

1. Click next until its done

1. Choose Database menu, click "Select" choose the database then "OK"
2. Done

1. Now you can open the other 2 program

1. User id is "1", password is "password"

Good luck !

If you have database connection problem the Store operations POS and manager will not start I think you cannot have duplicate register number if you are using only 1 database

If your database connection needs to be restarted goto Control panel > Admin Tool > Services Choose the SQL Server service > Under general tab choose startup type automatic Under the Recovery type choose Restart service
