  • What software is installed for the Service Engineers Tablet ?

    Service Mobile is installed as described in the installation guide (please click below to download this for reference), once installed manually via IIS the install creates a web.config file and during install, we have to say what sage 200 company to point the tablet software to.

    NB: if this will be to a sage 200 test company first, once testing is complete prior to going live the web.config file would need to be changed to point to the new live company; noting it’s the company name, not the database name.

    Ahead of install the customers I.T department will need to set up an external address and purchase a SSL Certificate if they want to access it without a VPN, otherwise it will only be accessible on their network. I.T departments will know about SSL certificates and this information will need to be advised before the install is carried out.

  • How do we connect to carry out Service training?

    One trainee/multiple trainees in a single location | We will connect via TeamViewer to take over your PC and will contact you on the number given above.

    Multiple trainees across a number of locations | We will contact the main trainee as above and take over their PC using TeamViewer. We will then share the screen with the remote trainees and contact everyone via conference call to start the session.

    We ask that you check with your IT department prior to the initial training session that there will be no firewall issues in using this method of connection. If there are likely to be security issues, please contact your project administrator and we will be happy to find a solution.

  • Will the product training happen at the same time as a Service installation?

    No. This will be scheduled with the relevant parties after the installation. This allows for any issues found during installation to be resolved and ensure all systems are working as they should be.
