Moving Standard Version from Single to Multi- User Environment

[admin]

=== QUESTION

We currently have AssetManage Standard install on a laptop as a single user. We would like to install this software on that laptop as the Administrator in a multi-user environment and place the reports, images and database on a server. Do I move the reports, data and image folder to the server and un-install the software and re-install the software on the laptop selecting Administrator in a Multi-user install. Selecting the paths on the server in the software and writing-over the database?

=== ANSWER

The way to do this is to create FOLDERS on your network for the IMAGES, REPORTS and DATA.

Make sure each user has both READ/WRITE access to these folders

Move all the files from the local folder to the corresponding network folder

Change the REPORT, IMAGES and DATA directories in the PREFERENCES (TOOLS > PREFERENCES) to point to the network folders.

To Quickly go to the REPORT, DATA or IMAGES folder select (FILE > GO TO DATA FOLDER, etc..) from the main menu.
