Receive Outlets

This screen allows to select which outlets you want to receive, where from and to start of the transfer.

Outlet Selection

Select which outlets you want to transfer by ticking the box on the right of the outlets list.

  • Select All / Deselect All will either tick or un-tick all outlets.

For the 'receive' part of the process, it is only necessary to tick the outlets you are interested in. When you come to the 'install' part, you will need to consider which audits you are interested in.

Where to Receive From

  • If you select the Disk transfer, you can choose which disk from the list available.

  • The Network option will list all of the networked paths you have configured within StockManager.

  • The Email option will use the folder set up on the Settings screen. Before running the Remote Links program, you should save the attached files on the email into the Email Folder. The files must reside directly in the Email Folder, i.e. they should not be within a sub-folder.

  • The Cloud option will use the folder set up on the Settings screen.

  • The FTP option will use the folder set up on the Settings screen.

Receiving

If your computer is expecting an outlet for the first time, it will not appear in the outlet list. Click on the Create Outlet button and type in the number of the outlet. The "New Outlet" will appear in the list and you will be able to select it.

If the outlets were zipped up on the other computer, you will need to tick the UnZip files box.

Click on the Receive button. This will transfer the outlet data and put it in the in-box ready for installing.

The outlets that are ticked will now be showing the available audits that are in the in-box, e.g. 24-26. You now have the option of changing the audits that you actually want to be installed.

  • Current Audits will set both the start audit number and the end audit number to the most recent audit.

  • Reset Audits will set the start audit number to 1 and the end audit number to the most recent audit.

Installing

If you tick the Update Outlet Details option, then when an outlet is installed, details of the outlet on your computer will be overwritten with details from the remote computer. This will include the outlet name, address, manager's name, etc.

Click on the Install button and you will be given a message to indicate it has completed.
