EMS | V2.13+ Client PC/ Workstation Installation


Since version 2.13 a client PC installer application is available, making setting up a new PC with Core by Premier a doddle for your IT team.

Requirements

  1. Administrator rights on the PC within Windows.
  2. A user that your IT can use to access PC locations within the software.
If your IT doesn't have a user, here is a guide on how to create one and set their permissions - https://support.journey.travel/portal/en/kb/articles/manage-users 

Process

1. On the server / another workstation, create a PC Location in Manager (or if multi-site, Administrator)
  1. Open Manager (or if multi-site, Administrator)
    1. Select General Menu

  1. PC Locations

  1. If multi-site, select the relevant site from the list on the right
    1. Plus button (Bottom Right)
    2. Enter a PC Description and Name
    3. Assign a till
    4. Green Tick
    5. Take note of the PCID that has been assigned to the newly created item

2. Browse to \\SERVERNAME\Workstation\, run the client installer application in this folder:
   

3. Click 'next'
4. Click Browse to search for the PremierConfig.xml file for LIVE (this should be in the Workstation folder as above)
5. Enter the environment name (LIVE for Production, TRAINING for Test)
6. Enter the PC location ID created earlier:
   

7. Click Next and select the required components (Crystal Reports)
    

8. Once the installer has completed, go to your program files > Premier Software > LIVE and find your Launcher.exe – Copy a shortcut to this to the Public Desktop and rename as required.

The install is complete.

Complete the same steps for TRAINING if required on the machine.

The first time the software runs, a client update may be ran to install local files (If you have had an update since your original installation, this will then download the update files automatically to the client machine).
