Upgrading SellerDeck EPOS to the latest Release

[G.W.Green]

Before you Begin

This guide covers upgrading EPOS 2.92 and above to the latest version of SellerDeck EPOS. Users of versions older than 2.92 should contact support prior to upgrading.
It is strongly recommended that upgrades are carried out whilst the store is closed.

1. If you are running EPOS on a network, you should check the location of the shared databases. To do this, open EPOS on the remote tills (the ones that are connecting to the shared data), go to 'Setup | This Till' and select the 'Connect' tab. Note the paths to the shared databases. You will need this information to reconnect after upgrade. If you are not using EPOS in 'Network' mode, you can skip this step. Note in the example below that the databases are stored in the 'N:' drive
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
2. Close down SellerDeck EPOS. If you are using SellerDeck EPOS on a network, close down each instance of EPOS
3. Locate the 'checkout' folder on your computer through 'Windows Explorer', by default this is 'C:\checkout'
4. Take a copy of the 'checkout' folder and keep it safe. If you are using EPOS on more than one machine, make sure the 'checkout' folder is backed up on each machine

Installation and Upgrade

1. Download the latest installer of SellerDeck EPOS from our website: http://www.sellerdeck.co.uk/index.ph...-till-software
2. With all copies of EPOS on the network closed, run the installer.
   Note: If you are running with EPOS on more than one machine, run the installer on the machine with the shared databases first.
3. Run the installer on all copies of EPOS on your network. EPOS should remain closed whilst this process is carried out.
   Note: A satisfactory installation can be achieved by accepting the default settings. If you do not require SellerDeck Link to be installed, you can uncheck it when prompted. SellerDeck Link only needs to be installed on one till, this would normally be the main till or back office machine with the shared database.
4. Once EPOS has been installed on all required machines, open EPOS on the machine with the shared databases on it, then go into the 'Sales Screen'. If you receive any errors at this point, please contact SellerDeck Technical Support.
5. If you are running EPOS on a network, open EPOS on the remote machine, go to 'Setup | This Till' and select the 'Connect' tab.
6. Click the small square next to 'Path to Data', browse to the shared 'Data.mdb'. Repeat for 'Path to Transaction Data', 'Path to Order Data', Path to Stock Data', and 'Path to Z Read Data'.
7. If you have more than one till connected remotely, repeat steps 4 and 5 above on the extra tills.
