Running Actinic from two systems

[Trevor M]

Hi

I have been running Actinic V6 from a machine based at home and would like to run the same system from a laptop.

I gather that there are some difficulties with this otherwise it might be totally impossible! I would like to be able to use both sytems to update and download, but not sure if this is possible.

Alternatively if I can use one for updating and the other for downloading that would be helpful. Or will I need to delete one of the stores completely?

Many thanks in advance for any help.

Trevor

Through checking either one of the 'Allow on this PC' options (under 'Business Settings | Options') you can specify whether a particular machine is used just for 'Catalog Maintenance' or just for 'Order Processing'. This means that one PC can just be used to maintain and upload a store to the web site whilst the other machine can be used solely for order processing from that catalogue.
To permanently disable the ability to upload from a machine that is simply processing the orders, remove all the templates from the system (all files of the form Act_*.html)

You cannot upload and download from both machines.

Kind regards,

Thanks Bruce

Is this the case in V7?
