Purpose

This document describes how to install and configure iVend Retail in different scenarios.

Target Audience

This document is designed for end users or consultants.

Hardware and Software Requirements

Please refer “Hardware & Software Specifications Guide” for this.

Installation Preparations

Before installing add-ons with SAP Business One Add-On Administration, you should:

Create a backup file of all your company’s production databases.

Check all hardware and software requirements as per the list given in “Hardware

Software Specifications Guide”

SQL Server 2008 and its services are up and running

iVend Components

There are five components that may be installed in an iVend implementation.

Enterprise Server

The Enterprise Server is where enterprise information is entered and wheresettings are made that affect all stores in the system. The Enterprise Server is where

data from all stores is consolidated.

Store Server

The Store Server is where information is entered about each store and

where settings are made affecting the behavior and limitations of each user and

each Point of Sale register. Master record information is synchronized to and fromthe Enterprise Server at this server. This primarily install database for the store andthe replication service on the machine.




of 58

Point of Sale

Each register has a point of sale client installed through which all forms ofsales transactions are conducted.

SAP Business One Integration Service

SAP Business One Integration Service provides the setting and means to

communicate data to and from the Enterprise Server and to monitor that activity.

Management Console

Management console connects to either Enterprise Server or Store Serverfor proving the User Interface for the data store on these servers. Based on the

database server it is connected to, from Management Console settings for theEnterprise or Store can be defined. Inventory transactions including inventory

movement, pricing and discounts can be managed from this User Interface.

iVend API

iVend API’s enables users to synchronize data between iVend Mobile and iVend Enterprise

and also enables you to integrate iVend with third party applications or ERP’s.

Database Mirroring For High Availability

Caution

If your servers are not in domain and you are using workgroups then please contactCitiXsys for configuring the database mirroring for iVend.

Prerequisites

All the database servers should have the same version of SQL Server installations.

Servers

This setup would require the following 3 SQL Servers

a. Principal Server: This is the server that has the principal CXSRetail database which is

to be mirrored.

b. Mirrored Server: This server would host the mirror copy of the principal database.

c. Witness Server: This server helps in automatic switching of database in case of

principal server failures.

Change the Recovery Model of iVend database

1. Right click on the “CXSRetail” database and then select properties from the context

menu.

2. In properties windows select the Options tab from the left menu as shown below.

3. Change the values of Recovery Model from current value of Simple to Full.

4. Click OK button to save the settings.
