Setting up your network software

Now that the physical aspects of your network are assembled and ready to go, it’s time to sit down at each of your computers on the network and prepare them for AccountEdge.

Not all of these tasks need to be performed in a particular order, but you might discover that it’s easier to prepare your systems if you do these steps in the order shown below.

  1. Checking and installing network protocols
  2. Installing AccountEdge
  3. Setting up file sharing, mapping network drives and creating shortcuts
  4. Optimizing AccountEdge to ensure it’s running as fast as it can

Warning: Only advanced computer users should perform these tasks

Although we recommend that the designated system administrator in your office or one of our MYOB Certified Consultants handle the tasks of setting up your network software, you can attempt to perform these steps yourself. Keep in mind, however, that we strongly recommend that a qualified network specialist perform these tasks.
