Software Configuration - Global Update

The software programs can be configured and updated in the Run Global Update window in the "Texada Settings" on the System tab of the Configure System Settings and is for use by Texada Support.

The primary function of this utility is to install new software, or install an update on an existing system. Programs files will be updated. Data and temp files are created. File structures may be modified, and default values may be set.

Note: The utility Create Required Files can also be used to re-create missing temporary files.

This process should only ever be initiated when no one else is using the software.
An option is provided to clear users as outlined in Active Sessions During Update.
However use this with caution, as clearing a user may interrupt and prevent the completion of processing.

It is also critical that all posting functions be completed prior to running this utility, as file structures may be changed by the update process, and any Bank Reconciliation transactions that have not yet been finalized, may be lost.

Before any update is installed, a complete backup should be made of all programs and data files.

In the event that there were errors running the update utility, if an operator is able to sign into another session, a warning will be triggered as outlined in System Update Running.

Note: After a software update has been installed if a Web App or Open Client session is not displaying the associated updated manual version, the browser cache may need to be cleared on the device.
The manual version is displayed on the Texada SRM Menu page.

Custom Configuration:
If prompted, enter your SCS Customer Number, as outlined in Custom Customer Configuration.
This is important for firms that have custom processing in order to ensure the correct custom programs are included in the system configuration.

Consult Texada Support for guidance using this utility.
