MULTI USER INSTALL

For Multi-user installations, all 1099 Pro® software requires that one machine is designated as a Server and all others as Workstations. The Server may be any Windows® machine on the network or having a local or remote drive accessible by all computers that will function as Workstations

To perform the Server installation:

  1. Determine the network computer, drive and folder in which to install your software. All Workstations must have full rights to this folder.

  2. Install your software on the network computer to be designated as the Server. Enter your Multi-User Activation Code when prompted. Select Server Installation  as the Install Type. Allow the program files to reside on the local or remote drive.

  3. After successfully installing your software to the network, click on the 1099/W-2/1042-S Pro® icon on your desktop. The Getting Started Wizard will walk you through setting up the software. By default, Audit Trails are enabled and Security is disabled.*

  4. After completing the Getting Started Wizard, re-launch your software. Administrators use “Administrator ” for the User ID and the Password “NEW ” to logon for the first time with Security enabled. The Administrator should create users and assign rights prior to installing 1099 / W-2 / 1042-S Pro® on Workstations.

* You are encouraged to enable Security. If Security is disabled, ANY USER on ANY WORKSTATION can access your software and View/Modify Administrator settings and all data. This includes the potential for ANYONE to create himself as Administrator and lock you out of the software.

To perform the Workstation installation:

  1. Be sure to open the server installation & set security On or Off before proceeding.

  2. Complete Server installation prior to installing Workstation(s).

  3. Locate the Server installation drive and folder from the Workstation. To map the Server installation’s network drive from a Workstation, open Windows Explorer from each Workstation. Locate the network drive, right click your mouse and select Map Network Drive. Each installation will refer to this drive as the Global Data Path.

  4. Install your software on the Workstation. Enter your Multi-User Activation Code when prompted. Select Workstation Installation  as the Install Type. Browse for the network drive and folder of the Server installation (e.g., X:\1099 Pro\Pro99T13\ where “X” is the mapped Network Drive). Allow the program files to reside on the local drive (e.g., C:\1099 Pro\Pro99T13).

  5. If the Administrator enabled Security, then the Workstation is deemed a “user.” Upon first entering your software at the Workstation, a User ID (as assigned by the Administrator) is required. For the Password enter “NEW ”. The User is then required to create a unique password.
