Setting up BlueCherry for Database Synchronisation

If you have ordered Database Synchronisation as part of BlueCherry it is recommended you have one of our engineers perform this setup for you as we can ensure completion correctly, however it is understandable if a device is replaced that your IT team may wish to complete this installation.

You should already have installed the centralised database to your network, please request support for network configuration in the first instance if this is not already completed.

You will need to know the database server source, database name, and authentication method (either Active Directory, or you know the SQL Username and Password)

First install and activation BlueCherry as per installation instructions, choosing the Single Workstation Installation.

1. Navigate to the Setup Menu of BlueCherry in the top bar of the software.
2. Click the Advanced button
3. Click General tab
