What is Quickbooks database server manager ?

Question

It essentially enables users to set up QuickBooks server for multi-user access. For the company file on the host computer, this utility creates a network data file (.ND). Inuit's personal database management tool is another name for it. This fantastic program allows users to easily build network data files for company files stored on the host system or host workstation. If a user wishes to use numerous desktop versions of QuickBooks, he or she must first install this useful utility. It is important to remember that without this tool, the user would be unable to access multi-user mode. Each quickbooks database server manager version installed on the system adds a new user to the system.

Answer 1

1. Close all open programs on your server computer, including QuickBooks.
2. Open the install file you downloaded. It's called Setup_QuickBooks.exe.
3. Follow the onscreen instructions. If you need to find your product or license numbers.
4. When QuickBooks asks you to choose an install type, select Custom or Network Options. Then select Next. Don't select Express.
5. Choose the best option for your network setup and then select Next. Both options install the Database Server Manager. If QuickBooks Desktop is already installed on your server computer, this won’t overwrite any existing company data.
   1. If you want Database Server Manager and QuickBooks Desktop on your server computer, select I'll be using QuickBooks Desktop on this computer, AND I'll be storing... We strongly recommend this option.
   2. If you only want Database Server Manager on your server computer, select I will NOT be using QuickBooks Desktop...
6. Follow the rest of the onscreen instructions. When you’re ready, select Install. Windows may ask you for permission.
