Question

I want to be able to have Reckon Accounts out the back of store and Reckon Desktop POS out the front, how can this be done?

Answer

This is possible but it is recommended that you have the reckon Accounts company database (*.QBW) on the back PC and the Reckon Desktop POS database (QuickPOS.PDB) on the front PC.  This way the back PC can be rebooted through the day without effecting the Point-of-Sale terminals.

Install Reckon Accounts on your back PC and map a drive to the front PC.  Install Reckon Desktop POS Administrator (this must be present on the same machine as Reckon Accounts) and store the QuickPOS.PDB on the mapped drive out the front.

Install Reckon Desktop POS on the front PC and when asked for the location of the Reckon Desktop POS database select the local drive it is residing on that PC.

If you report Tax on a cash basis you cannot record a negative line item that has a different tax code than the other line items on the invoice.
