Lading Manager™ Specifications

Software Configuration Options

Lading Manager may be set up on either a standalone PC or on a network.

System Configuration

Lading Manager runs on Microsoft^® Windows 98 Second Edition or Windows NT 4.0, 2000, XP platforms. Standalone installations require a minimum of 192 MB RAM. (If you have Windows 95 or the original Windows 98, it will not work on your PC. You must have Windows 98 Second Edition or later.)

Network Requirements

Network versions of Lading Manager require Microsoft^® SQL Server^® version 2000 or higher. Workstations should have at least 128 MB RAM. Network versions must be configured in a fileserver environment.

Security

Lading Manager can be configured as a secure system. When secured, each user must login with an I.D. and a password. Your designated system administrator will assign security allowances to each user I.D. defined to the system. Security is an option and is not required.

Printing

This software uses Crystal Decisions' Crystal Reports for all of its printing. Your PC's Windows printer drivers are used. It is highly recommended that a laser printer be used to print your bills, as a dot matrix (or inkjet) may not print the bar codes to industry standards.

If you need multiple copies of the bill for signature purposes, there are laser papers that contain the chemicals that make them carbonless copies that you can write through. Xerox® is one known manufacturer of this type of paper.

Lading Manager will allow you to default a number of copies to print, making it easier to print your bills on laser printers.
