Internet Setup
This option allows you to set up your Internet connection in order to send reports, lists and documents to any person or institution by e-mail. You need to specify your e-mail’s outgoing mail server, as setup in your e-mail account on your computer system by your Internet Service Provider (ISP). You need to then test your E-mail server, and view the test log file from this option, before you can send any reports, lists and documents via e-mail. The test to your e-mail server must be successful before this option will work.
- If you need to connect to the Razor Server and Update transactions to
the Server, the Network must also be setup and configured. To use the
Razor Accounting Server, you need to install the Plug-ins on the TurboCASH
Plug-ins CD. If you have set up any other users on the system, that
user’s User ID (that is logged on in this Set of Books) and their
e-mail address will be displayed on this screen.
