Setting database location to SQL Server

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 100
Hello,I'm looking to move teh POS system database from the local MSDE database to a SQL server.  I've restored a recent backup (.bck) to a SQL server machine on our network and I'm looking for information on how to reconnect the POS to teh new SQL server.  Before we go live I will restore a new backup but I'm just testing the solution for now.The overall plan is to separate teh database from teh cash register and allow SQL server to perform backups and other normal database task. Is there a separate configuration tool for changing data connection information?Can the configuration be changed in the POS and if so I'm guessing it would be available to users with the owner’s role only?Thanks,

 Larry
