Can 2 different user run 2 database on Smabapos at a time

[madiha]

this wont be suitable because i want the item sale report to be user based also

[madiha]

@Jesse

I can not think of a reason why you want 2 databases though?

sometimes you just have to follow instructions while knowing a better solution does exists

[madiha]

@Jesse

allow multiple instances in your sambasettings.txt file

how will i achieve to do that?

[neko]

do you mean that each ticket need to be assigned to a user? do you want to track the sales or the cash?

[madiha]

need to track both cash and sale

[neko]

would be best if you can give a bit more detail of your process? who and when? what to track at the end of the day

Some requests for better use on the touch. Use Sambapos on touch devices. Use Sambapos in RDP

When you copy SambaSettings.txt file from App Path to User Path SambaPOS Local Settings becomes windows user account based. So you can assign different terminals per windows user. This is the most important thing to know when you need more control on RDP configurations while running RDP devices and also use SambaPOS as a regular terminal on same computer. [image] You can read more about it at the end of this tutorial. When you assign a terminal for each windows user you can configure se…

Can 2 different user run 2 database on Smabapos at a time

the main purpose is to have independent user based sale report and when they end the work poriod their reports are printed. i know i can use custom reports but currently its having the formatting issue so for Manager i set database A for Cashier set database B using rdp Cashier can access his terminal while Manager is using his terminal correct? i thought i would face problem coz only one instance of samba can run

[Jesse]

How are you going to reconcile the two databases? Manually? Are you tracking inventory? You can do this yes but you may want to explore other options once you get that working.

What you are doing is not efficient and there is plenty of support to do what you want from within SambaPOS. But I understand if you feel this is your only route atm due to your issue. However it would be better if we could work out your issue though wouldnt it?

So basically what your doing is not user tracking your tracking terminals. What if manager signs into users computer to do sales? Or what if user signs into computer manager is using and does sales… that messes up your entire process.

It just seems like to me your going to cause yourself more issues than just formatting issue if you go this route. Obviously you can do what you feel you need too but why not focus on fixing the formatting issue?

[madiha]

i wont be reconiling, wont be tracking inventory and yes you are right it will be tracking terminal.

the purpose to keep track of the sales on terminals.

Be sure they are same version etc. You connect to any database the same using connection string. How did you make the 2nd database?

Hint connection string should be same only difference is database name. You are running 1 version of sql express right? It should house both databases.

[madiha]

well i backup the db 1 and create a new db2. then restore db1 on db2

[Jesse]

And how did you do this? With mssms or backup tool?

[madiha]

sql management studio

[madiha]

i managed to connect

but the message server not connected

[Jesse]

What do you need message server for? I thought you only had 2 terminals each with their own database?

[madiha]

ya correct…no need to have serve connected
