Notes:

  • InstallDir: Target directory for the Aurea CRM web offline installation.
  • DatabasePath: Path to the local database file.
    Note: The user must have full access to these directories.

    Aurea recommends specifying a dedicated target directory for InstallDir and DatabasePath (e.g. InstallDir =C :\ update.CRM) and defining sufficient access rights for this directory: This ensures that users working with Aurea CRM web offline are able to create and modify files and folders (Write/Modify rights).

  • StationNumberClient: Used as fallback if the user has no offline station defined in the database.
  • COMUserName /Password: Specify a dedicated communication user for the client (e.g. because the offline user has no module rights for mmco.exe). Enter user name and password as plain text.
  • PrepareSilentDeinstallation: Set this option to "Y" if you want to be able to silently uninstall Aurea CRM web offline. For further details, see Uninstalling.
