Creating a New Database - The Program Mode Register

This page describes the Program Mode register in the Technics module.

---

The Program Mode register allows you to control the operation of the server. It is in the Technics module, so to work with it from a client you must make sure you are the only user logged into the system, and you should be logged in as a system administrator with access to the Technics module as described towards the end of the Access Groups page. You may also be able to work in the server database itself using the GUI (client) application.

To open the Program Mode register, first use the [Switch Module] button in the Navigation Centre or the Ctrl-0/⌘-0 keyboard shortcut to go into the Technics module, then click the [Registers] button, also in the Navigation Centre. Double-click 'Program Mode' in the resulting list.

The Program Mode register contains the following fields:

Server Card

Server Port
Specify the Port that you want to be used for TCP/IP communication between the Standard ERP server and its clients. The default is 1200. If you have more than one copy of Standard ERP running different databases on the same server (not recommended), you must enter a different unique Server Port number in each database.

If you change the Server Port or put one in for the first time, you must restart the server application for the change to take effect.

Default Company
If you have more than one Company in your database and you would like a particular one to be used by default when you launch Standard ERP, enter the Code of that Company here. The next time you launch Standard ERP, the Company specified here will be opened automatically and the 'Select Company' window will not appear. If you need to work in a different Company, click the [Cancel] button when the 'Login' window appears.

This field is the only field in this register that only applies to single-user systems.

Web Card

Web Port
As well as a Server Port, you should specify a Web Port. The Web Port will be used for the following connections to your server:

  • Web clients (described towards the end of this page)

  • Web shop clients

  • Version updates controlled from your MyStandard page

  • REST API clients

If you change the Server Port or put one in for the first time, you must restart the server application for the change to take effect.

Bind IP Card

Bind to IP Address
Use this field if your server machine has several network cards/interfaces with separate IP addresses. Specify here which one of those IP addresses you want to use for communication between the Standard ERP server application and its clients.

Other Cards

The remaining fields in this register are only required for specialised situations such as using a Web Shop. You can leave them blank when setting up a standard data server.

For details about setting up a Web Shop, please refer to your local HansaWorld representative.

Click the [Save] button in the Button Bar to save the changes you have made. If you have entered a Server Port and/or a Web Port for the first time (or changed the ones that were already there), restart the Standard ERP server to allow the changes to take effect.
