I have e7 v2.7 running and recently bought a new PC with Windows 7. I transferred the software across and tried to retrieve all definitions from WS01, but i keep getting the above messages.Both systems show as having an active connection to each other but today i can't complete the EOD process, andy help please
 
Is Windows 7 a supported platform for the E7? I've been strictly 3700 since before the E7 was released, but I know that Res4.x won't work on Win7, and Res5 won't work on anything below Win7.
 
E7 Works fine with windows 7 i can communicate with the till just fine and perform updates etc fine on the day, but when i go to retrieve newer/all definitions on the backoffice pc i get the above messages.
 
Please can anyone assist me with the above problem. I am not unable to increment a new business day and also my epos are running slow. i know this is a very unique problem as i have not found this anywhere on the internet.
Please help a will provide any further information you may require
 
When you say you transferred it across, you are talking about the BOC, right?
Do you have the original BOC still? Instead of doing a retrieve all definitions, have you tried just copying the database from one to the other? E7 uses a file based database that can be transferred around without any problems.

When you installed it on the new BOC, did you use the installer, or did you just copy the software? If you used the installer, did you install 2.7, or did you go with the latest installer (MR 3.2)?
 
First thing you should check would be to make sure from the PC that all your workstations are showing as active on the network and status.
The make sure the PC is showing as active on both status and network from all of your workstations.

If any of them are out of sync eg. The PC shows as inactive on some but not others.
Make all workstations and pc inactive from the pc and each individual workstation.
Once everything is showing as inactive. Make everything active again.

Do you want some custom SIM scripts developed. Contact me via my website
