Having to reinstall RES on a new computer. Is this the process?
- Install pre-requisites and RES on the computer.
- Restore the DB from old computer to new computer

Are there any other configuration or files that need to be moved from the old computer or does the DB get everything.
How do we move any custom reports we had on the old machine?

Any help is appreciated. Thank you.
 
you have to locate the reports under RES/POS/reports and also ETC folder having the ISL and screen theme , if you need help let me know cherif@workmanpaymentsystems.com
 
Thanks, I have got the new server up and running. Restored DB and the base works fine.

For reports, do you just copy the D:\MICROS\Res\Pos\Reports\Custom to same folder on the new computer?
D:\MICROS\Res\Pos\Etc also has some .ISL files, copy these over to new machine?
Same with D:\MICROS\Res\Pos\Scripts
 
Just a note, the reports worked by copied them over. I was able to run and view the custom reports.
 
You will also need the database and and its security key. Bitmaps and Journals are a good idea as well.
