====== Database path ======

The database path defines in which folder Pcc should look for the database. Changing this path is possible only after consultation with the system administrator and the Pcc support team. Click on **//Setup/Program Options/Database Location//** for setting the database path.

Each Pcc installation consists of the local data (on the workstation) and public data (on the server). The first three lines show the path to the local data. In this example, the Pcc folder is located directly on the C:\ drive. It contains the sub-folder USER_1, which in turn contains the local program files and databases. There may be several "USER_" folders depending on the installation. The paths are edited using the Explorer icon for each line.

HINT: It is recommended to install Pcc directly on the C drive. Note that each PCC users must have full access to the Pcc folder.

The main data (2), which should be accessible from every workstation, is saved on a central computer (server). This data can also be located directly on the server's C drive. 

HINT: The main data directory contains all the relevant Pcc data, and should be definitely included in the data backup.


===== Manage accounts areas =====

{{:en:einstellungen:programmeinstellungen:kontenbereich_verwalten.png|}}

You can find all the account areas that can be edited from this workstation in the **//Account areas//** field. These settings are individually made for each workstation - you can "check" each account area that should be displayed on the current workstation. This is especially important for archives that are not needed across the network.

In order to use a separate account area you must first create it. **//The name of the account area should not be longer than 8 characters//**.

Press **//Create new account area(F2)//** in order to edit the account areas.

{{:en:einstellungen:programmeinstellungen:neuen_kontenbereich_anlegen.png|}}

In this example we created the new account area **//GASTRO//**. Pcc differentiates between cash accounts (Basic: **//SALES//** or **//PRO SHOP//**) and contribution accounts (Basic: **//CLUB//**).  

HINT: Each newly created account must have a basic definition.
Gastro is a cash account created based on **//PRO SHOP//**. Confirm with **//OK//**. The new account area is now created and automatically entered into the **//Cash account//** fields. 

HINT: Make sure you check the boxes **//Clear all bookings//** and **//Clear completely (also articles)//**,  otherwise the data from the basic account will be taken into consideration.

You can use the field **//Start with this area//** to set the account area in which Pcc starts. You can choose on which workstation you want to work depending on which account area is set; this setting can be individually made for each workstation.

===== Create shortcuts=====

{{:en:einstellungen:programmeinstellungen:verknuepfungen_erzeugen.png|}}

The **//Create shortcut//** button offers you the following options:

  * Create desktop shortcuts 
  * Start PCC with specific call parameters
  * Add Pcc to the start menu
  * Install (or remove) Pcc as system service

These options can also be accessed with the "lnk" macro; the macro must be set under **//Setup/Macros//**.

{{:en:einstellungen:programmeinstellungen:verknuepfung_erstellen.png|}}

Select the desired Pcc program function on the left side, and define which links you want to create on the right site. Press **//Entry//** to create the desired link. The Pcc services are enabled with the appropriate buttons - please contact your system administrator or the Pcc Support team.

HINT: Select **//Cash Register//** on the left side if you have your own cash register workstation; in this case Pcc will automatically link the cash register with the desired account area at start-up.

;-) The most commonly used links are described below.

==== Tee time server ====

The Tee time server is installed using this function. Read more about [[en:online:teetimeserver:teetimeserver|]].

==== Complete backup ====

You have here the possibility to create a complete backup for the Pcc data. The local backup can be started simply by pressing a button, or automatically with the Pcc night automatic. Use the following settings: 

{{:en:einstellungen:programmeinstellungen:komplette_sicherung.png|}}

  - Choose the option "Pcc Full local backup".
  - Check the same boxes as in the screenshot. 
  - Click on **//Install as System service//**.

The following button should now be placed on your desktop: 

{{:en:einstellungen:programmeinstellungen:lokale_datensicherung.png|}}

:!: The settings for the [[en:ende:vollstaendigelokalekopieanlegen:vollstaendigelokalekopieanlegen|Full local copy]] should be made here.

Enter the special parameter **//COPY_LOCAL//** under**//Setup/Program Options/Club Address, Banking details//** in the tab **//General//**, which you can access after pressing the button **//Extra//**.

Double-click on the desktop icon to start the backup. The following dialog opens during the complete data backup.
 
{{:en:einstellungen:programmeinstellungen:kopieren_vorbereiten.png|}}

PC CADDIE performs a full backup the first time you initiate this process. Starting with the second backup, PC CADDIE only updates the data that has changed since the last backup. Thus, the backup process is greatly accelerated. 

:!: In emergency situations (for example, fire, water damage, theft) the Pcc support team can completely restore your data assuming you have created a backup on an external server in a remote location. This backup should be no means replace the routinely backup of your servers.  

:!: The easiest backup of the main data is described here: [[en:ende:schnelledatensicherung:schnelledatensicherung|]].

:!: This does not replace the normal server backup. 


===== Network configuration =====
