Share Workspace between Two Computers

ChequeSystem is a standalone application, and does not have network/multi-user access features.

However, you can set the Data Folder (we called it workspace in ChequeSystem) to a network drive/shared folder, so that ChequeSystem from different computers can connect to this location and access the same data.

You need to install ChequeSystem on both computers. Please ensure you’ve install the same version of ChequeSystem on both computers.

Setup in First Computer
In ChequeSystem of First computer, you can set your workspace in menu “File > Switch Workspace” and create a new workspace in a network drive.

ChequeSystem workspace

We can use a folder in server that both computer can access to. For example, we create a “chequeSystem-data” folder in our server and use \\EVSNAS\chequesystem-data as workspace folder.

Create workspace

Setup in Second Computer
In ChequeSystem of second computer, you also need to create a workspace. You need to first choose “Connect existing workspace” and select the same workspace folder (as in the first computer).

Connect existing workspace

Now, ChequeSystem in two computers point to the same folder in the network drive.

There is one limitation with this approach, different ChequeSystem cannot access at the same time. As the database is locked when ChequeSystem is running, ChequeSystem in another computer can only connect the same workspace in READ-ONLY mode.
