Tip Tuesday: Installing CMI Fixed Assets on a NEW computer
Posted by Kassi Mortensen on Tue, May 17, 2011 @ 08:00 AM
You've waited patiently and finally received a NEW computer! Now, the problem is getting CMI Fixed Assets installed on that new computer!
Did you know that the CMI Fixed Assets update file that you download every time there is an update is a full version of the software? It's the same file that is released to new customers and the same file that needs to be installed on a new computer!
To install the fixed asset software for the first time, simply follow the instructions within your new update email for installing an update.
The only difference between an update install and a new install will be the 'CMI Fixed Assets Registration' screen.
This screen will pop up at the end of the CMI installation wizard. When it does, simply choose "Licensed Purchase from CMI" and enter your company name. (The company name will show up on all your printed reports as the preparer.)
Next, enter your Product Code. If you do not have your Product Code on file, you can call us at CMI Fixed Assets (1-800-678-3658) with your Serial Number and company name to get that information. (To learn how to locate your Serial Number refer to last week's Tip Tuesday.)
Next week we'll discuss moving your data from your old computer to the new computer!
Have a great week!
