System Overview

Point of Success Dashboard is an add-on product for Point of Success point-of-sale software and is made up of two separate components referred to as Client and Uploader. The Point of Success Dashboard Uploader runs locally on a PC computer (Note: Uploader cannot run on a Mac) in the Store where the data is kept. That data is accessed and sent via the Internet to an off-site server and aggregated for reports and analysis. The Point of Success Dashboard Client runs on a PC, a Mac, or an iOS device and connects to the data stored on the Internet server. The client does not necessarily need to run on the computer or network where the data originates in the Store where it is kept on the database server locally. The Client can access Company data from anywhere as long as the computer or device running the client has an Internet connection.

PC System Requirements

Point of Success Dashboard uses the Arsenal Database Server that underlies Point of Success point-of-sale software for managing and protecting data.

The computer running the database must be on at all times when Point of Success Dashboard Client or Uploader are used. The database computer can be up day and night or started before starting Point of Success Dashboard Uploader and Client.
