Central Point Data Transfer Setup

 

Central Office Mail - This is the email address to which the reports and data should be sent from each Store. Care has been taken to assure that the data received at this email address is properly filtered. However, it is recommended that a less-used, or dedicated email be established to ensure operation without interruption. There is a possibility that emails resembling the email sent from CentralPoint Remote will be mistaken for data and be rejected.

Because of the nature of how the emails are sent from CentralPoint Remote, it may be necessary to unblock, white-list, or retrieve these email messages. The retrieval system will not check SPAM folders or other folders in order to find and gather data.

Incoming Email (POP3) Server - These settings are technical in nature. There is no set method for detecting what these settings should be. The email provider has these settings. If they are not properly set, no email can be received.

Username - The email account designated to receive CentralPoint HQ email messages should have a username and password. Again, these are not necessarily uniform across email providers. As a result, please obtain this information from the email provider. This should have been set when the email account was established.

Password - The email account designated to receive CentralPoint HQ email messages should have a username and password. Again, these are not necessarily uniform across email providers. As a result, please obtain this information from the email provider. This should have been set when the email account was established.

Confirm Password - This field is compared to the Password field. The two must be identical. Since the actual characters are not echoed on the screen when they are typed, it is required that the same information be entered twice to ensure accuracy.
