    AcctVantage ERP 2020 - System Requirements

    Below are bare minimum system requirements for both AcctVantage Client and Server hardware. Better than minimum hardware will improve performance.

    AcctVantage Technical Support does not support hardware, network, or other IT setup outside of actually installing and configuring the AcctVantage software. However, we will be happy to work with your IT staff or consultants to discuss our experiences with various hardware/network situations.

    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Notes on Operating Systems:  

    • AcctVantage releases are certified to work with specific versions of Macintosh and Windows Operating Systems.  
      • For Macintosh, certifications are done at the 10.x level, meaning that an AcctVantage version certified for 10.5 or earlier will not operate on a server or client running Mac OS 10.4.  
      • For Windows, the certification is done by major release version such as Windows XP or Windows 7.
    • We suggest turning OFF all Automatic Update programs that may update an Operating System version. The OS certification applies to both Server and Client machines.
    • Bookmark this article for the latest supported OS versions and the corresponding AcctVantage release.
    • AcctVantage operates on a Local Area Network (LAN) using TCP/IP protocols. If all users are on the same LAN, then dynamic IP address assignment is acceptable. It is recommended that all LAN connections be routed through switches rather than hubs and that “daisy-chaining” of switches and/or hubs be avoided.

    Void a Purchase Event

    If you have received some Inventory items in error on a Purchase Order, then you may wish to reverse the effects on the General Ledger. This article will cover what steps need to be taken so that the effects of receiving against a Purchase Order are reversed.

    There are 2 conditions that must be met for this to work:

    1. The original Purchase Order must not have been posted (NP).
    2. A Purchase Event must have been created. In other words, the original Purchase Order must be in Received (REC) status.

    AcctVantage ERP Single User

    There are times when it is necessary to run a utility or do a process in "single user mode" in AcctVantage.  Single user simply refers to AcctVantage running in a stand-alone environment rather than using the AV Server application and a desktop/mobile client.

    The Single User application may also be copied to a laptop or desktop computer, along with a copy of your company data file.  This would allow you to work on new processes, train new staff or take a snapshot of the data with you on the road.

    Note: There is not a 'merge' function, any data entry done in the copy of the data file will not be present in the 'live' system.
