Installation
1. Install
Toolbox should be installed on all machines where Microsoft Dynamics GP code is installed. If it is not installed, actions performed by users will not be captured by the tools. We also recommend all users are logged out of GP while doing the installs.

2. Time
The first install will take the most time as this is when tables, stored procedures, etc. are built. Typically, the install takes 5-10 minutes. The remaining workstations will take less time as it is installing the code only.
3. Reg Keys
After the install is complete, be sure to enter the registration keys that were provided to you by the sales team. Ensure that they are valid after being entered. If not, contact sales@rocktonsoftware.com to assist you.
Set Up
1. Security
Assign the Toolbox Admin security roles to the necessary users. They will be able to access the System Settings window to enable or disable tools and be able to set them up. For other users, there is no additional role needed. Necessary security is added to the DEFAULTUSER task.
2. System Settings
The System Settings window is used to enable the tools you wish to use. Enable and set up the tools you are going to use. Below is a list of the tools and the estimated time to configure each tool.
Complete
1. Test
After you have enabled your tools, we recommend you test them to make sure you get the results you are expecting.
2. Train
Train your users based on the tools enabled. For example, if Payment Approvals have been enabled, let them know how payments will work going forward.
Maintenance
