 == Overview  ==
 ERP can be accessed via WAN allowing system access from anywhere, at any time. Setting up access via Wide<br>
 Area Network (WAN) is a straightforward process but may require assistance from your Network Administrator or <br>IT Professional. The three steps required to enable Remonte Access are as follows

 <br>1 - Static Address<br>In order for a user’s computer (ERP Client) to communicate with the server over the internet, the server must always <br>have the same address, ie. A Dynamic DNS (similar to a website address or a Fixed IP address. You may already <br>have a Fixed IP as part of your internet access contract with your ISP. If not, a Dynamic DNS can be arranged at <br>minimal or no cost through companies such as www.dyndns.org
 - Port Forwarding<br>Your first point of contact when accessing ERP via a (WAN) is the Router. The Router needs an instruction in <br>order to redirect queries from the remote ERP Client software to the correct server in your network. This is called <br>Port Forwarding. ERP will communicate via Ports 3309 and 3310. These ports need to be forwarded to the computer <br>osting the ERP database. This is a task for your Network Administrator.
 - Connection.ini<br>Each ERP Client computer needs to be told the Dynamic DNS or Fixed IP address it is to communicate with. <br>This is done in the Connection.ini file which can be found in the application folder (typically c:\Program Files\ERP\). <br>When opened in a text editor <br>such as Notepad, the Connection.ini file by default will look similar to this:<br>

 Replace localhost in the third and final lines with the Dynamic DNS or Fixed IP address<br>eg.
