Loadmaster / Loadmaster update 43.1.81.0 - 08/03/2017
« on: March 08, 2017, 05:10:02 pm »
Big update on the emailing customers side.

You can now bulk email the customers with or without a file attached (txt, doc, docx or pdf i.e. 'safe' files) by either SMTP or Outlook and with or without data logging the emails.

Issues are marked as *PROBLEM* in the email log.

Sameday Express / Sameday Express now on version 2.59 - 06/03/2017
« on: March 06, 2017, 04:36:13 pm »
Updated emailing to work under SMTP, Outlook and MAPI.

This alleviates an issue where Microsoft Office has an issue with SMTP and no longer sends emails.

The program is capable of multi-company use from v.2.58

Loadmaster / Loadmaster - cannot log on. Screen closes.
« on: March 06, 2017, 09:54:13 am »
It means your username and password are invalid.

If you are sure that you got these right then the chances are that you are working on a network with the data on a remote drive and it is no longer accessible. It may come up and ask if you want to use the local drive instead and you have OKed this.

Log on as MANAGER with a password of BORG. Are you in the table? If not then CREATE/NEW a new one. Now log in as this user. Check the data directory on the bottom line. If this is wrong then go to UTILITIES and DATA DIRECTORY then browse for the correct one. Save.

You should now be on the system again.

It means you haven't logged on! It doesn't recognise your username and password.

Operational Status / All OK - 02/03/2017
« on: March 02, 2017, 09:58:54 am »
All systems operational.

Please note that if you want to post to this board then you must be an existing customer. Just let us know by email.

The reason for this is that the board was getting over 1000 applications per day (mainly from Russia) and it was clear that the intention of these people was for simple misuse.

Loadmaster / Differences between Loadmaster Enterprise and Extreme
« on: March 02, 2017, 09:42:10 am »
There are two different folders on the web site of Loadmaster Enterprise and Loadmaster Extreme.

Loadmaster Enterprise contains the normal setup of Loadmaster.

Loadmaster Extreme contains the AUTOLOADER version.

What's the difference? The AUTOLOADER version is not updated as often. It is updated only when major changes occur. This is to stop the end user being bombarded with update notifications.

The AUTOLOADER version of the program on your desktop will automatically update when it detects a new version.

To work with the AUTOLOADER version simply install from the Loadmaster Extreme directory.

To stop working with the AUTOLOADER version simply locate the file WDUPDATE.NET which will either be in the program directory or C:\Program Data\ZiPZAP Computers\Loadmaster and delete it.

TPN Invoicing / TPN SOAP WEB 2.92
« on: February 28, 2017, 09:58:11 am »
There is a second installer for TPN SOAP WEB in a folder called ReducedRightsVersion which has a lower Windows 'rights' requirement and which may help if you are having security lockdown issues.

Please note that if you have already installed TPN SOAP before then you will have to remove the folder TPNSOAP which is found in the hidden folder C:\ProgramData\ZiPZAP Computers Limited\ before you install otherwise you will get a security error when the program is run. Again, this is down to Windows security restrictions.

Please note the installation password has changed. Email a request for the new one.

Loadmaster / Loadmaster updates - 43.1.79.0 - 27/02/2017
« on: February 28, 2017, 09:50:00 am »
Following a large amount of updating this version is released today.

Extensive work has been down on POD images with a massive increase in image quality. PODs can be emailed directly to the customer, either singly or all of those for an invoice. PODs can be imported from a directory and matched on Job Number, TPN Number or visibly.

A whole section for Pickups has been introduced complete with a real-time display option.

Emailing has been updated to allow use by SMTP (standard method), Outlook or MAPI.

Windows / Security Recommendations
« on: February 11, 2017, 09:49:35 am »
Recommended security software Feb 2017 -

Kaspersky Internet Security 2017
Malwarebytes Corporate Edition
Belarc Advisor (free edition OK) - to advise you of anything that you are missing

In a commercial environment you should be running Windows 10 Professional as this contains many security features that will prevent 'day one' attacks. Old versions, including 7, are open to attack.

Upgrade old versions of Microsoft Office to the latest version.

Adopt a proper and regular backup procedure. Many of our programs offer you the ability to backup data to our cloud server at the press of a button.

Sameday Express / Sameday Express - multi company
« on: January 09, 2017, 01:45:09 pm »
This is now quite easy. Just set up one company with the Sameday program as normal. Create a new data directory for the other.

If the new data is in G:\Sameday1\ then create a batch file containing this -

CD\
CD Progra~2
CD SAME DAY EXPRESS
"Same Day Express.exe" G:\Sameday1\
CD\
EXIT

Replace CD Progra~2 with CD Progra~1 if your operating system is 32 bit.

Save this under anyname.bat then create a shortcut to it on your Desktop. Replace the icon in the shortcut properties.
