Workstation hub timeplus installation5/27/2023 ![]() Having the printers already available in Acumatica, the next step is mapping the different users to different printers. In this page, the Update Printer List button is used to populate the grid with the printers previously defined in the DeviceHub.Īgain, notice that that if no results are visible in the grid after pressing in the Update Printer List button, the Cancel button should be used to refresh the grid.Ĭompleting this will update the list of available printers in the DeviceHub. This is accomplished from the Printers page (SM206510). The first thing that should be done is making the printer available in Acumatica. To stop it, the task manager should be used. ![]() Please note that because the DeviceHub is a process that is run continuously in the background inquiring the system whether there is new information to be added to the printer queue, it is convenient to have a specific user created for this purpose.Īfter pressing on OK, the DeviceHub will start running and polling for new documents to be printed.Īlso note that if the DeviceHub window is closed, the process will continue running in the background. The DeviceHub application itself has 2 tabs to be configured: the site and the printers. In the Enable/Disable Features page (CS100000), make sure that the DeviceHub option is selected: We verify that a test document is correctly added to the printer queue: In this case, we will use the Microsoft Printer to PDF (redirected 2) printer Given that all this configuration is being done in a fresh server, we need to make sure that at least one printer is correctly configured and operational. Make sure this checkbox is selected and then carry on with the rest of the installation as it would normally be done. When the Acumatica ERP configuration wizard is run during the installation process, one of the configuration features available is the Install DeviceHub. In this blog post we will review the process needed to make this happen by reviewing the installation, configuration and some good old code examples. Starting from version 2018 R1, Acumatica included the Device Hub feature which is a process constantly running in the background polling for new documents to be printed, so that they can go from Acumatica to the printer queue in one click. In Acumatica, by default, this process requires at least a couple of additional clicks and a few seconds wait time while the preview window is loaded before the document is actually printed. Where systems are deployed in large, busy warehouses, often the preference for users is going directly from the Acumatica screen to the printer in one click. For instance, with respect to traffic, mortgages, IG “influencers”, and… the number of mouse clicks needed to complete an activity in a software system – more is definitely not better. As it turns out, the cliché, “ the more the merrier” is not always the case – nor appropriate for that matter.
