Installing Mamut Point of Sale

The installation of Mamut Point of Sale is handled through a wizard. You need to accept the user agreement and choose where you want to install the program. A shortcut to the program will be created in the Window Start menu.

Note! Mamut Point of Sale must be installed by a distributor.

The program uses a SQL database. If you do not already have SQL Server 2005 or 2008 R2 version installed, the installation wizard will install a free version of Microsoft® SQL Server® Express 2005. You will need to be connected to the Internet in order for the download to be successful.

Note! If Mamut Point of Sale is not installed on the same computer as the SQL Server used by your Mamut Business Software installation - and the computer is included in a work group - you must activate the Guest Account on the computer running the Mamut Business Software installation and add it to the SQL Server as an administrator.

Please note that the download may take some time.

First-time startup

The first-time you startup the program, a wizard will help you to define the most important settings that the system requires in order to work correctly.

This wizard opens every time you startup the program until you have completed the entire wizard. This means that if you click Cancel at any point throughout the wizard, it will start up again the next time you startup the program.
