Plan the best location for your company file

Premier Accounting:

To help decide which workstation will be used to store your company file, answer some questions about how your company plans to use Premier Accounting:

• Which workstation on your network is the most powerful? Like most computer programs, Premier Accounting can be used most efficiently on workstations that have the most free hard disk space and random access memory (RAM). You may want to consider placing the upgraded company file on your company's most powerful computer.

• Which workstation will use Premier Accounting the most? If one employee at your company will use Premier Accounting more than anyone else, consider placing the upgraded company file on that employee's workstation. This will help speed that employee's accounting tasks.

• What are the job functions of each person who will use Premier Accounting? For example, a clerk who enters and changes information in Premier Accounting throughout the day will require more computer "horsepower" than a manager who views the company's financial data only occasionally. Placing the company file on the clerk's workstation and ensuring that workstation is more powerful than the manager's will increase the efficiency of your company's Premier Accounting activities.
