Verifying CAPS Installation

The following steps are optional:

  1. If CAPS is configured on a Microsoft SQL Server database, expand the CAPS database tree and verify the tables listed.
  2. If CAPS is configured on an Oracle database, log in as the CAPS user to verify the tables.
  3. Verify the log files on the CAPS EGateway log and the workstation EGateway log folders.
  4. Configure a new POS client workstation that points to CAPS from the Property Parameters module (Workstations tab).

    See Adding a Workstation for more information.

  5. Click the Show Database Provider button, and then verify that one of the following appears, depending on the CAPS database installation type:
    • CAPS DB: as Oracle

    • CAPS DB: as SQL Server

  6. Verify that the CAPS status is online.
  7. Add a few test transactions from the workstation.
  8. Verify that the transaction details post to the CHECKS table on the workstation datastore database, the CAPS database, and the Simphony transaction database.
