Unzip the MissedApps.zip file in a folder like c:\missedapps\ and set the correct server ip address and database code in the Option.xml file (open the file with notepad (!) and change the ip 10.10.0.3 with your server ip (or better use 127.0.0.1 if the task run on the same server of the dataase) and the database name (DREAMPRG_ZZ) with your Database name)
The Option file MUST be in the same folder of the CemMissedApps executable
Finally create a Windows Scheduled task that run the CenMissedApps.exe software each day.
Test it
1.3. Setup and upgrade
– Download the right version and language (for example Malawi centers have to download the _Malawi version)

– FC_XXXX_XX_EN_Malawi.zip for Malawi
– FC_XXXX_XX_FR.zip for French
– FC_XXXX_XX_FR_Camerun_and_Guinea.zip for Camerun and Guinea Conakry
– FC_XXXX_XX_PT.zip for Portuguese
– And so on …
Identify your SYS_PATH_DOC folder in configuration. If not configured is the right time to do it !
- Be sure the SYS_PATH_FOLDER is a network folder (like: \\yourservername\dream_srv \DOC\ ) and NOT a local folder (like: c:\dream_srv\DOC) or your clients cannot access the flowcharts and attachments. Be sure all the user can read and open files are in this shared folder from their PC.
- UNZIP the file FC_XXXX_XX….. in the SYS_PATH_DOC folder ( \\yourservername\dream_srv \DOC\ in the above sample) add or replace the “comuni” and “Flowchart” folders
