Getting Started

• SmartKDS has been designed to use the default SQL logon credentials which are setup for Bepoz SQL server
• However, if a different SQL server username and password has been setup, this needs to be updated within the 'KDS.Server.exe.config' to allow SmartKDS to use the existing SQL server instance
• If the SQL server password doesn't match to the default, the user will be prompted with a failed login message whilst creating a new Database for SmartKDS

• If the failed login message is encountered, please navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Bepoz\SmartKDS to access the KDS.Server.exe.config file, update the password for SA logon and Bepoz logon
• Please ensure that these two passwords are the same
