Hi all,
I'm a computer technician at a community college that uses Sage 50 2017 presently in the classroom. I'm new and the previous technician kept no notes on the specifics of how Sage 50 should be installed which could be my issue. I needed to reinstall Sage 50 on a couple of computers so I installed it locally since the network technician doesn't recall ever having it installed on a network before and it appears all other computers have Sage 50 installed locally.
I talked with the teacher and she informed me of an issue she noticed on all our machines. Presently students save their company database to there roaming profile or a flashdrive and they then import the database at the start of class to use Sage 50. However when they do that, Sage 50 creates a local copy of the database on the C drive (C:\Sage\Peachtree\Company). This allows other students to come in and open previous students companies, making it easy to copy other's work. This is obviously and issue.
My question is how do I set up Sage 50 to not save a local copy of databases?
Alternatively, I would love to hear how other schools have Sage 50 set up in their classrooms or other alternative to how I can work around this issue.
