Install and Sync

Install the ChequeSystem and the cloud storage application (e.g., Dropbox) on both computers. Make sure you have the same version of ChequeSystem on both machines and that the cloud storage application is set up to sync your designated local folder to the cloud.

Setup First Computer

On your first computer (Computer A), create a new, empty folder within your synced cloud storage folder (e.g., C:\Dropbox\ChequeSystem). Then, start ChequeSystem and go to the menu “File > Switch Workspace“.

In the popup list, click the [+] button to create a new workspace, selecting this new folder as the workspace location.

After setting up the workspace, close ChequeSystem on Computer A.

Setup Second Computer

On your second computer (Computer B), wait until the new ChequeSystem folder has fully synced from the cloud to the local drive (e.g., D:\Dropbox\ChequeSystem).

Once the folder is synced, open ChequeSystem on Computer B. Go to the menu “File > Switch Workspace“.

In the popup list, click the [+] button to create a new workspace. Choose “Connect existing workspace” and select the local folder location of your synced cloud storage (e.g., D:\Dropbox\ChequeSystem).

Now, both computers are connected to the same set of data, and the data will be synced via your cloud storage application, as long as you only run ChequeSystem on one computer at a time.

ChequeSystem offers the ability to create a comprehensive backup of all your data. This backup includes all cheque books, cheques, reports, payee lists, and all the software settings in the current workspace.

To backup, click on the [Browse] button and specify a filename for the backup file. The backup will be created in a zip format, ensuring that all the necessary data is securely stored and compressed for efficient storage.

Backup can also be saved to Google Drive.
