Ny versjon av Ringo Standalone Client 2.5.0


Versjon 2.5.0 av Ringo Standalone Client er nå tilgjengelig. Denne krever at du har en relativt ny versjon av Java installert (versjon 8 eller høyere).

Versjon 2.5.0 av Ringo Standalone Client støtter sending og mottak av EHF 3.0 formater og den krever en oppdatert Java versjon for å støtte moderne HTTPS sertifikater og TLS 1.2+ sikkerhet.

Bruker dere allerede versjon 2.0.0 skal det være enkelt å oppgradere. Er det en stund siden dere installerte Java bør dere vurdere en oppgradering av denne også. Nye versjoner av Java har som regel luket bort kjente sårbarheter og tettet potensielle sikkerhethull.

Installation on Windows

  1. Click here to download Unit4 Access Point standalone client and Save as. Download and click Save as
  2. Extract the downloaded file to somewhere easy to access, like C:\ringo-client.
    Do not use "space" in the folder name. Specify destination and extract file
  3. Create 3 folders named "inbox", "outbox" and "archive" somewhere easy to access.
    C:\inbox
    C:\outbox
    C:\outbox\archive (files that have been sendt will be moved here)
    Do not use "space" in any of the folder names.
  4. Download PEPPOL invoices to your server - (incoming invoices from your suppliers).
    If your username is email@company.com, password is 123456 and the path to your inbox folder is C:\inbox you will execute this command:
    C:\ringo-client\bin\download.bat email@company.com 123456 C:\inbox
    All downloaded EHF invoices will now be saved in C:\inbox and you have to configure your ERP system to import EHF invoices from this folder.
  5. Upload PEPPOL invoices from your server - (outgoing invoices to your customers) If your username is email@company.com, password is 123456, the path to your outbox folder is C:\outbox and the path to your archive folder is C:\outbox\archive you will execute this command:
    C:\ringo-client\bin\upload.bat email@company.com 123456 C:\outbox C:\outbox\archive EHF
    Just use EHF for channel.

    All EHF invoices that were found in your outbox folder, will be moved to the archive folder after they has been uploaded. If an error occurs during the transfer, the EHF invoice will be left in the outbox folder together with an error file describing the problem.


Task Scheduler

If you want to run upload or download automatically every night, you could use Windows Task Scheduler. How to do this varies slightly between Windows versions, take a look here for some hints on configuring Windows Task Scheduler.
