3. Configuring the xTuple Connect Batch Manager Client

Now that the xTuple Connect Batch Manager is connected to your xTuple ERP database, you can configure the xTuple Connect Batch Manager client options. To configure the client options, follow these steps:

Follow this path: Tools > Options

Specify an SMTP port (default = 25)
Select the "Requires Authentication" option if required by SMTP host
Enter user name and password information, as shown below:

Client Configuration Options

Warning

The email server you use must not require any encryption to authenticate the user. If this is required, set up a local email server that the xTuple Connect Batch Manager can connect to and configure the local email server to use encryption when communicating with the mail email server.

Note

The three "Pause Times" options are not saved. The default values are strongly recommended. These can be set on the command line to fine tune how often the xTuple Connect Batch Manager checks for new jobs. See Section 7, “Runtime Options” for details.

To save your configuration settings, select the OK button. Then leave the xTuple Connect Batch Manager running.
