Confirm the installation location and click Next:

Select Installation Folder

Confirm the installation by clicking Next:

Confirm Installation

There are a few fields to complete for the setup.

Firstly, enter the SQL Server hosting the Dynamics GP databases; the manual says to use the SQL Server Instance name, but I found it world only work using the ODBC name.

Enter a user and password for a SQL login with permissions to create tables and stored procedures.

Confirm the Dynamics GP install folder and provide the GP user account with which Post Master will login.

Click Next to proceed:

Post Master Enterprise - Setup

Once the installation is complete, click Close:

Installation Complete

The install should have deployed the dictionary and updated the launch file; I’d recommend checking that this has been done before progressing.
