Installing the Program Program
Determine if your machine is a 32 or 64 bit system by searching “System” in your start bar and opening the program. Under system type, it will say either 64 bit system or 32 bit system.
Download the Netcaddy Pro program here for 64 bit system, or here for 32 bit system.
Run the download and click through the prompts until the program is successfully installed.
Open the program. In the top right corner of the window is a wrench and screwdriver icon
. Click this to open the Settings window.
The Netcaddy Pro settings are specific to your club. If you do not have those on file please reach out to our support team and we are happy to provide them to you.
The required settings are as follows: Site ID, Website URL, Username & Password for the website, and the Facility ID. Please note that the Username and Password are the exact same as your login to the website.
Check the box for “Netcaddy Dining" for Dining. (The other "Netcaddy..." checkboxes should only be checked off if you have separate reservation systems.)
Make sure the "Enable IP verification..." setting is NOT checked.
Save, close and reopen the program to ensure it is using the updated settings.
Using Netcaddy Pro
Once the settings have been entered, open the program from the Netcaddy Pro icon on your desktop. In the top right, you will see several icons. The first icon is a filing cabinet.
This will take you to the report view where your reports will be shown. You can change the reservation system and the report using the dropdowns in the top left. In the middle, it will display the date you are viewing and allow you to change the day by either clicking the arrows or the dropdown arrow to view the calendar to select the date. Days that do not have reservations scheduled will be blank.
The
icon will give you access to your admin dashboard.
You will need to hit the Refresh
icon anytime you would like to pull the latest reservation data from the website or before you print the reservations sheet. If you set the program to run on a Windows Scheduled task, Netcaddy Pro can be set to auto-refresh every five minutes.
The fourth Icon is the print Icon
. This can be used to quickly print the report you are viewing.
The last icon is the Preferences icon
