Clubessential is committed to ongoing product improvement, and we are making significant updates to the Clubessential Club Management Application (CMA) and Classic Point of Sale that require a one-time uninstall and reinstall. Changes are being made to the installation process that improve security and ensure that the automatic updates of the application continue as expected. Additionally, the CMA and Classic Point of Sale applications are being upgraded from 32-bit applications to 64-bit applications, which allows them to leverage more memory and should improve performance overall. This update does not impact Mobile Point of Sale, and no action is required for devices running MPOS.
Required Permissions
Uninstall/Install rights to the PC that you are performing the uninstall/install on.
What will happen if I do not take any action?
If the uninstall/reinstall is not completed, you will no longer receive automatic updates with new features, fixes, and other changes, and could potentially result in issues when using the application in the future. Additionally, starting on Wednesday, October 25th, you will begin to receive an update pop-up prompt each time you login to the application that will continue until the update has been completed.
