Overview

  • Clubs choosing to host their Office/POS environment locally, will need to install the application(s) on their Club’s local workstations after the application Server is built and configured.  Installing the Office applications on local workstations is the responsibility of the Club’s local IT Technician. These instructions are guidelines to assist your local IT Tech in installing both the Clubessential Management Application (CMA) and the Point of Sale (POS).

  • If you are interested in Clubessential providing this service, please contact support to discuss estimated hours, cost, and to schedule an appointment.

FAQs

Q.  Do I need to do this for all Point of Sale terminals and computers at the club? 

  • A.  Yes, the uninstall/reinstall process needs to be done on every machine that either CMA and/or Point of Sale are currently installed on.

  • Q.  Is internet access required? 

    • A.  Yes, since the new installation and automatic update process are now web-based, all devices/machines will need internet access to properly update. We recommend speeds of at least 50 Mbps to allow for a timely download.
