This document was created to provide instruction for the WebView module for online web production tracking for Control.

Cyrious WebView is a web interface that allows the customers of a Cyrious Control user to interact with their information in Control, all in real-time. The following information can be viewed from within WebView:

• The status (and station) of current orders.
• Historic orders, including the line item details.
• On-line Statements
• Payment History for the past
• Pending Estimates
• Their company profile (address, phone, etc.)

In addition to viewing real-time information, the customer can interact with the system to:

• Request a Quotation
• Approve, Reject, or Request Changes in an Estimate.
• Reorder a past order.
• Request someone contact them.
• Change their company information.

Changes or requests made by the customer are NOT automatically propagated into the system. For security and approval reasons, all changes requests are sent via email to the store email address. Processing, approval, and entry of the information is left to the email recipient.

WebView will require a web server to operate. This may be the same computer as the SSLIP server, or another computer that has read/write access to the SSLIP server. Understanding how WebView interacts with Control will help your IT professional plan your WebView deployment. WebView is deployed on Microsoft IIS. The server running WebView will be referred to as the Web Server. WebView communicates with the Control SSLIP by exchanging messages. The messages are written into files, which are read by the other program. Because of this requirement, the two programs (WebView and the SSLIP) must be able to access a common shared folder.

WebView uses a configuration file (webview.inc) to tell it the path to the SSLIP server. WebView retrieves information from the Microsoft SQL Server or MSDE database. WebView must be able to communicate with the database server (which is usually the same computer running the SSLIP). When WebView is started, it obtains the database connection information from the SSLIP. In order to display high-resolution artwork for proof approvals; WebView requires access to the computer and network containing the artwork files.

This feature is not yet available, but should be planned for in any WebView deployment.

For the above reasons, it is strongly recommended that the Web Server run on the same network as the SSLIP Server.

In order to deploy WebView the following configuration is required:

1. The web server needs to be able to access the Control Server. The default path, which may be changed, is \\servername\Cyrious$\SSLIP\WebView, where servername is the name of the Control Server.
2. The Web Server must have permission to find, open, read, create, and delete a file inside that folder.
3. If the default location and share is not used, then a configuration file (webview.inc) must include “SSLIPFolder=xxxxx” to identify the path to the shared folder on the SSLIP server, where xxxx is of the format \\servername\sharename\path.
4. You must add the WebView application as a website under IIS.

You should install the WebView application under the root IIS folder.

1. This folder is usually located at C:\Inetpub\wwwroot. To verify this or locate the folder if not found, navigate to Start | Settings | Control Panel | Administrative Tools | Internet Services Manager
2. Right click the website that Control Web will be installed under
3. Select Properties
4. Click on the Home Directory tab and the address is located in the Local Path field

Microsoft SQL Server or MSDE must be installed on the Cyrious Server. This is a normal part of the Cyrious Control Installation.

The following services must be enabled and started on the Web Server:

• IIS Admin Service
• Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP)
• World Wide Web Publishing Service

You can check by going to Start | Settings | Control Panel | Administrative Tools | Services, and make sure these services are Showing, Started, and are set to Automatic.

For the WebView website, verify that “Index.asp” is set as the Default Document type for the Web Site. To accomplish this:

1. Navigate to Start | Settings | Control Panel | Administrative Tools | Internet Services Manager
2. Right click the name of the website and select Properties
3. Click on the Documents tab and make sure Enable Default Document is checked and that Index.asp is in the list

If Index.asp is not in the list of Default Documents, click the Add button and type in Index.asp as the Document Name. Click OK and then click OK to close the window and save.

• Make sure you are logged in to the Web Server as a user that has administrative powers.
• Install all files to a folder called WebView under where your website is currently stored on the Web Server. (This would normally be C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\WebView.)
• Have your web designer create a link in your company website that links to http://www.myweb.com/WebView/Index.asp, where myweb.com is your URL. This will allow your customers to login from your current website.
• Update the webview.inc configuration file located in the WebView folder. Edit the line “SSLIPFolder=xxxxx” to identify the path to the shared folder on the SSLIP server, where xxxx is of the format \\servername\sharename\path.
• Make sure that everyone has permissions to write and modify on that folder.

Make sure in Antivirus Setup that Script Blocking has been disabled or WebView will not work.

• In IIS, make sure the IP for the website is set to (All or Unassigned) unless already set to something else.
• In the SSLIP, set the file path to the shared folder and set which database is being used.
• Open the SSLIP and go to the Tools menu.
• Select WebView Setup and click the Edit button.
• In the WebView Directory, identify the path to the shared folder on the SSLIP server, making sure it is of the format \\servername\sharename\path. * For the WebView Database, set it to the group the Store Data is located, usually called Store Data Group. * For the WebView Store, select the Store Database being used, which will be your company name. * Click the Save button, shut down the SSLIP, and restart it. * In the SQL Server, create a user called WebView with a password of monkeypals. In the Store Database, give that user permission for Select for all tables and Update permission on the AccountContactUserField table. In Control, create a web login for each customer contact that is to access WebView. To do this: * Open Control and select the Company Explorer * Find and open the company for the contact you wish to allow access * Click on the Contacts tab * Select the name of the Contact you wish to allow access * Click on that contact's WebView tab If Control does not allow you to create an account, you have exceeded the number of web licenses Control is currently authorized for. * Enter in the desired username and password * Click the Save button * Test the login to make sure it works
