Re: ADP PC/Payroll database

:-).

They don't support it because it doesn't fit the installation script they've
written. I'd love to run it on MS SQL (or even MSDE) instead (I believe
that's supported on SBS ;-)). But that's even further from ADP's supported
configuration.

The data is currently on a workstation - and that's no place for a
multi-user database ;-). I could put it on a w2k3 TS box, but that's no
place for it either.

I've had success with numerous SQL flavours on SBS, this is just another one
of them - albeit one I've not tackled before.

Are there any amongst us who use ADP PC/Payroll, and have the data on
their SBS server?

The database is SQLBase 7.5.1, and ADP supports the installation on
W2k3 server, but not on a DC. The ADP installer bombs, because of
permissions issues.

I'm fairly sure this can be quite easily worked around, but will have
to be done outside the scripted installation so appropriate
security/permissions can be set for the SQLBase app. Unfortunately,
ADP isn't much help.
Perhaps someone else has already determined the steps to get it
running?

If ADP won't support this, don't do it, plain and simple. Isn't your
payroll important enough that it should be reliable - and shouldn't you be
able to get ADP to help you out if it isn't working properly?
