Creating a New Bizview Application Database
The system database is the only thing that needs to be configured in the application environment before the application is ready to be used.
Assuming you opened the web.config file, either manually or automatically, follow these steps:
- Select the plus icon to add a new database to Web.config.
The new connection dialogue gives you two options: create a new database or add an already existing one to the configuration.
- Choose Create new database and click Select.
- Press Select to continue.
- Choose the network database server you want to upgrade to. Alternatively, type the Hostname or the server IP-address.
- Choose between Windows NT Authentication or SQL Server Authentication (depending on how the database server is configured).
- Enter the username for login.
- Then, enter the password associated with that user.
- Select Next. The database installation continues.

Note: Selecting Connect to existing database allows you to add an already existing Bizview application database to the selected Web.config.
The next dialogue requires you to enter your SQL information, including which user to use for creation of the database (SQL login or Windows account).
