Setting environment variables for BSL ordering
The Aloha system is sometimes configured with a .bat file that sets specific environment variables prior to launching the Front-of-House. With this method, the Front-of-House (Iberqs.exe or Iber.exe) launches with the ‘Radiant Takeout and Delivery’ service and runs under a service context.
You must set the following system environment variables:
- Iberdir=C:\AlohaQS for Quick Service installations or IberDir=C:\Aloha for Table Service installations.
- IberRoot=AlohaQS for Quick Service installations or IberRoot=Aloha for Table Service installations.
- LocalDir=C:\AlohaQS for Quick Service installations or LocalDir=C:\Aloha for Table Service installations. *
- MasterCapable=False *
- NumTerms=n, where n is the total number of physical terminals.
- Server=n, where n is the computer name.
- ServerCapable=False *
- Term=n, where n is the terminal ID number of the interface server used at the site. *
- TermStr=n, where n is the TermStr on all terminals used at the site.
- NoFatalMsgBox=True
An * indicates variables that are not typically set up for a common Aloha Takeout installation. All other variables may already be in place.
