Connecting Linnworks on another PC

Linnworks Local is no longer provided as a solution for new customers from 8th July 2013.

Please refer to the following documentation for Linnworks Anywhere

Part 1 - Downloading the Installer

Firstly, log into you linnworks account on our website. On this page you can view and edit your account details and create a Forum login.

There are also links on this page to download and install Linnworks software. To do this, click on the following link

Once you have successfully downloaded the installer, you will need to run the installer wizard to install Linnworks on your system.

After starting the wizard, you will be prompted to read and accept the end of user licence agreement

Once you have read the License Agreement, toggle the ‘I accept terms in the License agreement’ option and click ‘Next’

Once accepted, click the ‘Install’ option to begin the installation of the Linnworks software. After the installation is completed, Click ‘Finish’

You should now have an icon on your desktop to start the software.

(NOTE: after double clicking the installer Icon, you may need to allow the installer to run if prompted to do so by a ‘User Account’ dialogue box)

 

Part 2 - Using the Installer

Choosing your Version of Linnworks

Once you have double clicked on the ‘Linnworks Order Management’ desktop icon, a window will open prompting you to enter your Email and Password

Once your details have been entered click ‘Next’

(NOTE: These datails are the same details that you use to log into your account online)

Because we are Installing Linnworks on another PC, choose that option on the following page and Click ‘Next’

After you have clicked next a new window will appear, once you click ‘connect’ the system will then start installing the necessary files on your second system.

After Linnworks has installed, you will be presented with this window, click ‘Next’ to continue.

You will not need to enter new details in the ‘Application Settings’ for this installation because this was already done when installing Linnworks Express on your main system.

Part 3 Preliminary Updates

Clicking finish will complete the setup of the Linnworks Software. Linnworks will then check to see if any updates to the software are needed

If there are updates, you can accept these updates by clicking the ‘update Now’ button.

After you have updates the program (if necessary) you will need to log in to Linnworks Desktop like so

After you have logged in, you will be forwarded to the main menu page of the Linnworks system.
