    network license

    I intend to install proseries on more than one computer, although I will be the sole preparer.

    I have done this in past years.  I do not  think I have ever had to get a network license.

    Is this new ?  I do not have a network.

    I have the program on multiple computer's , Im the only person that uses each computer, no network license.  Just install as Stand Alone on each one.   

    Id recommend only Efiling from one computer though, updating acknowledgements on multiple computers can get confusing.

    Silly question but how do you open files that are  saved from the computers? or Are you storage files on network or server?

     

    Thank you

    If Im at home, I pluck a client file from the cloud where my back-up is (I use Carbonite) and work on it, then I copy it off to a flash drive to bring it back to the office, I dont have a cloud back-up running at home.

    Some people use One Drive to be able to access files on multiple computers..

    Thanks Lisa - I wanted to test on old computer before I setup with new (permanant) computer.
