Capricorn Configuration Settings

1. Once a base path is determined, via either option a or b below, 2 directories are required; IN and ACK (These paths may already exist).
   1. If a base path for Medical Objects messaging has not been set in most cases C:\MO\Results\ can be used. This folder will need to be shared with read/write permissions on the network (Best Practice requires UNC paths for the import/export locations).
   2. If the Capricorn is already installed you will more likely use the current base path set. This path may already have a network share associated with it and can be confirmed using a command prompt and checking the listing of "net share" .
      
      

2. Click on Ack Management.

   Set the Folder for Acks created by this practices PMS path to the ACK path related to the base path chosen in step 1.

   Suggested:

   C:\MO\Results\AcksAck

   Set the Folder to save external Acks for PMS path to the IN path related to the base path chosen in step 1.
