- In the “Add-On Administration” screen, within the “Company-Assigned Add-Ons” matrix, it’s loaded with the selected Add-On.
- In here, you select the “Default Group”. We can choose the add-on to be :
- “Manual”. So every time we log in to SAP Business One, we need to run the add-on manually.
- “Automatic”. So every time we log in to SAP Business One, the add-on will automatically run.
- “Mandatory”. So every time we log in to SAP Business One, the add-on will automatically run. The difference with “Automatic” is that the add-on must be running when we want to use SAP Business One and we cannot turn off the add-on manually.
- Click the OK button.
