Quickstart
1. Create the site
An operator provisions the customer site. This mints two credentials and shows each once:
- an enrollment token (
cen_…) — short-lived, limited-use, for installing agents - a status token (
cst_…) — read-only, for the customer’s status page and weekly report
2. Enroll workstations
Run the install command on each machine that uses QuickBooks — including the machine that hosts the company file. The installer carries only the enrollment token; the agent exchanges it on first contact for its own per-device credential.
That matters: a leaked installer burns one device, not the whole site, and any single machine can be revoked on its own.
3. Set the update policy
Choose per organisation:
observe— report the build, change nothing.lock— hold the org on a pinned release and alert on drift. Recommended for accounting environments, where a surprise change mid-close is worse than being one build behind.
4. Watch
- Console — every site and endpoint, health at a glance, drill into any machine.
- Status page — a read-only view for the customer.
- Weekly report — a branded digest, emailed.
What you should see in week one
Real environments almost always surface something on the first pass — a workstation stuck at 100 Mbps, a fleet spread across several maintenance builds, or a default printer that will eventually take QuickBooks down. That first report is usually the one that pays for the tool.
