It's Training Time Again

Yes, it's that time of year again... our schedule is filling up very fast. In fact, June and July are just about full. If you want to schedule training, please book your dates with Ed May, toll free, at 1-877-479-3780 x222.

Lockbox By Special Request

It's back! Many customers have asked us, on request from their auditors, to be able to view older lockbox data. We've decided to put back the old lockbox menu option but it will only allow you to view the data. All new imports need to be loaded and processed through the new Andar Connector.

Free Demo Videos

Did you know that we have a number of streaming videos published on our web site? Learn about new features of Andar or brush up on some of the functions you already use.

See the list... (in the blue box.)

Single Signon or Not?

As some of you may know, you can use Windows Authentication to login to Andar. This means that when you double click the desktop Andar/360 icon, it will not ask you to login (it will automatically use your Windows user id and password to login to Andar ) and it will display the Andar Main Menu immediately.

That's great but what if you want to login with a different user id (such as "Andar")? Simple! Just make a copy of your desktop Andar icon, edit the icon preferences and add "WA=false" (case sensitive) at the end of the target field.

By the way... Andar reads its settings from the "andarparm.txt" file then reads additional setting from the end of the target field. The last value read overrides all previous values. Example: the WA=true is set in the "andarparm.txt" file (probably on your server) but the "WA=false" on the copied desktop icon can override this setting.

Read about single signon.
