Once completed, you can click on "Finish" to automatically start the IT Asset Tool Management.

At the first run, you will be asked (if not detected) to install Microsoft SQL Express in order to ensure the correct functioning of all the IT Asset Tool features.

We select Yes if we do not have any SQL Server installed in our Lan network, so we will start the process to perform the automatic installation. Alternatively, if we want to install it manually or if we want to continue with SQL Lite, click on No.

 By clicking on Yes we will be asked to enter the Mail to activate the Subscription (Free or Enterprise) and by clicking on Validate we could activate it.

 

 

Then we can select the password for the Microsoft SQL System Administrator (sa).

 

 

We click on "Install SQL" and wait for the end of the process. This will take a few minutes as installing Microsoft SQL requires numerous steps.

 

At the end of the installation, the first run of the IT Asset Tool will start.

 

At the first start the Microsoft SQL database will be created.

 

We can now choose the IT Asset Tool administrative password.

 

Once the IT Asset Tool Management is started, will be displayed the license screen, read it carefully and then click on accept if it agrees with the policies and terms of use.

The Welcome screen will be displayed and show you the main activities you need to perform to configure the server and clients.

You can perform the "Quick Start" by clicking on the appropriate button on the Welcome screen.

 

At this point, the "C:\Program Files\IT Asset Tool\Client" folder will automatically be shared in read-only mode, containing the files that the Client PCs on your network must execute to be indexed in case you use Client Server mode.
