NOTE: The activation record for the Main Back-Office is identified by the word "Main" in the record header. Also, all the modules and interfaces purchased with the license are listed.
If this is the very first activation of this license, you will be allowed to type in the Restaurant Name (commerce name). This name is case sensitive. Otherwise, the restaurant name will be filled in for you and cannot be modified.

IMPORTANT! The computer MUST be restarted at this point. Otherwise, the license will not work properly.
After restarting, the Maitre’D Back-Office Server will attempt to start itself. You may see various progress bars as the Maitre'D database is updated.
If the Maitre’D Back-Office Server is not already authorized, a Windows Security Alert will be triggered from the Windows Firewall:
a. If the Maitre’D Back-Office computer is on a domain, select the Domain networks, such as a workplace network option.
b. If the Maitre’D Back-Office computer is on a network without a domain, select the Private networks, such as my home or work network option.
c. Click the Allow Access button.
The Maitre'D Back-Office Server will start, and an icon will be added to the notification area.
The Maitre'D Back-Office Software is now licensed to run on this PC.
