Connect Lasernet Server and Lasernet Connector

This section will guide you through how to connect the Lasernet server with the Lasernet Connector for Dynamics 365 Business Central. By this time you should have installed the Lasernet Connector within Business Central and the Lasernet server. You should also have entered the information within Lasernet Setup in Business Central. This information is needed here also.

1. Log in to the server where Lasernet is installed and open Lasernet Developer. Log in with your user credentials.

2. Choose Import configuration.

3. Choose the Lasernet configuration that you received in the software package and click Open.

4. Select Servers from the Tools menu.

5. Double-click the default server, and from the Instance drop-down list, select the instance that matches your server.

6. If you are using File System to communicate, skip this and go to step 12. Select the JobInfos tab and correct the two JobInfos so they match the Azure Storage settings that you entered within Business Central and Lasernet Setup.

7. When done, click Ok to close the form.

8. Select Modules from the Tools menu, and double-click the Azure Service Bus input port.
