Licensing

Prinergy Workflow 7.5 and Business Link 7.5 software introduced a new licensing mechanism that merges the (previously separate) Business Link license key with your Prinergy Workflow license. When upgrading to Business Link 8.0, you must also upgrade to Prinergy Workflow 7.5 or later. The Business Link option will be automatically added to your Prinergy license key during the upgrade.

Upgrades to Business Link 8.0 are free of charge for customers who already have a Prinergy Workflow 8.x license or a service contract that includes software upgrades.

Upgrading

If you are running a version of Business Link software earlier than version 3.0, contact your service representative to schedule a remote upgrade.

To upgrade from version 3.0 or later:

  1. Download the update from the Business Link downloads page at https://services.kodak.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/73141 to your Prinergy Primary or Business Link server.
  2. Double-click the executable.
  3. Follow the instructions in the installation wizard.

Business Link 8.0 is compatible with Prinergy Workflow 7.5, 8.0, 8.1, and 8.2.

Business Link 8.0 is compatible with these operating systems:

  • Windows Server 2008 R2
  • Windows Server 2012 R2

New installations of Business Link are always performed by Kodak. The software is usually installed remotely. The installation is accompanied by a start-up assistance service that is designed to help you integrate your MIS with Business Link for the purpose of auto job creation and material tracking.
