Set up the Profit Application Service

You set up the Profit Application Service if you configure InSite on a server other than the Profit application server.

InSite communicates with Profit via the Profit Application Service. If you are using multiple Profit Application Servers, you can install the Profit Application Service on one of these application servers.

Because this internet traffic is encrypted, you must have an SSL certificate and you must make the Profit Application Service available via HTTPS (port 443). This may also be a different port address.

You use the Profit Application Service to communicate with Profit from the web server(s).

To install the Profit Application Service:

1. Go to: ..\Program files (x86)\Profit\AFAS Windows\Kernel\Profit Site Deployment.
2. Start the Profit Site Deployment tool.
3. Configure the Profit Application Service.

   

4. Click on:Logingegevens.
5. Enter a Gebruikersnaam and the Wachtwoord.

   Remember these details, as you will need them later on in Profit when you link the virtual path.

6. Click on: OK.
7. Click on: Nieuwe Service.
8. Select an existing IIS Site for installing the Profit Application Service; this is usually Default Web Site, but it can also be a different site that has a certificate linked to it:

   

9. Click on: OK.
10. Enter the name of the web application (for example PAS).
11. Enter the details of the COM + user.

    

12. Click on: OK.

    Confirm you want to use the selected web application.

13. Click on Close twice.
