Budget Manager 2014 System Requirements

Prerequisites

Since PROFITstar® Budget Manager is a Web-hosted application; an active connection to the Internet is

required for each machine that will be used to access it.

In addition, the Microsoft® Silverlight™ 4.0 (or later) plugin is required. If it is not installed, the user will be

prompted through a quick installation on first use.

Budget Manager “Admin” Machine Requirements

For Budget Manager administrative users, who will be accessing both the PROFITstar and Budget

Manager applications, the higher of the two sets of client machine requirements will apply.

Note: The PROFITstar® and/or PROFITability® programs must be able to access the Internet from all

“Admin” machines.

Budget Manager Client Machine Requirements

Operating System Windows Vista® SP2 or higher; Windows® 7; or Windows® 8 (desktop mode

only). 32- or 64-bit versions are acceptable for all client operating systems.

Other Required

Software

Microsoft Silverlight 4.0 (or later) plugin

Browser Support * Windows® Internet Explorer® 9.0 or later; Chrome™ 12 or later; Firefox® 3.6

or later

CPU 2 GHz or faster; multiple logical processors will enhance responsiveness

RAM 2 GB or more

Network 100 Mbps network adapter (1000 Mbps recommended)

* Note: When prompted by your browser, choose to allow popups from the online Help site so that Help

topics are available to you each time the Help button is clicked.

In addition, when viewing Help in Windows Internet Explorer 10.0 or later, use Internet Explorer’s

Compatibility View to ensure that the Help content is correctly displayed.



Other Considerations

Firewall Issues: When the Hosted Budget Manger is accessed, either through a browser or from the

PROFITstar client during the Export or Import processes, industry standard ports are used. These ports

are 80 (http:) for text and 443 (https:) for secure connections. To be able to perform the Export or Import

processes from PROFITstar® or PROFITability®, the PS.exe and PA.exe files need to be given access to

port 443 (https:).

Proxy Server Issues: Institutions that utilize a proxy server and integrated authentication may have to

add a rule on their proxy server to allow the PS.exe and PA.exe files to connect to the Budget Manager

URL.

Optimizer 2013 – Standard and Large Server

Prerequisites

Optimizer requires two available servers that are running the Windows Server® 2008 R2 operating system

and are joined to a Microsoft® Active Directory® domain. Other servers may be required to house

complementary applications, such as Relationship Profitability Management™ (RPM) and PROFITstar®.

The Host should contain 2 NICs for standard servers and 4 NICs for large servers. All NICs must be

attached to the network to provide satisfactory performance.

The machine purpose, description, and requirements, for both standard and large server configurations,

are provided on the following pages.
