Updating Setu

What you’ll do here: know when a new version of Setu is ready, and how it gets installed.

“A new version is ready”

When Matih releases a new version of Setu, the owner sees a line in the status band at the bottom of the main window:

“A new version is ready: <version>. Your Matih support person installs it.”

Beside it is a See what is new link, with what the new version brings.

  • Only the owner sees this line. Cashiers and managers don’t.
  • Setu checks for a new version at most once a day, when the computer is on the internet.
  • Setu downloads nothing and installs nothing by itself. The line only tells you.

How the update is installed

Your Matih support person or distributor installs the update for you, at a time that suits the shop, usually when the counter is quiet.

They run the new version’s Setup on the shop computer, over the version you have. Your bills, items, stock, accounts, users and settings stay as they are. Setu takes a backup before the update.

Before they start:

  1. Finish and save any open bill.
  2. Close the day if it’s the end of the day.

After the update, sign in as usual. If anything looks different, read See what is new, or ask the person who installed it.

Checking which version you have

Choose Exit › About Matih Setu. It shows the version of Setu on this computer.

Don’t

  • Don’t download Setu from anywhere except the link Matih or your distributor gives you.
  • Don’t uninstall Setu to update it. Setup installs the new version over the old one.
  • Check the installer’s fingerprint before running it. See Installing.
