Prerequisites
The operating system installed on your computer must be Windows. Additionally, see Minimum Requirements to use Blueprint OMS.
If using the native Windows installer, It is not necessary to install Java.
Downloading
You can download the native Windows installer here.
A ZIP (compressed) file will be downloaded, and you will need to unzip the file by right-clicking on it and choosing Extract All...
After the file has been extracted you will see an EXE file – this is the actual installer. Double-click on this file to install Blueprint OMS.
Installation
You will first be asked to install Blueprint OMS only for you all for all users.
Choosing "Install for me only" will default the installation to C:\Users\%username%\Documents\Blueprint OMS
Choosing "Install for all users" will default the installation to C:\Program Files (x86)\Blueprint OMS and requires administrative privileges.
You will then see two parameters: Launch link and Desktop icon name.
The Launch link is required and is the clinic-specific URL provided to you via email. This will allow Blueprint OMS to connect to your unique system.
If you do not have a copy of your clinic's Launch Link, please send a request to support@blueprintsolutions.us.
The Desktop icon name is optional and is only used to give your Blueprint OMS desktop icon a name and can be whatever you'd like.
You can optionally change the installation folder for Blueprint OMS.
After the installation has completed Blueprint OMS will automatically run and can be accessed via the desktop icon in future.
Performing a Silent Installation
To perform a silent installation, run the following command in the Windows command prompt, making sure to substitute the <clinic launch link>
and <installation directory>
values:
& '.\Blueprint-OMS.exe' /verysilent /codebase=<clinic launch link> /name=<shortcut name> /dir=<installation directory> /allusers
The /allusers
switch performs an administrative install, installing the application shortcuts in a public directory for all users.
The /name
switch is optional and will append the inputted text to the name of the Desktop icon.
