+
+SQL Server can be installed as a "Default Instance" or "Named Instance" the standard way Resgrid is configured out of the box is a locally installed Default Instance of SQL Server. If you are installing SQL Server on another server then the Resgrid applications or you are configuring SQL to be a Named Instance you will need to modify the ResgridConfig.json which is located in the Config directory of the Resgrid installation folder. Default location is C:\\Resgrid\\Config\\.

+
+During the installation of SQL Server you will need to set the collation for the SQL server. Resgrid requires "SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS", but this can also be set at the Database level if this SQL Server is shared.
