Perhaps I am missing something. If so, please let me know.

RMS 1.3.1004

I have HQ client installed on all systems. I have an HQ Client shortcut in
the Startup folder so that HQ client launches at startup. This brings up the
HQ Client window front & center on startup. I would prefer that the HQ
client simply run in the system tray unless the user brings up the HQ Client
window.

Is there a better way? Do I need so suggest to MS that the HQ Client run
strictly in the system tray unless called upon?

I think I *was* missing something and I may have solved my own problem...

All I needed to do was configure the HQ Client in SO Admin to point at the
SO Server IP and skip the HQ Client on the workstations altogether.

Duh.

Hello Tom, the HQ Client window in SO Administrator only enables item
quantity checks across all stores listed in your HQ environment. You still
need to run HQ Client on at least one machine per store for that store to
communicate with your HQ server.

Is there a way that the HQ Client can automatically minimize on startup,
either throguh configuration settings or command-line parameters? Our store
managers are in the habit of closing all of their Windows applications with
File / Exit. That closes and shuts down the HQ Client. I'd rather not present
them with a window at all.
