[We’ll recommend to sync via BKWeb, LAN Networking is not recommended]




You can connect multiple computers/laptops via LAN/Local Network and share one folder so that it is accessible on all devices as: //shared-folder/data/

Now follow these steps:

1. Close Book Keeper in all your devices.

2. Locate your company file. By default company file is saved on Desktop, cut that file and paste into //shared-folder/data/ location.

3. Open Book Keeper and choose 2nd option: Open Company.

4. Browse to //shared-folder/data/ location and select your company file.

 

Kindly note:

a. If you are using same company across various devices, enable User Management, we strongly recommend to use one user at one device. Go to Settings > User Management. Video tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ueg4IsToKe4

b. This Sync Over LAN will work only on PC/Laptops, this method won't sync with Book Keeper Mobile.
