Hi Fermax
Unfortunately the MSI version has been pedalled as the only version to use to install on a TS - and this is wrong.
I have been installing and using TS to run MYOB since 1996 - yep 1996 !!!
A lot of water under the bridge - but a lot of misinfromation gets out there and one of those seems to be that the ONLY version to install is the .MSI - not so.
The best and only version I believe, for many reasons, to install on a TS is the full SE version - it comes complete with the MYOB version of networking the MYOB file.
You do talk about accessing the API across the network - but you are not using the networking components SE - ?? Note the SE version is not the Server edition as in Windows Server - it just is the version that serves up MYOB myox files across a network (irrespective of the windows network settings) - confusing.
The SE version also comes with all the components which the msi doesn't - yes the MSI is quick to install; but as of version 2021.1 - the only version that should be installed on servers/TS should be the SE version as the non-SE version - has auto-updating - and that cannot happen on a server.
However, to install the API component - just install the full version - it then runs the API install after completing the SE install - once done you can uninstall the SE version without removing the API.

Hi The_Doc ,
We connect via RemoteApp on a Windows 2012 R2 Server (no cloud / online datafile).
Will the Server Edition work under this environment / setup?
Are there going to be any conflict issues installing the Server Edition whilst we already have the MSI version installed and and working?
Is it easy to switch from MSI to Server Edition?
MYOB advise the MSI installer for our environment.
I haven't played with the Server Edition, but If you can uninstall the Server Edition whilst leaving the API component, why can't you install just the API component?
Looking for something else?
