Warnings

Version warning

When you upgrade TMW Back Office, you must also upgrade TMW Operations and TMWSuite to the same version.

Engage.Bid, Token Vault warning

Engage.Bid is an online subscription product. It lets trucking companies process bids from shippers. The feature uses a Token Vault to store login information securely.

Starting in 2022.2, Engage.Bid began using a new Token Vault in the Trimble Transportation Cloud (TTC). The change made old values invalid. They have been deleted.

If you were using Engage.Bid in versions prior to 2022.2, you must enter new values to continue using it.

Requirements

Before you begin installing TMW Back Office version 2023.6, check that you meet these requirements:

  • TMWSuite®

  • TMW Operations
    If you are using TMW Operations, your version of TMW Back Office must be the same as your version of TMW Operations.

  • Microsoft® .NET Framework
    .NET Framework 4.6.2 or later (full package, not client)
    The framework must be installed on the TMW Back Office server, client, and administrator systems before you install TMW Back Office. If it is not present, the system displays an advisory message during the installation. Install the framework before running the application.

  • Internet Information Services (IIS) for Microsoft® Windows Server®
    IIS Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 or later

  • Microsoft® SQL Server®
    Microsoft SQL Server 2014 or later

    Note: SQL Server 2014, SQL Server 2016, SQL Server 2017, SQL Server 2019, and SQL Server 2022 are certified for use with this application. Trimble Transportation recommends using the latest service pack of whichever version you use.

  • You must be logged into the system where you want to install TMW Back Office, and have administrator rights for that system.
    Like most applications, TMW Back Office can be installed locally on a user’s system. It is also possible to install TMW Back Office on a network drive. To do so, you must be logged into the system where the drive is physically located, and have administrator rights for that system.

  • SQL Server System Administrator rights are necessary
    The installation of TMW Back Office includes the manual application of a SQL script to the TMWSuite database. You must have a SQL Server administrator login and password to apply it.
