Allena Registration Issue in Windows 7

SUMMARY

Allena uses a third party ActiveX control from a third party company (eSellerate) to execute a several functions. The control must be registered on the end user’s computer, but some Windows 7 users may be unable to register the control due to an error message.  This article explains about a dependency on a legacy Windows file named MSVCR71.DLL.

MORE INFORMATION

Previous versions of the Microsoft Windows operating system (including Windows XP and Windows Vista) included a file named MSVCR71.DLL.  When our third party ActiveX control (eWebControl365.dll and/or the legacy eSellerateControl365.dll) was originally created, it had a dependency on this file, which was available on every then-current installation of Windows.

New installations of Windows 7 might not include MSVCR71.DLL.  As a result, when attempting to register the ActiveX control, an error message may occur because the required file is missing.  To correct this, place a copy of the MSVCR71.DLL file on the affected Windows 7 computer and try the registration again.

Installing the MSVCR71.DLL file along with your application should prevent future occurrences of the registration issue.

Why Do I Get An “Engine Not Found” Message Box?

training engine not found

The “Engine Not Found” message is usually caused by or related to the permissions with which a user logs onto their computer.

For Windows users, the issue is actually relatively uncommon. For Mac users, it can happen more frequently.
STEP 1: The best first step for troubleshooting is to visit http://www.esellerate.net/update (our third party credit card processing company) and download the engine updater that corresponds to your operating system (e.g. Engine Updater for Windows) and run it. This will often resolve the error message.

However, if the error persists after running the engine updater, then I’d recommend that the user log onto Windows as an administrator account and try the process again. Once the engine has been installed successfully by an admin, that may also resolve the issue for non-admin users.

How To Know When an Employee has Completed Training

We recommend using a training roster. A training roster is a word document used to keep track on employees’ attendance to the training.

Give or send by email the training roster to the trainer and request to have attendees print and sign their names on it.

A training roster has a header with the following paragraph communicating and promoting attendees to ask questions and proof they have attended the training;

I herein state that I’ve attended the training or read the required material noted above (training title). All questions have been properly answered to fully understand the material, procedures, and/or any responsibility related to my job and safety procedures.

Please, fill the following information properly related to the training above.

After the training, request the trainer for the original so you can save this in your files or scan, keep or save in your local server.

Here is an example of a training roster you can download and use in your company; Training roster

How To Create a New Datasource?

Allena training management system allows you to create different databases also known as datasources. You can manage different companies or organizations by linking to different datasources. For example, an organization might have two divisions. Each division has different departments. Separate training tracking per division by creating two different datasources.

Create a new datasource.

  1. Go to the Ribbon
  2. Click on the Home tab
  3. Under File section of the Home ribbon click on New … button
  4. A window shows up asking for the name and location of the new datasource.
  5. Under New Datasource Location enter a folder location for the new file that is NOT under Allena’s installation folder.
  6. Click on Create button and Allena will relink to the new datasource.

IMPORTANT:

All new datasources should be create outside Allena’s installation folder and backed up often.

Before Entering Your Training Management Data

Gather information about employees and training requirements for your organization or facility. There are 2 ways to organize your training tracking records.

Application Navigation To obtain a better idea about required information to build your training management database, navigate through all main forms first (employees, contacts, training schedule, schedule history, etc.) While inside a main form consider fields that define your data in more detail. These fields are located inside a data detail input forms (DDIF). DDIF’s are only accessible through record view forms and can be found by clicking on buttons with double arrows pointing downward.

Data detail input forms are located in these main forms; Employees -> Status, Department Contacts -> Group, Other1 Type, Other2 Type, Other3 Type Training Scheduler -> Training Title, Type, Trainer, Documentation Training -> Required by, Type, Media, Documentation, Location, Trainer Registrations -> Documentation Type Some fields in DDIF are limited to a few characters long and require the use of a code. Consider neglecting vowels when defining your codes in order to fit the fields.

Enter basic training data into Allena in order to be able to generate concurrent trainings. Data entry does not have to be set up at once, but certain information must be entered before trainings can be generated. It is highly recommended that you switch to our sample datasource included with Allena to get familiarize with the data entry and how they relate to each other.

Change the DataSource File

Allena training management system allows you to manage different companies or organizations by linking to different datasource files. For example, an organization might have two divisions. Each division has different departments. Separate training tracking per division by creating two different datasources. To manage training for employees of the division just relink or change to each datasource.

  1. Go to the Ribbon
  2. Click on the Home tab
  3. Under Tools section of the Home ribbon click on ReLink
  4. Practice switching to a different data source by connecting to a provided sample data source called allena_be_sample.accdb
