Server Based System - please perform the following configuration:
Within Network
Your provider will advise of the folder on the same network they will be placing csv files for upload into SmartAdvocate. You will need to provide SmartAdvocate with this folder. Also, SmartAdvocate can create a folder on the SmartAdvocate server and submit to your provider the monitored folder location to submit and retrieve csv files. Kindly advise the route being performed.
Outside of Network
Kindly have your IT Professional create an FTP/SFTP site. Here are some instructions we found on the internet: https://www.windowscentral.com/how-set-and-manage-ftp-server-windows-10
