Resware Website URL
Admin/General Setup/Offices
CloseSimple needs the URL that is used to access the company’s Resware website. Edit the office where this integration will be implemented to note the Resware website URL. If this field is blank, then contact support@resware.qualia.com to request this information.

Install the CloseSimple Listener Application
The CloseSimple desktop app is a Windows systray application that notifies a Resware user of a CloseSimple action. Users will log into the application with their CloseSimple credentials (which will be delivered to them via email). When a user completes an action in Resware that triggers CloseSimple, the application will open and display the related CloseSimple user interface for the order. The application can be installed on individual desktops or in multi-user environments (Citrix, RDP) using a group policy or silent deploy.
- Visit https://www.closesimple.com/appdownloads and use the password simple to download the latest version of the application.

- Select either the 64-bit or 32-bit version as needed.
