Activating Bridge Import for Operation

If your company purchased the optional Bridge add-on for importing raw data from a third-party application, running a Basic Bridge import for the first time requires you to activate Bridge using the license file provided by American Innovations (AI). A Bridge license is required only for those operations that use the Basic Bridge function to import data.

Operations using the Bullhorn Bridge function to import data do not require a Bridge license. Likewise, using Bridge to export data from PCS also does not require a Bridge license.

The Bridge license becomes part of the PCS database during the activation process. This allows a single license to apply to all PCS users in your company, including subscribers in a client/server network with replication.

If you are unable to locate your Bridge license file, contact PCS Technical services for assistance at pcstechservices@aiworldwide.com.

To activate Bridge import for operation, follow these steps:

Start PCS if the software is not running.
Click Tools > Job Service Viewer to open the Job Service Console window.
