Install and configure WorkZone

Before using WorkZone, you must install, activate, and configure each module your organization wants to utilize. The following section contains the installation procedures for all WorkZone modules.

Cross Origin Resource Sharing (CORS)

If WorkZone services are to be requested from web clients executed by a web browser and loaded from other domains (for example WorkZone Client and WorkZone Configurator being hosted on a different host than Process service), you must configure the Cross-Origin Resource Sharing parameters AllowedCorsOrigins and AllowedCorsHeaders for WorkZone PDF Engine, WorkZone Process and WorkZone OData.

General installation procedure

Install each WorkZone module to be used by your organization. All module features and functionality will be installed automatically when the module is installed.
WorkZone Content Server must be installed first on the server or servers intended to run WorkZone. The installation of WorkZone Content Server also includes steps where you can install the Oracle database that will contain WorkZone data for your organization.

The following WorkZone Content Server modules are included in the installation WorkZone Configurator, WorkZone Configuration Management, WorkZone Explorer and CVR Integration/CPR Integration.

Once the WorkZone Content Server has been installed, you can install the WorkZone modules your organization wants to utilize, for example WorkZone PDF or WorkZone Process.
After the WorkZone modules are installed, you must activate and configure each specific module as you need it. Modules that have not been activated or configured correctly will not function or be available to your users.

You or any other system administrator can activate WorkZone modules and features in WorkZone Configurator > Global > Feature settings and can configure WorkZone modules and features in WorkZone Configurator and WorkZone Configuration Management.

Tip: Install all WorkZone modules and features (for example WorkZone Client, WorkZone PDF, WorkZone Process) to ensure all modules are present and installed if they are needed at a later time.
You can install, activate and configure any skipped WorkZone modules if your organization decides to utilize features from these modules at a later time. You can also deactivate any modules your organization no longer intends to utilize. Deactivating modules will not delete or remove existing data, but data will not be added or updated after they have been deactivated.
