QuickCall 4 can be installed on an existing Microsoft SQL Server from SQL 2014. To use an existing SQL server you will need to have full access permissions to the SQL instance, ideally the system administrator (SA) account, this is only used during the installation of QuickCall 4. The installer will create a new catalogue on the database server called QuickCall 4, it will also create a new database user account that only has access to this catalogue to be used by the clients when contacting the server.
