Clients

Web Sicon Approvals

Supported browsers:

  • Microsoft Edge
  • Google Chrome
  • 2GB RAM or greater;
    • Why is this? The order page can take up quite a bit of memory client side, Windows uses 1-2GB, so a system with 2GB RAM will already be using most of the RAM, so we recommend having 1Gb spare. Sicon Approvals will work without it as memory is paged to disk, but it would not run as quickly as on machines with more RAM
  • 2Ghz processor or greater
  • JavaScript enabled
  • Popups enabled for Sicon Approvals server address
  • Minimum 1024 x 786 resolution
