Merge lane report data together is usually only used in multi-store situations. Instead of having sales reports for each lane, the head office will get a consolidated total store report.

This could be called, for example C:\OutBoxHost\ or any other directory you create for this purpose. The HQ Symphony Pro terminal does not need an entry for host path. Each store that connects must
