Billing Client Privacy.
Last updated: October 19, 2026
The Business Manager Billing Client is a small Windows program that prints bills sent to it by Business Manager. It runs on the same computer as the browser you use Business Manager in. This notice covers that app only — for the website and Business Manager itself, see our main Privacy Policy.
It is optional. Business Manager still prints through your browser's own print dialog if you do not install the client, and every shop chooses which method it uses.
1. What the app stores on your computer
Everything it keeps is a preference, stored in your own Windows user profile, under %APPDATA%\SolutionerTools\BillingClient:
- Which printer you assigned to each paper size.
- The local port it listens on, the Business Manager web addresses it may be contacted from, and a random pairing token.
- A short technical log of print requests and their results. The log records printer names, job identifiers and error messages. It never records the contents of a bill.
You can delete that folder at any time; the app will create a fresh one, with a new pairing token, the next time it starts.
2. What it never stores
- No bills, invoices, customer names, addresses or phone numbers.
- No prices, stock, tax details, reports or subscription information.
- No passwords and no account details.
A document that arrives to be printed is rendered in a temporary folder and that folder is deleted as soon as the job finishes. If the program is closed forcibly while printing, anything left behind is deleted the next time it starts, before it accepts a new job.
Your business records stay in Business Manager, in your browser. The client holds none of them and cannot show them.
3. What it sends
Nothing. The app has no outbound internet feature and no server address to contact. It listens only on 127.0.0.1 — the local machine — so the browser on the same computer can reach it, and does all of its work locally.
It receives a document from Business Manager and replies with whether the job was accepted. The pairing token proves a request came from your Business Manager rather than another website that happens to be open; clearing the token stops printing from the browser until you pair it again.
If you install the app from the Microsoft Store, Microsoft processes the download, installation and updates as the store provider, under its own privacy statement. That is separate from anything the app itself does, which is why the app needs no internet access of its own.
4. What it asks Windows for
- The list of printers already installed on the computer, and permission to print to the printer you assigned. It bundles no printer drivers and installs none.
- It starts Microsoft Edge — already present on Windows — in a hidden, offline mode purely to convert a document into a PDF for printing. It uses a throwaway profile that is closed once the page is generated.
It does not read your documents, camera, microphone, location, contacts or files.
5. Access and authority
The client can only be reached from the computer it runs on. It is not a server on your network and cannot be reached from another PC or from the internet. It prints only what Business Manager sends it, only to the printers you assigned, and it never changes, cancels or re-sends a bill: the bill is saved in Business Manager first, so a printing problem can never alter a bill or charge anyone twice.
6. Installing, updating and removing it
If you installed it from the Microsoft Store, Microsoft handles updates and removal. If you installed it as a standalone program, you can update it by replacing the app, and remove it by uninstalling it or deleting the executable.
Uninstalling leaves %APPDATA%\SolutionerTools\BillingClient in place so a reinstall does not lose your printer assignments and pairing. To remove every trace, delete that folder as well.
