Install Checkpoint Tools for PPC

Before you install Checkpoint Tools for PPC, make sure you meet the system requirements and have a Checkpoint user ID with Tools products assigned to it. Product assignments are done in the Checkpoint User Administration System by your site administrator. If you didn't receive an email with your Checkpoint user ID and instructions on how to sign in to Checkpoint, or you're having issues assign Tools products to users, email a product request.
Checkpoint Tools for PPC are available to install on a local computer or network, and is also available on Virtual Office CS. It also includes PPC's Practice Aids, PPC's Workpapers, PPC's Interactive Disclosure Checklist, and PPC's Engagement Letter Generator.
