When using SQL API where the Server is located on a different machine (Different 
IP Address), the "Distributed Transaction Coordinator (DTC)"  needs to be 
configured.
Steps to Configure DTC
  - Enable "DTS Services" on the SQL Server hosting the FMIS/Integration 
  database. Refer to Figure 1. 
  
    - Navigate to "Administrative Tools - Component 
    Services - Services (Local)" on the machine. 
    
 - Search for "Distributed Transaction Coordinator" 
    
 - Right on the services and go the "Properties". 
    This will open a form with the service name as "MSDTC". 
    
 - Set the "Startup Type" to "Automatic". 
    
 - Enable the service.  Click on "Start" the service in the left section. Refer to Figure 2 and Figure 
    3.
 
   -  Configure the Firewall on both SQL Servers to allow DTC 
  for all 3 (RPC, RPC-EPMAP, TCP-IN) in the Inbound and Outbound Rules. Refer to 
  figure 2 below         
                
     
  
  - Navigate to "Administrative Tools - Windows 
    Defender Firewall with Advanced Security".
 
  
 - Go into "Inbound and Outbound" rules.
 
  
 - Search for "Distributed Transaction Coordinator" .
 
  
 -          
      Enable the rule. Click on the "Enable Rule" option in 
  the right panel.
 
     
 
   -          
           Enable DTC security controls. Refer to Figure 4. 
  
     
 
  -          
      Navigate to "Administrative Tools - Component 
    Services - Computers - My Computer - Distributed Transaction Coordinator".     
 
  
 -          
      Right-click on "Local DTC", select "Properties" and 
    set the options shown in figure 3 on both SQL Servers machines.
 
         
            
             
 
   -          
                
    Restart both machines.
