  1. Log in to the database server and launch the Aptify Desktop client using a system administrator account.
    • The creation of users should be performed using the Desktop client. The Aptify User Administration wizard is not supported in the Aptify web interface.
    • If you have not previously installed the Aptify Desktop client on your database server, you will need to do that first. You will only be able to add the database server's local user as an Aptify user by running the Aptify Desktop client on the database server directly. See Installing the Aptify Desktop Client.
       
  2. Launch the User Administration wizard from the Users service.
  3. In step 1 of the wizard, select the Windows Integrated Security (recommended) option to specify that you are creating a trusted user account.
  4. In step 2 of the wizard, select the database_server local computer from the Domain drop-down list, and from the Account list, select the ebizuser account you created earlier.
    • The Domain drop-down list in the User Administration wizard only identifies the local machine and its associated workgroups and domains. Therefore, only the local machine appears in this field. This is why you need to create the user by running the Aptify Desktop client directly on the database server.
       
  5. Complete the User Administration wizard to create a user account for the database_server\ebizuser user.
    • Note that this user must be assigned a valid user license to successfully communicate with the database server.
    • Configure the account with the appropriate privileges to conduct e-Business activity. The specific permission set required for the e-Business user depends on the type of user activity that will be conducted on your website.
    • Also, link the account to an Employees record in Aptify (such as a new -Employees record named "Web User").
       
  6. If you do not want the Aptify Desktop client installed on the database server, you can now uninstall it. See Uninstalling the Aptify Desktop Client.
