Notes

• If a wrong user ID or a wrong password are entered, the User and/or password are unknown error message is displayed. A new entry can be made.
• You can use PLANTA Standard users for demonstration purposes.
  • The PLANTA Standard users are only available if PLANTA demo data is installed.
  • These standard users contain assignments of PLANTA Standard roles.
  • PLANTA Standard users are used without passwords.
    • This does not apply to the P20 and R90 users. Please contact your PLANTA consultant to obtain the password for this user.

Special Case: Login with Several Users (User Change)

Information

• In some cases it may be necessary to log-on with another user. This may be the case if, e.g., a customizer customizes a particular function for a particular user role and wants to test it with the respective user.
• In this case, PLANTA recommends that you create another client link for the second user.
  • This procedure is more advantageous than the user change because you can be logged-on with both users at the same time and do not have to switch back and forth.

Tip

• Since version C 39.5.22 you have the option to store the user data and the password of the user in the client and activate automatic login so that you are logged-on with the required user when you open the client. The following client parameters must be preset in the client link:
  • autologin=true
  • user= code of the required user
  • password= password of the required user
