Manage Logins

Each SAP ASE user must have a login account that is identified by a unique login name and a password.

To access a server, users must have a login account with a unique name and password. When a login account is added to one or more servers, the account is given a unique system user ID, which identifies the users regardless of the server being used. Once a login account is created, a user account is created for users to access individual database. Login profiles can be associated with a login account to manage attributes such as the default database, default language, authentication mechanism, tracking the login, setting inactivity periods, and invoking login scripts.

The options for managing login accounts are:

• Grant roles to logins
