Create SQL Account

Getting Started #

If you have Vista hosted in the Cloud, then each TAD user will need a separate SQL Account. That ensures each user retains the same security restrictions as their Vista account. You will also be able to filter the TAD Log table for the individual users.

Create Account #

On the Vista main menu, go to Viewpoint Administration –> Programs –> VA User Profile

1. Enter your User Name in the format of firstname.lastname.tad
2. Enter your Full Name
3. Enter your Email Address with a “2” at the end to bypass the duplicate email error.
4. Change the User Type to User Application so it doesn’t count against your licenses and prevents users from signing into Vista.
5. Click the Save button

You will be prompted with the message below. Click the OK button.

You will be prompted to enter a password for the account.

Enter the password and click the OK button to finalize the account.

Data Security #

If you have data security active then you must add the necessary Security Groups to the new account. Otherwise, the user will not see any data when downloading in TAD.
