There are two types of authentication allowed: Standard and Windows. Windows authentication can only be used if the user account within PRAMS has been linked to a Windows account.

Standard authentication can always be used. Both types of authentication require a DKF file to be specified.

Standard Login Type

Specify the location of the DKF file, the PRAMS username and password and click ‘Connect’. By default the DKF location and username are remembered.
You can optionally check ‘Remember password’ if you wish to remember the password as well. This information is stored locally in an encrypted file on the user’s PC.

Windows Login Type

When using this type of authentication the only required value be the location of the DKF file. The Username will default to the Windows ID of the user currently logged in to the PC.
If a valid user account has been linked to this Windows ID the user will be logged in to that account.

Analyst X2 Client Installation (Non-Standard)

Larger organizations or ones that have cloud based installations will not want to use the standard installation process.

In these cases you become responsible for creating and maintaining the modules used to run the software.

Please contact your PRAMS support representative for information on the required client files that are necessary and how to check for updates that need to be applied.
