Microsoft Dynamics NAV 8.0 - Login Account

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Xavi Arnau 5

Hi all,

I am trying to change the Login Account settings to start using a SQL Login instead of a Domain Account. However, when I select "User Account" as a service account, I have to enter the following details:

User Name
Domain
Password
Confirm Password

I can't leave the domain empty. Could you please detail how to configure a SQL Login as a Login Account?

Thanks,
Xavi

    Hello,

    There are two different things. Select Service Account  in NST Administrator console / PowerShell . This is with with domain account or machine account if operating in WORKGROUP mode.  Select Database Credentials to use SQL Server authentication in NST. You then have these two configured.

    You must be trying to login on the Server?

    On Dev Environment - Ente Server Information then SQL ID and Password and it will give access to entire Database.

    Another user logging into RTC must be a user from SQl Side.

    Let  me know if I understood something wrong.
