User Account Management Overview
When logging on to an EcoStruxure BMS server, you have to authenticate yourself by using a valid user account. The user account has to belong to the same domain as the server you log on to.
The user account has to be a member of at least one user account group or be mapped through an active directory user account group. To restrict the user, software permissions are added to the user account group or to the individual user account. One or more customized workspaces can be connected to the user account group.
When logging on to the EcoStruxure BMS server that acts as the domain controller, in this example an Enterprise Server, you have access to all EcoStruxure BMS servers in the domain without using additional log on. If you log on to an individual EcoStruxure BMS server you have no access to other EcoStruxure BMS servers in the domain.
The EcoStruxure BMS considers a user account valid when:
The user account exists
The user account is not disabled or expired
The user account belongs to a user account group or mapped active directory user group
The user account group belongs to a domain
The user account has defined software permissions, either defined on the individual account or inherited from the user account group
A user account can be a member of one or more user account groups and belongs to a particular domain.

Domains
An EcoStruxure Building Operation domain contains user accounts, user account groups, software permissions, workspaces, and one or several EcoStruxure BMS servers. The EcoStruxure BMS server that hosts and administers the domain is called the domain controller.

Software Permissions
Software permissions are used to manage privileges that user account groups and user accounts own to objects in Building Operation software. In the EcoStruxure Building Operation software, you can assign two types of software permissions to user account groups and user accounts: path permissions and command permissions. You can also assign extended permissions to all the instances of folder structure or of a custom type.
