Issue on log in

[Former Member]

SAP Business One version 9.0 doesn't support logging in same user name at the same time. However there are some cases client wants to share their user id to their colleagues. Is there any query I can create to prompt the second user that the first user is still log in? Or any possible way around how can I not allow the second user to use the id that still in use?

Will appreciate all your answers.

Hi,

Not possible in SAP 9 to use 1 license at the same time.

My suggestion is that your customer has to buy more licenses.

it is a common log in for a particular department, and we all agree to use that since they are not regular users. But my question is that it that possible to  create an alert to prompt the second user that there's still user who is still using that account?

In B1, you can't run anything because the 2nd user is not logged on.

In SQL you can run this query comparing if the dates and times of the logins

select

User_code, lastlogin, LstLoginT, LstLogoutD, LstLogoutT from ousr

Hope it helps

Hi,

9.0 not allow one id to open two client at a same time, not like previous version, one id can open 2 at the same times in a same DB.

Anyway, how do you prompt the 2nd user if he/she can't login?

When 2nd user trying to login with id that already in use, system will display a message "cannot log on; the user is already connected to the same company."

Would suggest those colleagues who are sharing id should communicate and plan well when using the SAP id.

Or other way is just downgrade to 8.8, only if your license can support.

Hi Olga, your statement "When 2nd user trying to login with id that already in use, system will display a message "cannot log on; the user is already connected to the same company." is not really happening if the user has a limited license. it's only applicable in manager user.

Do you think I can create alert to prompt the second user? can you share a query for this?

Hi,

Do you mean if the user own a limited license, the user ID can be open in 2 clients at the same times? Systems will not prompt any message?

Sorry, I not sure about the query.

Thanks

No. I mean, there's no prompt message like "cannot log on; the user is already connected to the same company."  It will automatically log out the first user and the second user can use the account. What should I do to prevent the second user from that without the verbally informing the second user?
