To Add a New Tenant by Using the MYOB Acumatica ERP Configuration Wizard
To Add a New Tenant
- Run the MYOB Acumatica ERP Configuration Wizard on the server where MYOB Acumatica is installed. For example, select Start > MYOB Acumatica > MYOB Acumatica.
- On the Welcome page, click Perform Application Maintenance.
- On the Application Maintenance page, do the following:
- In the Installed Sites list, select the appropriate MYOB Acumatica instance.
- Click Maintain Tenants.
- In the SQL Server Authentication dialog box, select the authentication method to be used to connect to the database.
- Click OK.
- On the Tenant Setup page, click Create to add a new
tenant.
A new row is appended to the table with the New check box selected.
- To rename the tenant, double-click the tenant name in the Tenant
Name column, type a new tenant name, and press Enter.Note: This name is used only when there are multiple tenants; otherwise, the Sign-In page will not have an option to select a tenant.
- If you want to fill the database with demo data or template data, select
SalesDemo in the Insert Data column.Note: Demo data entries with names such as U100 and T100 contain demo data and are made for completing MYOB education courses with similar names.
- Optional: For each tenant, specify the following:
- Visible: Select this check box to have this tenant available for the end users.
- Parent Tenant ID: Select the identifier of the tenant you want to use as the parent for this tenant.
- Secure Tenant on the Sign-In Page: This check box defines whether all tenants of the instance are displayed on the Sign-In page. When the check box is selected, the box where the tenant can be selected from the Sign-In page of the instance will not be displayed until a user enters the username and password. After the user is authorized, the system displays a list of the companies where the user has the user account that was entered.
The following read-only settings are also displayed for each tenant:
- ID: The numerical identifier of the tenant.
- New: A check box that indicates (if selected) that this tenant is newly created and has not been deployed yet. If the check box is cleared, the tenant has been deployed.
- Additional Info: The tenant name in the database.
If you want to delete a tenant that you just added (that is, one with the New check box selected), do the following:
- In the Installed Tenants list, select the row of the newly added tenant.
- Click Delete.
- Optional: Select the Advanced Settings check box so that the MYOB Acumatica ERP Configuration Wizard enables options, such as defining parent datasets and inserting datasets, and displays the System tenant.
- On the Confirmation of Configuration page, do the following:
- Check the configuration settings you have specified.
- If you want to save the configuration settings in an XML file on your computer, click Save Configuration.
- Click Finish to deploy the new tenant.
