Hi,

 

When starting APB, the system prompts the user to log in again, even if the user is allready logged in to the main client (IFS 10 IEE).

Activating SSO doesn’t seem possible for APB.

 

Is there any way this re-login can be avoided?

Hi @First Employee ,

 

You will have to re-login each time. 

As I saw, this has been done to align with certain security measures because APB opens as a separate client (can operate even with IEE closed).

Thank you @Tharindu Illangasinghe !

 

SSO is not supported at this moment, are you aware that might be the case in the future?

@First Employee  don’t think so. Same re-logging needs to be done with Aurena too in APP10.

Internally APB uses the same login mechanism used by the IFS Enterprise Explorer.

  1. If you enable any login options using ‘Ifs.Fnd.Explorer.appsettings’ file it will affect the APB login dialog as well.
  2. Technically if user selects “use single sign-on” option in IFS EE startup dialog then same setting will be used by the APB.

However if you are using aurena client above approaches will not work. To get same support in Aurena client, do following. This is applicable only for APP10 SU12 and later.

  1. Use Aurena client to open APB. While downloading APB client from sever, keep press Shift key. Once clickonce download is completed, above dialog will appear. You can select an option and continue.
  2. This setting will be saved to users local setting and will be re-used from next session onward.
  3. If you want to change the setting, follow the same steps as step 1.
