Assigning Database Administrators

If security is enabled for a Concordance database, you need to specify an administrative user for that database in the FYI Admin Console. The assigned database administrator user logon and password is needed to synchronize databases for client accounts that they manage, and is the same logon and password used to log on to the Concordance Security Console for a Concordance database.

When you first register a database in the FYI Admin Console, you will see a message stating that the administrator credentials are not set or valid. Once you enter the database administrator logon and password  for the database on the Management tab, the information message disappears.
