Configure IFS Apps 10 Connector

Information

All of Novacura’s IFS10 marketplace apps require an IFS database connector unless otherwise specified. This process will guide you through the basics of configuring your first IFS Application 10 connector.

The same process can be used for IFS applications 9. However, support for IFS Applications 9 with our applications is not guaranteed.

Authentication

It is an individual companies process that defines which method to authenticate with the IFS Database.

There are several authentication methods available, an example is listed below:

• Global user

• Global user with user-level impersonation

• User-level database authentication

This guide will use the most basic global authentication practice. This is not recommended for production environments.

For further information on connector authentication options please contact your Novacura representative.
