Concurrent users

Update 30 Aug 2018

According to Sage, users logged on to the CRM Webservice do not count as an extra user. see https://community.sagecrm.com/partner_community/b/hints_tips_and_tricks/archive/2018/08/30/sage-crm-2018-r3-concurrent-users-web-services-and-licenses.aspx

Logging off concurrent users If concurrent user sessions are not killed then they will stay there and take up a license.

You can disconnect the user (and log off) via the "Connected" button on the 'CRM Together' Ribbon


Active Directory Integration

Sage's own web-services do NOT use the active directory logon information/authentication.

As Accelerator uses the CRM web services API to log on to CRM and get a valid session for the user you have to maintain and use the password stored in CRM (and not the users Active directory password).
