The purpose of the site user is to provide an additional level of security for access to SAP Business One data when
important administrative actions can be performed. While the actions of a regular SAP Business One user or
superuser at company or database level, the actions of the location user are valid at customer location level,
where a site can include both a licence server and several other servers.
The site user ID serves as authentication at site level for carrying out the following activities:
- Configure Database-Credentials
- Create company
- Configuring services: e.g. registering database servers and configuring their access permissions in the
Licence Manager Security Settings - Add-on registration
- Company upgrades
- Updating read-only user passwords
In the following situations, a site user password is required for authentication against the licence server:
- Configuring services with SAP Business One Service Manager
- These services are SBO Backup, SBO DI Server, License Manager and SBO Mailer.
- Install SAP Business One servers
- Creating new companies on SAP Business One clients
