Starting the setup process for your Job Manager system first involves logging in as the Administrator user in the appropriate Job Manager module. When the system is started, a connection is established between it and the server computer running the Application Server and Microsoft SQL Server database software. For this reason, make sure you have successfully installed and have running both the SQL Server and the Application Server programs.

Logging in as the Administrator user

1. Type the URL for the Workgroups Portal web server in the address bar of your web browser and click Go/press Return/Enter. The web browser will connect to the Workgroups Portal web server and display the login page.

2. Type "Administrator" in the user name field. This is the default user name for the Administrator account and cannot be changed.
3. Type "admin" in the Password field. This is the default Administrator password.

Note: The default Administrator password should be changed immediately the first time you log in.

4. Optional: Enable the "Remember me" checkbox if you would like your login credentials remembered by Workgroups Portal.

Caution: You should not enable the Remember Me checkbox for the Administrator account unless you are the only with access to the current workstation.

5. Click Login. If login credentials are valid, Workgroups Portal will open to the home page assigned for your account.

Once you have successfully logged in to Workgroups Portal, you can begin your work within Job Manager.
