User Requirements

User Requirements

On local computer

To install and authenticate DataSight, a user must have administrator rights on the local computer. Once DataSight is installed, users no longer require administrative rights to operate it.

Note

To install and register on Windows Vista, you should have Administrator rights on the system or ‘User Account Control’ must be turned off.

If you are required to re-authenticate your license please ensure that you have administrative privileges on the local computer.

 

If user requirements on the local computer are not met, DataSight will not install.

 

On SQL Server

All DataSight users require read and write permissions to a database, and it is recommended that each user is assigned a 'db_owner' role for DataSight databases. This permission can be granted by a DataSight Administrator user with administrative privileges on the Microsoft SQL Server to perform actions, such as creating and backing-up databases, creating users and editing user permissions.

If you cannot connect to your database or cannot access all the functionalities of DataSight after successful installation, please contact your IT/Database Administrator to check your permissions of access to the database and/or your DataSight Security rights.
