Issue
Managing separate logins for ION Enterprise/Struxureware Power Monitoring(SPM)/Power Monitoring Expert(PME) can increase maintenance costs and become cumbersome.

Product Line
ION Enterprise 5.x 6.x
Sturxureware Power Monitoring 7.0.x
Power Monitoring Expert 7.2.x /  8.x / 9.x

Cause
ION Enterprise/SPM/PME uses software based logins.

Environment
Windows
ION Enterprise/SPM/PME

Resolution
PME 8.x and older versions:
No. The ION Enterprise/SPM/PME does NOT integrate with Active Directory.

Active Directory integration means an application has the ability to access the built in Windows security database, or use "Windows Integrated Authentication" when signing in.
Each application inherits privileges based on a set of user rights assigned from within Windows Active Directory
There is NO such interaction between the Windows Active Directory and ION Enterprise.
ION Enterprise retains an independent user database for application authentication.

PME 9.x:
Active directory integration will be incorporated into PME 9 and newer revisions.
