In this video I'm going to show you how to log into Acid Accountant using
0:04
single sign-on from Microsoft Azure Active Directory. Because Acid
0:08
Accountant is a verified publisher, no additional configuration is required.
0:12
However, your organization IT security policy may require that SSO login be
0:17
approved before you are able to gain access. To log in, perform the following
0:22
steps. Navigate to Acid Accountant. If you're already logged in using username
0:25
and password authentication, sign out.
0:30
Be then redirected to sign in using your credentials. On the sign-in screen, click
0:34
on the sign in with Microsoft button.
0:41
Enter the email address and password of your SSO credentials.
1:01
Depending on the IT security policy of your organization, you'll see one of
1:06
three screens. These IT policies are set by the IT department of your
1:10
organization and not by Acid Accountant. In this instance, IT policy allows this
1:15
user to self-consent Acid Accountant SSO. I can simply accept the request and the
1:22
system will log in as expected. If however you are presented with this
1:27
screen or a screen to request permission, your IT department has
1:31
restricted access to SSO login. If you can request access, your IT administrator
1:36
can grant access on a user-by-user basis. Your IT administrator can grant consent
1:41
for your entire organization by logging in with an AD administrator account. A
1:45
shortcut for this is shown on the screen. Here I am signing in with the
1:50
administrator account and I simply grant consent for the organization.
2:09
Selecting this button will grant consent for the organization.
2:14
Now that consent has been granted, the next time the test user logs in, they're
2:22
able to authenticate immediately and access the application.
2:45
Please note that in this case, no registers have been shared with the test
2:51
user account. The Acid Accountant register owner will need to share the
2:55
appropriate registers accordingly.
