|
Xlogonrequired |

|

|
Xpassword |
Setting this to Yes means the customer needs to create a password so that they can login on future visits. |
|

2. Enter
the config in the search box and press the “Search” button.

Setting Xcustomerrequiresauthorization toYes
means you need to authorize any registrations before the customer can login. By
adding a 1 to the authorized field of the customer record, they will be
allowed to login. Adding 0 will not allow them to login. A blank means they have
not yet been flagged as authorized or unauthorized.
