ProjectWise User Synchronization Service is the server module that lets you create user accounts in the datasource, based on existing Windows domain or Active Directory accounts, and that also leverage the credentials of those accounts. Once these ProjectWise user accounts are created, you can use ProjectWise User Synchronization Service to keep those accounts synchronized with any changes made to their domain or Active Directory counterparts.

ProjectWise User Synchronization Service has two components:

• ProjectWise User Synchronization Service Administrator
• ProjectWise User Synchronization Service Engine

You can install both options on the same computer, or you can install each option on a separation computer. The ProjectWise User Synchronization Service Administrator option requires ProjectWise Administrator.

The ProjectWise User Synchronization Service Engine runs as a native Windows service, and is managed through the User Synchronization Service node in ProjectWise Administrator (which is available when the ProjectWise User Synchronization Service Administrator option is installed on the ProjectWise Administrator computer).

After installation, see User Synchronization Service.
