The database code.
Note

Create the database in the Database Definitions (ttaad4510m000) session.

OS Authentication
If this check box is selected,, no password is required for an LN user. The user must be defined manually as an OS Authenticated user in the RDBMS. The actual procedure depends on the RDBMS. Whether or not the porting set supports this kind of authentication can be found in the Release Notes of the porting set at hand.
System logon
If this check box is selected, the system login of the Tools user is mapped to a database user.

The system logon is defined in the User Data (ttaad2500m000) session.

Group
The database group code.

A database group is unique in every database. You must create a database group before you create a database user, because the database user is always part of a database group.
