Contenta Explorer

The Contenta System Administrator is assigned the login name sysadmin for logging in to the database and accessing the Contenta applications. In the Contenta Explorer and Contenta Web applications, the sysadmin login has its own Desktop called sysadmin.

The Contenta sysadmin login to Contenta Explorer allows you to:

  • modify any object in the Contenta database, including Projects or data in Projects that are owned by other users
  • create, view, or modify all User Desktops
  • create and modify Workflow Templates
  • forward a Project to any Task within the Project Workflow, regardless of workflow sequence
  • view Notes sent to other User Desktops
  • allow or restrict user access to data

The sysadmin user is the only user that can log in and access Contenta Explorer and the database when the database is first created. The sysadmin must create the User Desktops within the Contenta database for other users to access Contenta Explorer and the database.
