Single Sign-on (SSO) with Azure AD is a service from Microsoft that allows users to gain access to Microsoft apps, as well as cloud-based, on-premises and SaaS apps, with just one set of credentials. Your team members then only have to remember one password and enter credentials once as well.
In addition to faster and easier sign-on, SSO offers a number of other benefits:
Note: Microsoft Single Sign-on is only available for projectfacts customers with standard or own hosting.
SSO login via Microsoft is also available via the central login screen. Microsoft Single Sign-on requires an active Microsoft 365 account. You can link this to projectfacts via the configuration. To do this, switch to the “General” area and select the “Interfaces” menu item. First, you have to grant projectfacts “Access to Microsoft Graph” via the corresponding button in the action box. Then assign your employees to the appropriate system users via “Assign Azure AD users”.
You can allow or force the use of SSO. In the former case, employees decide for themselves whether they want to use SSO. In the latter case, it is mandatory that all employees log in to the system using SSO, and the traditional login will no longer work.
