multiple login disable in BO

[Former Member]

Is there a way through which we can disable multiple simultaneous login so that one user can login from just one machine at a time.

Which authentication type do you use?

Hi Vishal,

Is restricting of multiple simultaneous login a specific requirement? what is the version of your BO? please provide some more details as to whats driving you for this requirement.

Please refer to below note and see if you are facing any issue as below.

Hello Mallik,

Thanks for the reply. BO version is 4.0 Enterprise SP4. Our requirement is that users should not login with one BO ID from multiple machines simultaneously. We have limited user license and we want to restrict one user usage to just one machine at a time only.

Hello Vishal,

This is not directly possible. You cannot simply restrict users to login more than once as this is contrary to the concept of named User licensing (Ability to login multiple times in Multiple BusinessObjects tools).

But if you still want to do this SDK is the only approach in front of you.

There is no out of box solution for this. You may need to use SDK to limit the sessions. Post your question SDK forum for faster response.
