Contextual Help - The Login Page
The Login Page is where you can open an AceProject session. For security purposes, each user must provide his/her username and password.
The Buttons at the Top
  • The "Help" button brings you to AceProject's help system. This section offers help-related documents you can use to learn more about specific AceProject features.
  • The "Français" link lets you change the language used in the interface for French.
The Connection Information Fields
  • The "Username" field is used to provide the user's identifier in your account. (e.g. User = John Smith / Username = jsmith). The system uses cookies to record your username.
  • The "Password" is linked with the username.
    • You can check the "Remember Password" box if you do not want to enter your password every time you login.
    • Passwords are encrypted using the "md5" cryptographic algorithm. Hence, passwords are case sensitive and neither us nor your account administrators can see them. This puts the level of security of your data at a very high level. If your forgot your password, you will have to use the "Forgot Password?" link to enter a new one, since it cannot be retrieved.
The Links at the Bottom
  • The "Forgot Password?" link lets you recover your password in case you forgot it. Upon clicking this link, you will be asked to provide your email address. Then, an email will be sent to you. It will include the required information to complete the next step, in order to enter a new password.
  • The "Follow AceProject" section contains links to various sites where you may keep posted on AceProject, particularly in regards to the content of our updates. This section may be hidden or displayed depending on an account preference which is set in the "Branding" page under the "Admin" tab.
Troubleshooting
