Prior to starting FactoryTalk Transaction Manager, if you:

are not recognized as the SSO user,

do not have a Windows-linked user account in the FactoryTalk
Directory.

Then FactoryTalk Transaction Manager recognizes that an SSO is not
present at startup. You are prompted with the Log on to FactoryTalk dialog
box. Either:

Enter a valid FactoryTalk user name and password - In this case,
you are immediately logged into FactoryTalk Transaction Manager and
your user information represents the computer-wide SSO user.

Cancel the log on prompt - In this case, FactoryTalk Transaction
Manager starts up with the default system graphic displayed. To use
FactoryTalk Transaction Manager effectively, you must select Security
> Logon
; you are immediately logged into FactoryTalk Transaction
Manager and your user information represents the computer-wide SSO
user.
