    QuickStart Guide

    What is the purpose of this information?

    To provide the basic steps for any user wanting to use a Subscription Entitlement Service (SES) product, who only needs minimum explanation to complete the registration and installation process from start to finish. It is possible that some of these initial setup steps have already been completed by your administrator. In which case, please skip to the next step.

    * Please Note: This does not include alerting, users and groups, and license check-in/check-out.  The detailed process is outlined here for those that may need additional instructions or want to configure these options.

    1. Register as a User
    2. Install Applications
    3. Install CONNECTION Client
    4. Create Password
    5. Open the Application
    6. Sign In

    Step 1 - Register as a User

    Determine your user level: 

    User Level Definition
    A single user who is the Fulfillment contact Your contract designates you as an Account Administrator with download rights. Therefore, you are already a Registered User and can proceed to step 2
    A single user who is not the Fulfillment contact You can register yourself by using the Individual User Registration Process.
    An Account Administrator for your entire Organization You can use the Admin Registration process to add all of your users.

Bentley occasionally deploys new versions with bug fixes or new features, so it is important to be on the latest version. If you do not have rights to download, please contact your Account Administrator.

    Step 3 - Open CONNECTION Client

    Sign in using the email address and password that was entered during the registration process.

    Step 4 - Create Password

    If you do not have a password, create your password by using the ‘Forgot Your Password’ option in the CONNECTION Client.

       

    Step 4 - Open the application

    Open/Start the CONNECT Edition SES application.

       

    Step 7 - Be Productive!
