Add an Additional Database in Antero 7

Antero simplifies the process of creating additional databases for various purposes such as department, facility, equipment changes, or training.

  1. To access the File menu, simply click on the main application ribbon.
  2. Click on the Database Admin option. If the current user has the required permissions, they will be able to access the Database Administration section. If not, they should reach out to a facility administrator with Database Admin privileges in User Security. This section offers advanced features like User Security, Restore Backup, and Database Options.

  3. Choose the "Add Database" option located on the right-hand side of the menu. This action will trigger a dialog window to appear on the screen.

  4. In the dialog window that appears, type in a name for your new database in the Database Name field. Once you have entered the name, click on the OK button located at the top right corner of the dialog window.

  5. If the database name meets the required format, Antero will generate a new database with the specified name. Additionally, it will include the Windows domain/workgroup account currently logged into Windows as a user in Antero's User Security with full permissions.
  6. After creating the new database, the next step involves adding the required users to the User Security section. Additionally, you will need to set up Equipment, Templates, and Tasks to complete the setup process.
