Select User Account Mode

The Select User Account Mode page determines the number of accounts that will have separate secure access to SAS software on this computer.

Single-user mode is appropriate if only one person will use the deployment. This mode might also be appropriate if everyone who uses the deployment can share an account. In single-user mode, you cannot make any access distinctions among users, because one account owns all files and runs all programs.

Multiple-user mode is recommended if more than one person will use the deployment. This mode offers maximum security and protection of sensitive data. For information about the additional accounts that this mode requires, see your pre-installation checklist.

When you have identified the type of account access you want for this computer, click Next to continue.
