Please contact us or get in touch with your Microsoft Dynamics Partner or IT administrator to get this information.

Login Information

Account

The account field is either a server name, IP address or Anveo Instance Name. The type will be identified automatically.

Server names and IP addresses must contain at least one dot (.). All names without a dot are identified as type “Anveo Instance Name”. If you want to use a server name without any top level domain (.com or .local), just add a dot at the end.

Examples for server names and IP addresses:
public address: anveo.mycompany.com
local address: anveo.mydomain.local
local short address (important: with a dot at the end): myserver.
IPv4 addresses: 192.168.76.10
IPv6 addresses must be written in square brackets: [2001:db8::]

Example for Anveo Instance Names:
mycompany
my-company

The log-in type using an Anveo Instance Name instead a server name and port is a new feature that has been released in March 2021 and is used for all Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central Online environments. In future on-premises releases, this log-in type can also be used for local installations.
The key benefit is to reduce the information required for a login and to simplify the login process. The Anveo Instance Name is a directory services provided by Anveo to map server names and TCP ports to an Anveo Server Instance name.

“Anveo Server TCP-Port”

A port parameter is required if you add a server using a server name or IP-address. The Anveo Instance Name does not require to enter a port number.

Depending on the configuration, the user name is an Anveo User, Windows User or Dynamics User (UserPassword) account in your Microsoft Dynamics system.

Depending on the type of account, please use one of the following syntax. It is important that you use the correct syntax for your login type in order for the login to work.
