Get started with AVEVA Unified Engineering

One of prerequisites to getting started with AVEVA Unified Engineering on CONNECT (AVEVA Unified Engineering) is to have a clear understanding of your organization's requirements, your users and their profiles, and how to organize your AVEVA Unified Engineering environments. This information is crucial in understanding how many environments your organization needs and creating a folder structure accordingly. After you gather this information, you can proceed with creating folders, adding users, adding them to groups and assigning roles. For information on how to perform these tasks, refer to the CONNECT documentation.

As an administrator, you must perform the following tasks to enable users to start working on AVEVA Unified Engineering. For information on how to perform these tasks, refer to the CONNECT Quick Start Guide and the remaining section in this guide.

1. Create CONNECT folder(s).

2. Enable the Unified Engineering service on the folder(s).

3. Contact AVEVA Support to link the Unified Engineering service infrastructure to your CONNECT folder(s). This is currently a manual process that may be automated in a future release.

4. Add users.

5. (Optional) Add custom groups.

   For each Unified Engineering service, AVEVA provides a default set of groups out of the box. You can create your own custom groups, add to the default groups, remove the default groups, or substitute the groups as you see fit. For information about the default groups, see Default groups and assigned roles for AVEVA Unified Engineering.

6. Add users to groups.

7. Assign desktops.
