Provide Access to Your Environments

You can provide the user's credentials to your employees who need to access Maconomy.

As the SaaS Administrator, during the implementation process you will receive a Welcome email that includes information about the URLs that all employees will use to access Maconomy SaaS. The Welcome Email also includes a link to a secure URL site from which the SaaS Administrator and other employees can download a version installer for the Workspace Client.

You can distribute the URLs (along with each user’s credentials) and the Workspace Client download URL to all employees in your organization that need to access Maconomy. However, you should ensure that all user accounts are set up in Maconomy prior to distributing the URLs. During initial training the consulting team will instruct you on how to create your employees and users in the system.

Note: In order for users to access the Deltek Cloud system, you will need to allow outbound Internet access on ports 443 and 8443.

Workspace Client

The SaaS Administrator can download the Workspace Client installer via the secure URL given in the Activation email. It is then the responsibility of the SaaS Administrator to pass the secure URL to the relevant users within the organization.

The Workspace Client is available for both Windows and Macintosh users. Each Maconomy release contains a TPU package, which in turn contains a WSC package containing a ZIP file, a Windows-installable package (.MSI), and a Macintosh-installable package (.DMG).

Deltek Best Practice

Windows Installation
  1. Carefully locate the ZIP file, such as:
    • Maconomy-20_0.p001e-dirmi-win32.win32.x86.zip
  2. Extract this file and install the Workspace Client on the user’s machine.

Deltek Best Practice

Macintosh Installation

  1. Carefully locate the DMG file, such as:
    • Maconomy-20_0.p001e-dirmi-macosx.cocoa.x86_64.dmg
  2. Extract the DMG package.
  3. Install the Workspace Client on the user’s desktop or in the user’s Home folder in order to allow read/write access. This ensures that the WSC automatically updates in all scenarios.

The connection settings for the Workspace Client are also provided in the Activation Email. These will be entered the first time you open the Workspace Client.

Prepopulate IP Address and Port Number

When installing the Workspace Client, you can prepopulate the IP address and Port number in the .ini file so that the end-user does not need to enter them at first login. Update Sites overwrite the .ini file when the Client is automatically updated following an upgrade. If you would like to prepopulate IP addresses and Port numbers for end users and would like this to be maintained post-upgrade, you must implement a .cmd wrapper to launch the WSC, such as:

Maconomy.exe -a <hostname> -p <portnumber>

iAccess

Users of iAccess access the solution via a URL, such as https://companyname.deltekfirst.com/

Touch Time

Users of Touch Time can download the latest version of the ‘Deltek Touch for Maconomy’ App. For iOS this can be downloaded from the App Store and for Android it can be downloaded from Google Play.

When first accessing the application enter the URL given in the Activation Email into the Server URL field.
