Log in

The first time that you open IXIASOFT CCMS, or if you are working in a new workspace, you must enter your access information.

Depending on your confirmation, once the information is validated, you may be logged in automatically whenever you open IXIASOFT CCMS Desktop from your workstation. If the administrator has disabled auto-login, you will need to connect to the servers every time that you log in.
