First Steps in Aptean AppCentral

To get started with Aptean AppCentral, perform the following:

  1. Identify Your License Subscription:
    The Aptean Support team will help you choose the license subscription that best fits your business needs. If you are already using Aptean products, you can migrate to Aptean AppCentral while retaining your existing user information. For assistance, contact the Aptean Support team.

  2. Onboarding Process:
    Once your order is processed, you receive a Welcome email with the URL to access Aptean AppCentral. This email also serves as your Proof of Delivery (POD). It guides you through the sign-in process and includes your Seed user credentials.

  3. Seed User Information:
    The Seed user is the primary user of Aptean AppCentral and has full administrative privileges. As a Seed user, you can activate applications according to your license subscription. For more details on managing user roles, refer to the access management section.

The Seed user is designated as an administrator in Aptean AppCentral. By default, the Made2Manage (M2M) Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) application is activated and set up for access. You receive an activation email after the AppCentral onboarding email.

Sign In to Your Account

  1. Open the Aptean AppCentral URL in your browser.
  2. Enter your credentials and click Sign In.
