Setting Up the SQL Database

The UMS supports only those standard sortings of Microsoft SQL Server which are case insensitive ("CI"). Therefore, make sure that the parameter Collation in MS SQL Server is set appropriately

Execute the following SQL script on the Microsoft SQL Server to create database, login, user, and schema. Replace the placeholders such as [databasename] with settings of your choice.

...

.

Info

The user name for the external database may only be created with the following properties:

  • it consists only of lower case letters or upper case letters.

  • the low-cut character ("_") is the only special character, which is allowed.

Do not mix upper and lower case letters. Don't use points, spaces, minus, or @ sign!
