MyCentre is a software and information management portal that hosts PSCAD products, including software downloads and certificate licenses for running PSCAD.
Within it, software products belonging to each customer organization are grouped into one or more workgroups. Authorized members of an organization may obtain access to their workgroup by each creating a user account, and having their account linked to the workgroup. Users may then simply enter their MyCentre login credentials to obtain access to the products.
Access to an organization’s workgroups is managed by the organization, by designated members of the workgroup with workgroup administrator privileges.
A user account is required to be able to obtain access to MyCentre and any authorized products.
Upon registration, permanent licensing for running the Free Edition will automatically be assigned. Refer to Setting up the Free Edition.
If authorized, a user account may be linked to a workgroup containing an organization’s software downloads and certificate licenses.
Workgroups are virtual containers for grouping software products, including software downloads and certificate licenses for running PSCAD.
One workgroup containing permanent licensing for the Free Edition is automatically assigned to each user account. Additional workgroups containing products that are owned by organizations are linked to authorized user accounts by workgroup administrators.
Each workgroup owned by an organization is normally managed by one or more workgroup administrators. The workgroup administrator is a designated member of the organization who manages access to the workgroup and can also assign workgroup administrator privileges.
For detailed information on managing a workgroup, please refer to the MyCentre User Manuals in the PSCAD Knowledge Base.
