• Both Certificate and UN/PW authentication are supported. By default, Central Coding uses Certificate Authentication, but at certain times UN/PW Authentication is needed when the Discrepancy interface needs to exchange certain data with Central Coding and also with another external system.
• In order for UN/PW Authentication to function, the InForm user configured in Central Coding must be an active InForm user. Any issues with the user need to be addressed in InForm.
