📄️ User account mapping
Account mapping allows authentication of a USoft account using the credentials of another account. For example, validation of a USoft application user named User1 using the password of an operating system user named User2. This has the advantage of reducing the number of passwords a user has to know. Typically, a set of USoft application accounts that serve different application roles might be authenticated by the password of one single account, optionally the password of the user's operating system account.
