This Help topic describes features that are available in XMap
Professional, XMap GIS Editor, and XMap GIS Enterprise.
Once you add users to a server, you can give them access to the databases that are
on that server. Once a user is added to a database, an administrator can assign the
user's role for using the database (for example, XMap User, XMap Edit, XMap
Checkout Creator, XMap Administrator, or XMap Owner). You can add or remove
individual users or a Windows Group.
