Dedicated BI Account
The Dedicated BI Account is a Windows user account named NecBIAccount that is dedicated for the IIS websites installed with SEI Server.
When installing SEI Server, it is chosen by default because it makes it simpler for all customers to use that dedicated account instead of having to create their own custom account beforehand. In addition, it is created with a password that doesn’t expire and can solely be used for SEI, making it more specialized for the application.
Do not use "=" or ";" in any fields of the installer as it may cause an issue.
It has the same role as a custom account since it is also a Windows user account, but contrary to a custom account, this account is created by the SEI Server installer if it is requested during the installation.
If the NECBIAccount is created for the first time, restarting the server is necessary for Excel Add-in distribution to work.
