Mercantec Power Commerce™ is installed on a web server. You access Power Commerce through your local computer's browser.

Before logging into the web server, you must have the following information from your web administrator:

Your Power Commerce installation's URL address. For example:

http://<www.SP_domain.com>/<your_account_name>/SiteMgr/SiteMgr.html

Your Power Commerce user name
Your Power Commerce password

Why Power Commerce automatically logs you out

After sixty (60) minutes of server inactivity, the page expires. After you select a new option or command button, you receive error message 5008. You must log in again. This logout feature provides another layer of protection by preventing someone from changing your site while your computer is unattended.
