As long as you have a user account and access to the Internet you can login to Workbooks.  There are various options for logging in - you can login using your email address and a password or can use open id-based credentials. Currently we support logging in using OpenID and Google Apps.  (For more information on OpenID, click here.)

Logging in using your email address and Workbooks password

Navigate to either:

https://secure.workbooks.com

or

the homepage of our website, http://www.workbooks.com and click on Customer Login.

Both options will open a login screen as shown below:

Enter your email address and password and click Login, which will open the Workbooks Desktop.

You can change your password at any time (within Start > Preferences).  Remember though that it must conform to the password policy applied by your System Administrator (which controls how many characters are required, whether they're upper or lower case and so on).  Also, you cannot reuse a previous password.

Logging in using Google Apps

Navigate to either:

https://secure.workbooks.com

or

the homepage of our website, http://www.workbooks.com and click on Customer Login.

To login using your Google Apps credentials, click where you see 'Alternatively, click here to login using Google Apps'.  This will generate a screen prompting you to enter your Domain name (which is usually your company's web address without the 'www').  Then click Login, which will generate a screen asking if you want to allow access or not.

Alternatively, within Google Apps you can select the 'more' menu and choose Workbooks.

If you haven't used this Google Apps account to login to Workbooks before you'll be prompted for your email address and Workbooks password.  Once you've entered those your Google Apps ID is associated with your login and you won't need to enter your email address and password the next time you use Google Apps to login.

Logging in using OpenID

Firstly, login using your email address and Workbooks password and open your Preferences screen.  (Start > Preferences) and choose Third-Party Identities from the left-hand column.  Here you can click on the link provided to https://secure.workbooks.com/openid and enter your OpenID.  If you haven't used this OpenID to login to Workbooks before you'll be prompted for your email address and Workbooks password.  Once you've entered those, your OpenID is associated with your login and you won't need to enter your email address and password the next time you use OpenID to login.
