Introduction
Sunny Portal is an Internet portal which enables you to monitor and configure systems and to visualize system data.
In order to use Sunny Portal, you will need an SMA product that can record your system data and send it to Sunny Portal. Depending on the SMA product that sends the data, various functions are available in Sunny Portal.
The user interface of the SMA product (e.g. SMA Data Manager) and the user interface of Sunny Portal are uniform.
The number of functions and menus depends on whether you are on the local user interface of the product or in Sunny Portal.

In Sunny Portal, users have different user rights. The user rights determine which functions are available to the user in a system. Functions depending on user rights might not be shown due to missing authorization. The user account that was used to register a system gets administrator rights. The scope of functions can be changed by means of updates and purchase of additional licenses. The following user rights are available:
