Use this system option to choose whether to use the primary email address in co_customer.cst_eml_address_dn as the username, or use the web login value stored in co_customer.cst_web_login as the username for authorization to log into eWeb. This system option also affects the Web Login form in iWeb that is accessed from the Individual and Organization Profile pages. If the option value is set to true, then the web login field is invisible because it is not used. If the option value is set to false then the web login field is visible and editable.
Additionally, this affects the xWeb: WebLogin method in the same way as the eWeb login page. When the option is true, the WebLogin method uses the primary email address in co_customer.cst_eml_address_dn to compare with the value passed as the userLoginPlain. If the option is false, the WebLogin method will uses the web login value stored in co_customer.cst_web_login.
The default for this option is true (selected check box) .
