LIMS Basics Users
Last updated: Apr 17, 2026
Vault users are managed by Vault Admins, and can be customized to perform various tasks throughout LIMS Basics.
User Types
Vault users are categorized into two (2) different user types:
- Domain Users: Users from your company’s domain, such as your peer employees. This is the most common type for new users.
- Cross-Domain Users: Users from external organizations, such as vendors or consultants, who can use their existing Veeva Vault credentials to access your company’s vault. Cross-Domain Users can log into any Vault they have access to using their existing home domain login credentials, or using SSO if it is enabled for your organization.
