These programs provide a quick and easy way to document your existing system. Because all of the data are loaded into SENTRY's database, comprehensive reports are available. Additionally, These programs simplify most of the data entry tasks usually associated with setting up a new security system.

Complimentary to the programs which build the SENTRY database is a program to evaluate the consistency of usage in groups, users, and permissions.

The three selections in the Database Creation and Validation Menu are the first three steps you should take after installing SENTRY. The following sections provide detailed descriptions on how, when and why these programs are used.
