Authentication
The Production Inspection Form system uses LDAP authentication to verify user credentials and manage access to the inspection forms.Logging In
To access the inspection system, you must first authenticate with your credentials.Navigate to the Login Page
Open your web browser and navigate to the inspection system URL. If you attempt to access the main form without being logged in, you’ll be automatically redirected to the login page.
Enter Your Credentials
The login form contains two required fields:
- Usuario (Username): Enter your LDAP username
- Contraseña (Password): Enter your LDAP password
Both fields are required. You cannot submit the form with empty credentials.
Click the Ingresar Button
Once you’ve entered your credentials, click the Ingresar (Login) button to submit the form.
Session Management
Once successfully authenticated, the system manages your session using browser localStorage.What Gets Stored
After a successful login, the following information is stored locally in your browser:- usuario_inspeccion: Your username/user ID
- usuario_nombre: Your display name
- redirect_after_login: The page you were trying to access before login (if applicable)
Session data is stored in your browser’s localStorage, which means it persists even if you close and reopen your browser tab. However, it’s specific to the browser and device you’re using.
Session Validation
Every time you access the inspection form, the system checks for the presence ofusuario_inspeccion in localStorage:
- If found: You’re granted access to the form
- If not found: You’re redirected to the login page
Logging Out
To end your session and log out of the system:Locate the Logout Button
In the top bar of the inspection form, you’ll see your username displayed with the text “Usuario: [your name]”
Security Considerations
LDAP Authentication
The system uses LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) authentication, which:- Validates credentials against your organization’s central directory
- Ensures consistent user management across systems
- Provides secure authentication without storing passwords locally
Session Security
While session data is stored in localStorage for convenience:Troubleshooting
Invalid Credentials Error
If you see “Credenciales inválidas”:- Verify you’re using the correct username (usuario)
- Check your password for typos
- Ensure Caps Lock is not enabled
- Contact your system administrator if the issue persists
Connection Errors
If you see “Error al iniciar sesión” (Login error):- Check your network connection
- Verify the LDAP server is accessible
- Try refreshing the page
- Contact IT support if the problem continues
Automatic Redirects
If you’re repeatedly redirected to the login page:- Check if your browser allows localStorage
- Ensure cookies and local data are not being blocked
- Try clearing your browser cache and logging in again
- Disable browser extensions that might interfere with localStorage
