September 28, 20178 yr Hello If you have the same name/passwords in the child files as you have logged in with in the master file, then FileMaker will use those same credentials to open the child files and won't ask you to login. Only if the child files do not have the same credentials will it ask you to log into each. This functionality has been there since early versions, and definitely works.

You then just enter accounts which are 'position based' such as: Salesman, Accountant etc.
September 29, 20178 yr This is also why you should have a good reason to separate a solution into individual files. If you don't, consolidating it into a single file with multiple tables would seem to be the simplest solution.
