Login to TIBCO MDM as the super user, tadmin.
Click
Administration > All Company Profiles. This opens the All Company Profiles screen.
Click

Specify the
Name of the company (MyCompany in this example). This is the name that will be specified in the Company Name field on the Login screen. You can modify the Company Name later.
Note: You can specify the company name in mixed case. However, when the user logs on to the application the company name is matched without case sensitivity.
Specify an
Internal Name (such as CorpA). The internal name is used to create a directory; it should contain only English characters and must follow the directory naming conventions of the operating system on which the application is installed. This name is for internal reference only and cannot be modified. The internal names that are reserved are: TIBCOCIM, TIBCO, VELOSEL, STANDARD, 1SYNC, 1SYNCTEST, VTEST, WWRE.
Note: You must use ASCII characters for company internal names. If these names include non-ASCII characters, copying the files from Windows to UNIX or Linux and vice versa may result in corruption of filenames.

Verify whether the company has been successfully created by ensuring that the name is displayed on the
