It could be that 'single sign-on' is what I thought to be the term.
Thank you.

>Note re: Preboarding. Preboarding implies things that happen before boarding begins, but with airlines, preboarding is when people start boarding.

>>I agree with you as far as uniqueness and so on. I have an app that for many (20+) years has been set to use only a password. So the password is unique for each user. The user name is non-essential. I want to change this so I have to explain to the customers. I thought I heard the term 'Single-something' and 'Double-something'; so I would explain that we are changing from 'Single..' to 'Double...' But apparently I am mistaken and such terms do not exist. So I will simply have to describe.
>>Thank you.
