Once you have access to SSMS, connect to the same Server that you use with TAD.

Once connected, expand Security → Logins.

If you only see two accounts, like the image below, then you don't have the correct permissions.

Submit a support ticket to Trimble with the subject: "Please assign the securityadmin server role to SQL Account �CODE0�."

If you see a long list of accounts, then you should have the correct permissions.

Double-click on the SQL Account that needs a password change.
