Example 27.1. Example: How to register a region role

An user can have specific action roles (sales representative, external orders, support engineer, etc) and acces roles (a region is a list of districts, defined according to the company's needs).

The first step is to add the new region role, following the above instructions (Muntenia, for example). Once the role is added, it can be defined by assigning tokens.

Besides the system's page titles, the token list also contains the list of districts and/or countries to manage the information on a geographic basis.

For example, the "Muntenia" role will be defined by the following tokens: Bucuresti, Arges, Braila, Buzau, Calarasi, Dambovita, Giurgiu, Ialomita, Ilfov, Prahova, Teleorman.

To assign a token, search it in the token list and edit its properties (third button, lower right) to include the new "Muntenia" role. Select the role from the "Available roles" list and add it to the "Selected roles" list, then save your changes.

After all the district tokens of the region have been edited, the role can be assigned to a user. Select the user in the user list and click the same edit button (third, lower right). Besides the personal details, you can see the list of available and assigend roles. Select the "Muntenia" role and save the changes.

The user will only have access to the clients registered in the "Muntenia" region (in the districts of this region).

[Important] Observation

The user may already have a more general role, like "All regions" or "Romania".
