Contrast between “To all locations” Staff & “By Branch” Staff

In the “Location Assignment” field (located in the table above), you could select “To all locations” or “By Branch” based on the actual situation. The two types of staff have different accesses to locations & branches and different permissions for operations like creating a new staff, editing an existing staff and viewing the staff list.

To all locations Staff

By Branch Staff

  • Has no data limitation.

    The staff can see all data scope (all staff on the staff list & all branches on the branch list & all locations on the location list) of the vendor company.

  • Has data limitation.

    The staff can only handle the data of their own branches. They cannot see “To all locations” staff on the staff list.

  • Can see “Location Assignment” field when creating a new staff.

    “To all locations” staff can create both “To all locations” staff and “By Branch” staff. All branches of the vendor company will be listed on the creating user web page.

  • Cannot see “Location Assignment” field when creating a new staff.

    “By Branch” staff can only see the “Branch” field and their own branches on the creating user web page, which means they can only create another “By Branch” staff.

  • Can edit all types of staff.

    “To all locations” staff can see the “Location Assignment” field when editing both “To all locations” staff and “By Branch” staff and can see all branches of the vendor company in the “Branch” field with no limitation.

  • Can edit the staff whose branches are covered.

    “By Branch” staff can edit another staff only if the branches of this staff are all covered by the editor.
