Granting privileges to staff
A common question is how to grant privileges (such as "Super Circulator" or "Super Cataloguer") to staff members. There are two major steps:
Granting permissions:
- In the staff client, retrieve the patron and click Edit.
- Scroll down to the Profile field. Do not change the Profile field'' Click Secondary Groups beside the field. A list of permission groups appears.
- Select the group to which you want to add the patron (for example, Super Circulators and click Add. Repeat for each group to which you want to add the patron.
- Click Save.
Granting privileges at a working location:
For staff to be able to log onto a workstation at a given working location (aka library) and perform any of the actions that require the permissions you granted via Secondary Groups, you need to grant them privileges at that working location.
- In the staff client, retrieve the patron and click Other -> User Permission Editor. The list of all working locations and privileges that you have the ability to grant access to loads.
- Check the box for each working location where the patron should have privileges.
- Click Save at the bottom of the User Permission Editor.
