5.15. Defining authorization groups for locker users
A locker user can be assigned to multiple authorization groups. In order to use a specific locker, the locker user must be assigned to an authorization group that grants access to this locker. When a locker user attempts to lock a free locker or when an operator assigns a personal locker to a locker user, eLoxx one checks whether the user is assigned to any authorization groups that grant access to this locker before denying or granting the request.
Open the "Authorization groups" page.
↪ All defined authorization groups are displayed.
Click on "Create".
↪ The following window opens.
Select the type of authorization group. When an authorization group is set as a device-wide group, all locker groups of the GC7 controller can be accessed. Alternatively, select "Local authorization group" to restrict access to a specific locker group or groups.
↪ The following window is displayed.
Enter a name for the authorization group, e.g., Male locker room.
If desired, enable the “Use this group as default group” option. When an authorization group is set as a default group, every new locker user added to the system is automatically assigned to this authorization group. Multiple authorization groups can be set as the default group at the same time.
Click on "Next Step".
↪ The following window is displayed.
Select the locker groups that the members of the authorization group are allowed to use. To do so, click on the “Locker group” field to open the locker group selection window. Additional locker groups can be added via the “Add locker group” button.
If you want to include all subgroups of the main locker group in the authorization group, enable the “Subgroups included” option.
For each locker mode of the locker group, select the number of lockers that the members of the authorization group are allowed to use. For example, if 3 is entered in the “Free locker” field, the users assigned to this authorization group can occupy up to 3 lockers in free locker mode simultaneously. The default values for allowed lockers per mode is 0.
Optional step: Select the “Add group locker limits” setting to define a total locker limit for all locker groups assigned to this authorization group.
Example:
In the “Employee” authorization group, employees are allowed to have 1 free locker in the locker group "Male changing room" and 1 free locker in the group "Female changing room". A total locker limit of 1 free locker is set for the authorization group.
These settings allow the employees to occupy either one free locker in the male changing room or one free locker in the female changing room.
