When contextual access is set on a certain level in the hierarchy, the setting will also include all underlying sub-properties and sub-areas.

To use contextual access to properties, Module settings must switch this setting on> Master Data > Properties and areas.

Contextual access groups

There are three access right groups that can be set in the context of a property:

• View areas and properties

  • If access to the property or area is set in this group's context, the user can only view the information on the property or area.

  • The user can also make objects, such as requests, reservations, and purchase orders, etc., for this property or area.

• Edit properties and areas

  • In addition to rights granted by the group “View areas and properties,” the user can edit the information about the property or area.

• Reservation coordinator

  • If the reservation coordinator group is added in the context of a property or area, access to the reservations is limited to those relevant to this property or area. This also applies to the reservation calendar.

1. Via the instance page of the property or area

When contextual access to properties has been activated in the environment, there will be a new tab, “Authorized users,” on the instance page of a property or area. The list of users with contextual access to a particular property or area can be managed via this tab.

To add a new user to this list:

1. Navigate to a property or area;

2. Click on the “Authorized” users tab;
