Virtual Groups
 

Virtual Groups are an extension of the conventional Groups used by FCS .

 

Virtual Groups allow multiple groups to be combined to one single virtual group.

This way the system can ensure, that only Users, that are members of all the groups, that are part of this virtual group, have access to a particular fact.

 

Explanation by way of Example:

 

A platform contains two groups:

Group A and Group B.

 

the same platform also has three users:

User X, User Y and User Z.

 

User X is a member of Group A.

User Y is a member of Group B

 

and

 

User Z is a member of Group A and Group B.

 

A fact is published on this platform. But read permissions are only granted to a virtual group A+B consisting of Group A and Group B.

From the three users only User Z will be able to see the fact, since the other two users are only member of one of the groups, that are part of the Virtual group, each.

 

Creating a Virtual Group:

 

  • To create a virtual group click on the "Berechtigungen"(Permissions) Symbol in the top right corner of the create or edit form.
