For MIDAS v4.29, we’re expanding the range of options available to administrators when it comes to assigning user permissions.
MIDAS already includes an extensive range of permissions which can be assigned on a per-user basis. One of these permissions is the “Can Make Bookings” permission. This setting controls whether a given user account can make bookings, or just booking “requests”, or neither.
Following customer feedback, we’re adding a couple of additional options to this particular user permission.
Now administrators can restrict user accounts to only be able to book/request for themselves.
Prior to this, a user with permissions to make bookings/requests could select a client on their Add Bookings screen that the booking or request was to be for.
Now, if the “Can Make Bookings” permission is set to “Yes (For self only)”, the user will only be able to make bookings for themselves. They will not be able to make bookings for any arbitrary client in the system.
Similarly, the “Requests Only (For self only)” option works the same, but only allows the user to make booking requests for themselves.
