Tool Search: District Assignments
The District Assignments tab contains a series of checkboxes that determine, in addition to the appropriate tool rights, what access a user has to certain areas of the product. This tab also contains fields that report data within SIF.
The following table defines what tools are affected when these checkboxes are selected (and what subsequent tool rights should be assigned).
These checkboxes are used by other areas of the product (e.g., My Data, Emergency Messenger, Ad hoc Reporting) to differentiate between types of staff members.
In addition to the selections made on the District Assignment tab, appropriate tool rights need to be assigned.
