User type

TeamCal Pro supports several user types granting different rights in viewing and editing data. However, what rights these user types have firstly depends on the global setting "public_mode" and "registered_mode". If "registered_mode" is set to "view_own" only the Administrator or Group Manager can edit data, none of the other users can.

User type	Description
Regular user	This user is a regular user. He can be a simple member or a manager of a group.
Director	Same as a regular user but this user type can view all calendars even if "authorization_mode" is set to disable this right. He can use the message center. It is meant to be a viewing account from a directors point of view.
Administrator	This user type can view all calendars. He can use the message center. He can edit all calendars and profiles. Additionally the administrator can edit the month templates, change holiday types and absence types. He can also add and edit the groups and users.
Template user	Template users offer a way to set absences for a whole group in one shot. All absences set for a template user are also applied to all other users of the same group(s) that the template user is assigned to. This can either be a regular user (real person in your group) or a dummy user that can also be hidden from display. Read more...

Note: "Manager" is not a user type. Managers are regular users with additional rights when they are set as group manager.

User status

TeamCal Pro currently supports the following user status:

User status	Description
Account locked	Checking this box will lock the account. He cannot log in until it is unchecked by an administrator.
Login On Hold	This user had too many bad login attempts. His login is on hold for the grace period (default 120 seconds). You can force the login on hold process by checking this box or cancel it before the grace time is over by unchecking it.
Hide user in calendar	This switch enables the administrator to exclude a user from being displayed in the calendar. None of the user data is deleted or altered. He is just not displayed in the calendar view.
