==Overview==

User functionality can be limited to selected locations. If a user is limited in this manner, s/he is known as a location-restricted user. A location-restricted user can only see assets which are in the location(s) to which s/he has been given access, including assets at customers to whose servicing location the user has access.

==How it Works==

=== Website vs Handheld Access ===
How Location Restricted Users are controlled varied based on Website versus Handheld access.

From the editing an account from the '''Internal Users''' page:

'''Authorized Locations'''
-- This controls which locations a user is authorized to work from on the handheld device.

'''Location Specific User Role'''
-- This determines what Location Restricted Users are permitted to View, Add and Edit on the website. Again, this is set up and controlled through the [[User Access Control]] page

=== Restrictions and Limitations ===

Location Restricted Users can be configured so that if an asset is not currently at one of their authorized locations or associated customers, then they cannot see it. It is as if this barcode does not exist.

==Customizing it for You==

==Setting it Up==
Before Internal User accounts can be restricted to specific locations, there should be a Role set up via User Access Control for Location Restricted Users. Review the [[User_Access_Control]] page for information about how to set up the role.

Once a Location Restricted User role is in place, clients can assign Internal User accounts to specific locations. This is done through editing individual accounts through the '''Roles and Permissions''' section of the Edit Internal Users page.

When you select '''Specific Locations''' under '''Authorized Locations''', the new Location Specific Role will appear under the '''Roles and Permissions''' section.

+Sometimes you might have personnel who need access to either the TrackAbout website or mobile application but should not have access to all data in TrackAbout.  In these cases, a user's functionality can be limited to selected locations.
