Linking product definitions to user groups
You can link product definitions to a user group. This allows you to specify which products will be accessible to a user group.
IMPORTANT
| How product definitions work: |
• By default, no user group is assigned to a product definition. In general, this means that all user groups can access all available products. However, when using
OpenID connect authentication, this does not apply to WebDAV product definitions. Here, you must explicitely link a user (group) to a WebDAV product definition, or access to the WebDAV location is denied!
• If there is one product linked to a user group (or vice versa) then the user group will not have access to other Planon products.
• Ensure that you do not exclude yourself from the application! Always make sure that Planon supervisors have access to all products.
• To better understand the consequences of linking user groups to product definitions (or vice versa), please read the article about
How product definitions work.
| In order to start the Planon application , it is mandatory to add the PSS2 product definition along with the PPWeb product definition to the selected user group. |
Procedure
1. On the User groups selection level, select a user group to which you want to link products.
2. On the action menu, click Product definitions.
The Product definitions dialog box appears.
3. Select one or more products from the Available list and move them to In use.
For example, select PSS2 in the Available list and click the right arrow to move it to In use.

The user group is linked to the selected product(s). The users of this user group can access the linked product(s).
