Allowed locations

Several objects such as jobs, printers, and input devices have a Location property. The Allowed locations property lets you specify which locations the members of a group can access. The setting affects which objects the users belonging to a certain group can access in the user interface. The user can select which location to use to filter the user interface using the Locations to show property.

Values:

The list of locations available in the system.

Default
None

Database name
Group.LocationSettings

Usage notes:

  • Documents are not associated with a specific location. Restricting group members to specific locations does not prevent them from displaying documents included in jobs that are associated with other locations.
  • Changes to the Allowed locations property for a group take effect the next time users who are members of that group log in.
  • Locations set for a group are inherited by all users in the group. If a user added to the group has access to other locations, the group locations are added to the existing locations.
