Manage User Location

This page is accessed via Configuration and Administration > User Management > User Manager > Actions > User Management > Utilities > Manage User Location.

This action provides a way to associate a user with a location. You can then setup a VPD external predicate to use this information for restricting visibility to objects such as orders and shipments. It allows you to setup a predicate that looks like this:

order_release.source_location_gid in 
   ( select value from user_appdata 
     where gl_user_gid = SYS_CONTEXT('gl_user_ctx', 'gl_user_gid') 
     and key = 'USER_LOCATION' )

This restricts the logged in user to only see order releases where the source location is assigned to them. This capability is not enabled by default. You need to implement an external predicate like the one above to make use of this functionality.

This is also used as the default location for gatehouse events.
