C.2.2 Mapping a User to an Organization

If a user is mapped to an organization indicating that it is the line organization for the user and if there exists any child organization for that line organization, then those organizations are implicitly mapped to the user as a business organization.

If the same organization is already mapped as the business organization, then the child of the organizations should not be mapped to the user implicitly by the system.

If an organization is implicitly mapped to the user based on line organization association, the user can still be unmapped from that organization if there is a need to limit them from seeing the organization. The organization still shows (I) in the Organization list to show that the organization is a child of the line organization. But the fact that it is not selected will prevent the user from being mapped to it.

The following rules apply:

• Users can have only one organization as the line organization.
• A child organization can have only one parent organization

To map organizations, follow these steps:

1. Select a user from the Select User drop-down list.
2. Select the line organization or organizations you want to map the user to from the Line Organization drop-down list.

   Note:

   If the user is associated with both line and business organizations, then the business organizations associated to the Line Organization must be implicitly mapped and display the organizations as well.
   The system visually distinguishes the Implicit (I), which is the system determination based on line organization and Explicit (E), which was manually added by the user mapping, of business organizations. The system displays either I or E in the brackets to indicate that the grid displays two different column, one for Implicit and the other one for Explicit mapping.
