Restriction Groups

Updated 3 months ago by Cole

Introduction

Restriction groups give you the ability to determine specific levels of access that an Agent user has to groups of loans. Restriction groups are different than search restrictions, but they work together to control Agent-User loan access. Here is a breakdown of restriction groups:

  • Restriction groups control the permission level within a loan. While search restrictions control the search results on the Loan Manager, restriction groups control the permissions a user has, if any, within a loan account.
  • Restriction groups are based on rules.  If a loan account qualifies for the rule (rule evaluates to TRUE), then the permission level granted to that restriction group will apply.
  • Restriction groups are created at the company level, Agent Users can be associated with none, one, or any number of restriction groups.

In this article, we explain restriction groups, but tools such as Roles, Shortcuts, Views are also worth learning about if you'd like greater control over how your personnel interact with loans and the software.

How To Create a Restriction Group

To create a restriction group, start by navigating to Settings > Company > Access > Restriction Groups inside your company’s account. Here, you can view, edit, and delete restriction groups settings.

To create a new restriction group, click 'Add'.

The top portion of this page is where you can enter the basic information about the restriction group. The bottom section is where you enter the rules that actually defines loan access permissions for the group.

The options in the top section include the following:

Click 'Edit' to edit the agent user data. Then, click 'Restriction Groups' to assign restriction groups to the agent users.

To assign a new restriction group, click the playlist_add_check icon. Then, choose the restriction group(s) you want to add from the available options.

You can select multiple restriction groups to assign to the user.
