Solved changes

Departments are not shown in Personnel file Authorization module (2184857)

Subject: The same department within different administrations is not shown everywhere.

Change

In some situations, users can have rights to a specific department, while this department does not seem to be checked in the authorization module. In these situations, it appears that the same department - that is, with exactly the same name and department code - is linked to two different administration numbers. However, the authorization module only shows the active or last known department by default, so the department with the checkmark is not visible. If the user has been granted rights to the department that is not shown in the past, there is no possibility to revoke these rights.

Solution

The problem is usually related to departments used in the past by employees who are now out of service. This means that the relevant departments have become inactive, but the relevant employees are still present in the Personnel File.

In this release, a change was made to the Authorize departments tab to include also these inactive departments with the same department code. To facilitate this, a new column AdministrationId was added.

Example before the change

Example after the change

As of this release the column AdministrationId is shown in the result list and departments with the same department code and description that are or have been linked to a different administration IDs will be shown.

In this example, it appears that the user still has rights to the Sales & Marketing department that was once linked to administration number 577. Because the department code has remained the same, the user will therefore also see all employees who are currently linked to this department.

Your action

This change does not require any actions. If there are multiple departments with the same department code linked to different administration numbers, they will automatically be shown in the list.
