[phpGroupWare-developers] Automated user handling based on organizational roles.

[Sigurd Nes]

Hi all,

In Bergen Kommune we use phpgw as Facilities Management- / Booking system.

We want to automate the userhandling as much as possible - and one idea is to 
use the Addressbook to help us.

All employees (about 3000) has a relation to an organization - and this 
relation is described by a role. Some employees has several roles/relations.

It should be doable to define rules to define users and acl-rights based on 
employee/role/relation/organization.

This information is provided from a central system collecting data from several 
sources.

To make this work - we (possible) need to redefine the relation 
phpgw_contact_org_person to allow multiple relations per org/person - and to 
extend the relation with (custom) attributes.

Any thoughts ?


Regards

Sigurd
