Regions

A region in the RTA system is made up of a group of facilities. For example, if your company has multiple shops located in various cities and you want a manager to have access to all facilities under his control (in his region).
To use regions and multiple facilities, set the "Use Multiple Facility" switch in Main System Parameters (SSM, switch 26) to YES.
You can restrict region and facility access by using the System Security feature (SUM). Once implemented, users can be set up with rights allowing access to one facility, a group of facilities in their region(s), or all facilities.
