Filtering Criteria
Additional filtering criteria can be added by the icon. These filters will restrict the access to the recorded conversations further above the setting selected at the Scope setting.
Filtering Criteria Relationship Across RolesWhen multiple roles are assigned to the same user, and more than one role has filtering criteria, then this setting determines whether AND or OR logic will be used between the filters depending to separate roles.

Group Supervisor Access Scope

These permissions are only effective for Group Supervisors. The system records group membership history and the Group Supervisors can access conversations of the Group Members according to the history by default. This means that if a Member was added to the Group later than the Group Supervisor, then the Group Supervisor will be able to access their conversations only from the time the Member was added to the Group. The Group Supervisor Access Scope permissions can be used to change this behavior.

All of these permissions have three possible values:

  • According to Server Configuration (default)
  • Yes
  • No

The default server configuration settings can be changed in the Server Configuration under Web Application / Conversation Access Scope.

Access All Conversations of Current Members

If set to Yes, then the Group Supervisors can access all conversations of the currently active members regardless of when they were added to the group.
Default: No.

Access Previous Conversations of Removed Members

If set to No, then the Group Supervisors will not be able to access the previous conversations of the members that have been already removed from the group.
Default: Yes.

Access Previous Conversations After Lost Supervisory StatusIf set to No, then the former Group Supervisor will not be able to access the previous conversations of the Group Members after lost the Supervisory status.
Default: Yes.
