Dear support,

is there more documentation on the branches module than this https://documentation.galaktika-soft.com/xafari/doc_frlrfXafariBCBranchesBranchClassTopic_props-- and this https://documentation.galaktika-soft.com/xafari/doc_branches?

E.g., I wanted to find out what the 'IsMaster' property of the Branch class is supposed to do. Where can I find more documentation? Also, I couldn't find information on how to implement / configure data that is shared between branches.

Best regards
Bernd

Hello Bernd!

This is all the documentation for the branch.
Also, in addition you can see in the ticket How to implement filtering of records per Branch? .

'IsMaster':
Each branch has its own permission. The Permisiion value may be "Read" or "Write".
A user who logs into a branch with write permission can only record under that particular branch.
If the property 'IsMaster' set to true, then this “master” branch can write to all branches that are writable.

how to implement / configure data that is shared between branches:
there is no such
there are only branch types and types that are visible to everyone

Feel free to contact us if you need further assistance or have additional questions.

Hello Mariya,

thank you for your answer. I just want to make sure that I understand it correctly.

You wrote: "If the property 'IsMaster' set to true, then this “master” branch can write to all branches that are writable."
Here is an excerpt from your documentation:
------------------------------------------------
Read Modes

Read Mode option is relevant for users who will have access to several branches. There are two values: Available branches and Current branch.

Current branch mode: in this mode, the User sees only the objects of the Branch at which he is logged on, as well as shared data.
Available branches mode: in this mode, the User can see all the available Branches and shared data. If the User has Write Permissions to a specific Branch, then he or she can edit the data only if it is current Branch.
------------------------------------------------

Do you mean that if the read mode is 'Avalable branches' and the user is logged in on a 'master' branch, that the user can also write data from a different branch?
If this is correct then I think it would be good to add it to the documentation that I mentioned above, because the doc above specifically says "can edit the data only if it is current Branch".
