Branch Agnosticism

By default, Orchestra is set up so that if a user is assigned a role that is branch agnostic, the user will see all branches, even if all the other assigned roles are branch aware.
So, for example, if the user has access to both the Counter Workstation (Branch aware) and the Central Operations Panel (Branch agnostic), the user will see all available Branches in the Counter Workstation.
If you want to change this default behavior, you need to set the branch_app variable to true/false for the used application(s), in the applications table, accordingly.
To find out which roles are branch agnostic, please see the User Management chapter in the Administrator’s Guide.
