[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Problem registering workstations

[Turner, Jennifer M]

Hi Vicki, 

I'm glad you got your issue resolved.  For future reference, since others will likely experience this issue (and because I'd already grabbed these screenshots), here's a brief guide to adding workstations:

Access the User Permission Editor either from a staff person's account (user_perm_editor.jpg) or through the Admin Menu's User Permission Editor.

Working locations are located above the permissions list (working_locs.jpg).  Tip: if you add working locations, do not also edit permissions during the same "save" attempt.  Changes will not stick if both working locations and permissions are edited at the same time.  

The attached screenshots are from 2.0.2, but the process is the same in 1.6.x.x.

I'm sending this too the DIG list as well, since I don't think this is well documented.  It could maybe be linked here: http://docs.evergreen-ils.org/1.6/draft/html/staffclientinstallation-running-staffclient.html#staffclientinstallation-workstationnames although other places would be appropriate, too.  

Jenny (PALS)

No we didn't.  When I put in the checks the problem was solved.  Thank you.
