Try creating branch and center using a user at Head Office level, it seems like a Branch user is not able to view other branch which seems like a valid case to me, and if a Branch user is able to create another Branch then it seems like a condition we might want to avoid using correct roles and permissions.
BTW, if you think that a branch user should be able to create/view another branch is a valid case the you can log a feature request explaining the case. http://mifosforge.jira.com Udai On Sat, Oct 29, 2011 at 11:56 AM, Ed Cable <edca...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello all, > Stephen sent this question via IRC: > (7:19:08 PM) Stephen_: looking for some help on brand/center permissions in > 2.1.6 - Possibly simple user error. > (7:19:13 PM) Stephen_: http://screencast.com/t/K2AGUVWYms1 > Stephen has two branches set up underneath his head office - Sample Branch > Office and AAP Sunyani. > Stephen was trying to create a new center for Sample Branch Office but > wasn't presented with this branch as an option to create the center for. > Stephen - as you were suggesting, this is simply a problem of data scope. > The user you were logged in in as only had the data scope for the office > hierarchy of the APP Sunyani and a user hierarchy data scope of loan officer > so that was limited to only creating new centers for that one branch.
