Thanks for following up on this!  Now I need to find out from the SITKA folks 
how they modified the settings - because that's what we want.  :)

I am working with a clean install for the moment, so if I run across any other 
discrepancies, I'll pass those along.

Jenny,

This is an error with the DIG documentation. I grabbed the information from the 
SITKA documentation which had their customized settings and not the default 
out-of-the-box settings. I did not have a clean database to test against.

There may be other discrepancies so I will remove the table at: 
http://docs.evergreen-ils.org/1.6/draft/html/admin-staff_accounts.html until I 
can verify the out of the box settings.

Thanks for lbringing this to our attention.

Robert

Subject: [OPEN-ILS-DOCUMENTATION] Documentation issue or client set-up issue? 
Local Sys Admin permissions

Hello DIG'ers,

I am not sure if an issue I'm having with testing documentation is an issue 
with the documentation itself or with how the default/non-customized staff 
client is set up, but thought I would ask the smaller list first...

The documentation (I'm assuming SITKA-contributed, because it mirrors what is 
available on SITKA's site) mentions that Local System Administrators should be 
able to edit/create Group Penalty Thresholds for their organizations 
(http://docs.evergreen-ils.org/1.6/draft/html/lsa-group-penalty.html).  In my 
experience, the only login that is able to edit these is the "superadmin" or 
System Account Administrator.  When I attempt to create another admin user and 
give this user "Local System Administrator" permissions, he/she is unable to 
select a "Context Location" from the dropdown menu and, therefore, unable to 
create any Group Penalty Thresholds.

When I first encountered this issue, I was using a slightly customized set of 
permissions and figured that might be the issue.  However, I am now testing it 
using a fresh install with the default set of permissions and am still unable 
to perform certain administrative functions using anything by the 
super-administrator login (which we would like to NOT give out to our local 
library administrators).

I have similar issues with other administrative functions, but this is a good 
example of the problem.  What do we not have set correctly?  Or is there an 
error in the documentation?

Thanks for any insight - especially from the SITKA folks!

Jenny
