Organizational Structure
Members can be Associated with multiple Units/ Above Units
This setting allows you to select if you will be able to associate users with multiple (above) units. If multiple (above) units association isn't selected, then you'll only be able to move users from one (above) unit to another.
Should Parent-Child Optional Permissions be inherited?
This setting gives you the option to prevent the above unit managers from adopting the same permissions as the above units below them in the organizational structure. For example, if the Head of US doesn't have the reporting permission enabled, but the Head of New York does, with this setting you can either allow the Head of US to adopt the same permissions as the Head of New York or prevent them from getting them. This will define if the Head of US can access reporting data for the employees in New York or not.
Schoox Open Community
Schoox’s Open Community is a place where users can take courses from Schoox’s course marketplace on their own, build their personal portfolio of qualifications as well as connect and collaborate with other members. It’s a separate place that can be accessed through their same account.
If you enable this setting, members will have to agree on Schoox’s Terms of Use prior to accessing Schoox’s Open Community. If this setting is turned to no, users will not have access to the My Schoox tab (Schoox “X” icon), from the upper navigation menu.
