Restricting a web user's access to the Directory

TIM Plus allows you to restrict a web user's access to specific parts of the Directory. To do so, select from the drop-down list the site and/or the group you want the user to be allowed to access. If this is left at the default setting, the web user will be allowed to access all areas of the Directory.
