Attribute Groups

Multiple Attributes may be grouped together using Attribute Groups. Once Attributes are in an Attribute Group, a user can select which Groups are displayed in the Patrons or Facilities modules. An Attribute can be added to more than one Attribute Group.

Core Attributes cannot be assigned to an Attribute Group. Core Attributes are used by ResCenter to store Patron and Facility information; Core Attributes include Patron Attributes such as Last Name and ID Number and Facility Attributes such as Name and In-Service. Viewing or editing an Attribute via the Attributes Setup page indicates if the Attribute is a Core Attribute.

Note: For ResCenter users to have access to the Attribute Groups page, they must have access to the Administration.Attribute User Roles Permission. Refer to the Security Setup section for information about configuring User Roles.
