Supervisor Logon

Depending on your installation, Symphony can be configured to allow Supervisor Logons. This feature allows two users to log on simultaneously in Symphony on the same PC, granting them higher user privileges than they normally have on an individual basis. For example, users who are members of the Symphony Users Group may have insufficient privileges to export video. But if they log on concurrently together in Supervisor mode they have sufficient privileges to do so.

       You must create a new virtual Supervisor User and a new User Group (for example, Power Users) which this user will be a member of. The new User Group should have greater privileges than the Symphony User Group.

       You cannot modify an existing user to have these supervisor privileges. Essentially, this virtual Supervisor User name will work like a key to open (allow) certain privileges for two users logging on at the same time.
