Question

What is the difference between an Approver Group and Event Scheduler Group?

Answer

An Approver Group can approve event, room and/or resources requests. All requests are sent to the appropriate Approver Group and a request entry shows up on the Approver’s Notification List. Please note that you may have more than one user in an Approver Group but only one of them needs to approve the request.

Event Scheduler Group is a user security configuration. It allows certain event personnel to have visibility into each other’s event records. It provides event schedulers access to records created or approved by other event schedulers. This allows the event users to manage not only the events created by themselves but also events created by other users that are members of their group.

Being part of an event scheduling group does not give the user permission to approve events. They will have to be part of an approver group to be able to approve events.
