Platform Transfers
Because Platform transfers can be done on the fly, no department is assigned to an individual ad hoc transfer. However, Platform transfers created and added to the system can have a department assigned to it. When a department user enters the Manage Platform Transfers page, Platform transfers assigned to the user’s department and Platform transfers assigned to the departments that this user can manage are listed.
A Platform transfer can be assigned to only one department in the system. The administrator can choose not to assign a department to the transfer, but this offers no special properties to the transfer. If a transfer is assigned to a particular department, it can only be administered by super administrators or users with FTAdminRight. Platform transfers do not have a visibility associated with them. Department administrators can access or view transfers of their departments and transfers of the department that they can manage. When users with FTTransferRights log in to perform a Platform transfer, they can see all the transfers that they are authorized to access.
