This is Channels

With Channels, it is very easy to customize CET Designer. It is a web interface that lets the customer’s Supervisor themselves decide what their users will see in the program. If a Supervisor then applies a certain Channel to a user, this controls what they have access to in the Extension.

The customer decides together with our programmer what channels are right for them. The programmer will then add the channels through MyConfigura. When added, the channels will show up on the Supervisor page in MyConfigura.

How it Works

Think of the Extensions as a container. Within the container, there are a lot of features and products. Every feature or product can be a channel, which means that the Supervisor can grant access to a specific channel or group of channels for different users or user groups.

The Supervisor can assign channels to different users through drag and drop and the users will immediately get the updates in the program. To make it even easier for the Supervisor, he/she can create predefined filters with multiple channels and assign these to one or several email addresses or domain names.
