Employees authorized to add and edit employees global config parameter

Hello Experts,


I have attempted to customize a global config parameter in Web Designer for 'Employees authorized to add and edit employees', by default it is an empty string and I have set it to a simple query:

"uid_person in (select UID_Person
                from person
                where Lower(CustomProperty09) = 'staff' Or Lower(CustomProperty09) = 'faculty')"

based on my requirement where any employee in the organization should be able to request to create an account through Web Portal.

However, my custom query doesn't seem to have any effect, even if I just limit it to one specific person and limit it by PersonnelNumber. It seems to have some kind of hard coded behavior to where as long as logged in person is either a manager or department manager they can add user accounts.

My question is has anyone figured out a way to change it, do I need to modify something else in conjunction with a query I am already modifying. I am just confused what is the purpose of this config parameter if it is truly a hard coded behavior in Web Designer?

Thanks,

Sergei Shvets

    Sorry didn't mean to hit post just yet, I have created a copy of VI_Employee_Overview and found under Configuration -> Employees -> VI_Employee_Person_ManagerCondition which seems to be what I need, but I am not seeing where I can enter my query, sorry I am really bad in Web Designer, do you remember by chance where exactly you had to go to modify the query in that module?


    Also, just to note, I have a custom query for employees that can be edited parameter as well, and that one seems to be working.

    Thanks,
