English: User membership - hierarchical support



Every user can have membership to one or several organization units.

Organization units are used for organizing the users and content sharing. Instead of having to share a piece of content with each and every user within eg a faculty, a user can decide to share the content with all members of that organization unit (faculty). Contact Inspera Support to set up new organization units for your institution.
