The information provided here is still preliminary and is constantly being added to.

Activate user in UCServer
To activate the ProCall App for Web for the users, go to the UCServer administration in the User administration area and grant the corresponding authorizations:
- global for all users
- for a user group
- for individual users
Additive authorization system
Please note the additive authorization system of ProCall Enterprise: A right given to a user (e.g. via a group) cannot be revoked via the authorization at another location (e.g. user).
For a preliminary test in connection with estos ProCall Enterprise version 8.3 (at least version 8.3.3 required, see ProCall App for Web – system requirements), the granting of a specific authorization is not required. The functionality of using estos ProCall App for Web is therefore still available without the explicit granting of an authorization.
