 Hello, you can use the "Deny" flag in the config file for each logbook.

 

Deny <function> = <user>

Example: Deny Edit = Gian

simply add as many deny functions as you would like. Its a bit of work if you have a lot of logbooks but its the easiest solution.

Hope that helps.

 

Elog Syntax guide is helpful for this stuff too.

 Thanks for help. It work's. 

 But I want to know if I can block a logbook from a user. For example I have a logbook named "Store". I want only users of the vendors have access to this log. How can I do it? 

I didn't find this in manual.

 The only way I find for this trouble is using the "Login user". But we have something best?

 I haven't found a specific way to block viewing a log book. 

I use the top groups settings to keep users in the logbooks they only need access to.

Example

Top Group = Logbook Group1, Logbook Group 2

Group Logbook Group 1 = Logbook1, Logbook2

Group Logbook Group 2 = Logbook3, Logbook4

Then only assign users for logbook1 and logbook2 that you wish to view those logbooks only. They would have to go to the specific top group url in order to view the logbooks.

Then you can go to http://elogurl/(top group)/

And essentially just have the users view the only logbooks they are assigned to.

I've been asked to export one of our logbooks to xls or csv. Doable?

Thanks,

Hi Scott,

yes, every user can export entries using the "find" command.
Just select the export format in the first line

Export to:  

 
Detect language » English
 
 
Detect language » English
 
 
Detect language » English
 
 
Detect language » English
 
 
Detect language » English
 

I often use the XML Format, but CSV is fine if you just want to import the entries to some spreadsheet program.

I was shocked to find out that this feature has not yet made it into the documentation?!? But it is that simple to use that there is not much to document.

There is even an "Import" command, to reimport entries from a file. But this is tricky to use: if you have fields of type date or datetime, then you have to convert those fields in the proper format.

Can ELog support different languages based on the logged on user?
