The Temporary Access feature allows administrators to grant a user additional system access for a limited time. This is useful for temporary assignments, substitutions, or special tasks that require extra permissions.

Once the Temporary Role expires, the additional access is automatically removed. The user’s main role remains applied at all times, and no manual update is required from the administrator.

Required Permission
