The Permissions feature lets you give another Organisation a live view of all your products of a particular type in one step, instead of sharing products one at a time. You choose a Product Template (the product type), and the permissioned Organisation can then see every product you own that is based on that template, including the traceability Events behind those products. It shares your products associated with the template, not the Product Template definition itself.
Tip: Permissions is useful for giving a partner a scoped, live view. For example, a customer can let their bank see the live Events for one product type, without exposing any of their other products.
Open the Permissions tab
Open Settings from the account menu (top-right) and select the Permissions tab. It lists the Organisations you have granted permissions to, with their date ranges.
Grant a permission
To share your products of a type with another Organisation:
Click + Add Permission.
Select Organisation: choose the Organisation you are granting access to.
Under Search for Template Name, select one or more Product Templates (the product types to share).
Set the Date Range (Effective From and Expires on): only products created within these dates are shared.
Click Add to save.
The Organisation can then see all your products for the selected templates and dates, including their Events. The permission also covers products you create in future for those templates (within the date range). Edit or remove a permission later from its row on the Permissions list.
What it shares, and what it does not
A permission shares your products associated with the selected Product Template, and their traceability Events. It does not share the Product Template definition itself, that is governed only by the template's owner and its Public or Private flag.
Important: Private Events are never exposed by a permission. Only the products and their non-private Events become visible to the permissioned Organisation.
To make the Product Template itself visible in the catalogue (a separate thing), see What is a Product Template?
