Pools

Warning

Pools feature is not included in Talk2m light plan.

The Pools window lists the pools which exist on the Talk2m account.

A pool is a group of Ewons. Each User Group can be configured to have specific access rights to one or several Ewon pools.

Each Ewon will be part of one or more Ewon Pools.

Important

You'll only be able to see the Pools to which you were granted access rights..

With an Administrator user group, you have access rights to display all Ewon Pools this Ewon belongs to.

To add a pool into the list, use the Add button, as explained in the Add a pool section.

  • You can customize the way the information is displayed inside the pool list.

  • Click a column name to sort the pools by that column or right click to add or remove columns.
