Directory Block Points Who can reach out and touch someone? Block points are placed on a branch to limit what part of the directory can be seen by users in that branch. Normally, users can view that part of the directory up to a branch that has a block point. Users cannot see other branches beyond that point. One can be assigned to another position so that cumulative permissions provide that user with a view of whatever part of the directory (or all of it) you wish that user to see. Block points are defined in the directory by a TeamLink Center Administrator. Block point limitations also restrict who one can invite to an eMeeting since you can only invite those you have permission to "see. So the fictitious user, Jessica Conseco, assigned to the Satellites R Us Manager position in this branch can only view this part of the directory. The branch Satellites R Us, Inc. has a block point.
