  • Key Concepts: 
    Geolocation is a feature of the SAP LOD-EMS Entitlement Management System (EMS) that allows users to define and manage access rights based on geographical location. It enables users to restrict access to certain areas or countries, or to grant access to specific locations. 
    
    How to use it: 
    To use geolocation in the EMS, users must first define the geographical areas they wish to restrict or grant access to. This can be done by entering the coordinates of the desired area, or by selecting a predefined area from a map. Once the areas have been defined, users can then assign access rights to those areas. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When defining geographical areas, it is important to ensure that the coordinates are accurate and up-to-date. Additionally, it is important to remember that geolocation is only one part of the EMS and should be used in conjunction with other features such as user roles and permissions.
