'''Recipient:''' Here you can select the person to be authorized. The field is pre-filled with the currently logged user. You can select another person from the district for which you are registered as a representative. 

'''Reason:''' Please provide a (short) reason. This is used for documentation in DIPS and is also displayed to users who receive a request to approve the application. 

'''Directory:''' Here you select the directories for which the recipient should receive permission. The selection is made by first clicking on the (+) symbol in front of “Project directories” or “Group directories” and then opening the directory tree of the desired root directory using the (+) symbols. 

You will see the rights set up by placing a checkmark in the appropriate place. An empty checkbox is displayed wherever rights can be requested. Tick the empty checkbox to specify the desired permissions (“Read” column for read permission, “Change” column for change permission, also known as “write permission”).
