Table 1. Special permissions
Special Permission	Description
Locate Users or Group Members	Grants permission to issue commands such as “Where is Melissa Schaefer?” to find the physical location of a user or group member. This feature is useful only if location names have been defined and access points have been assigned to locations. See Working with Locations. This permission is granted by default to all the members in the Everyone group configured for each site.
Have VIP Status	Grants permission to complete a call even when users are blocking calls or have placed their badges in Do Not Disturb mode. The Genie tells a VIP caller that a person is not accepting calls and asks if the caller wants to break through. If the answer is “Yes,” the call is connected. If the answer is “No,” the call is treated as an unanswered call.
Block and Accept Calls	Grants permission to issue the Block and Accept voice commands to perform selective call screening. Beginning users who are granted this permission may unintentionally block calls when all they need is temporary use of the DND button. You should enable these commands for advanced users only. This permission does not affect the ability to block calls through the User Console.
Access Vocera Anywhere Using Caller ID	Grants permission to call the Vocera hunt number from a phone and access the Genie using a caller ID associated with the phone. The caller's ID is matched against a user's desk phone number or cell phone number in the Vocera database.
Add/Edit/Delete Reminders	Grants permission to add, edit, or delete reminders for members of a specific group.
Add/Edit/Delete Reminders to Everyone	Grants permission to add, edit, or delete reminders for Everyone group and Everyone Everywhere group.
Code Lavender	Grants permission to start (live broadcast) or schedule a Code Lavender call for a specific group. Members who schedule a Code Lavender event can cancel a scheduled Code Lavender event.
Code Lavender for Everyone	Grants permission to start (live broadcast) or schedule a Code Lavender call for Everyone group and Everyone Everywhere group. Members who schedule a Code Lavender event can cancel a scheduled Code Lavender event.
