    • Managers can view the dashboard info and image gallery from their assigned photographers.

  2. Image-based assignment.

  • Images are tagged using a unique identifier in the file name or folder path to assign them to a manager.
  • This method is best when photographers are shared between managers.
  • Managers can view the dashboard info and gallery of images assigned to them.
