To make it easier to create multiple users with the same scope, Abiquo tenants will now have a default scope. When you create an enterprise it is impossible to have previously created a scope containing that enterprise. So Abiquo manages this situation by adding a new enterprise to the administrator’s scope and assigning that scope as the default for the enterprise. The administrator can later edit the enterprise and change the default scope depending on their own scope.
In the dialog to create a user, Abiquo displays the enterprise’s default scope as the first element in the dropdown list. An administrator with a global scope can assign any scope. Another administrator can assign their own scope, the enterprise’s default scope, or a lower scope in their scope hierarchy.
The administrator cannot delete a scope if it is the default for an enterprise.
...
An administrator with scope privileges and the “Allow user to switch enterprises” privilegeprivilege can create a hierarchy by assigning a parent scope to any scope except an unlimited scope. (An unlimited scope is the Global scope or a Use all enterprises or Use all datacenters scope).

- Own scope
- Enterprise default scope
- Child scopes beneath their scope in the hierarchy
...
The following diagram shows an example of a scope hierarchy.
