The accreditor can modify this automatic behavior if necessary using the authorization property:
- Yes: gives the authorization that is not given automatically

These authorizations are given in the unit where the person is accredited, which is why they are attached to the accreditation, for example the presence in the mailing list of the unit, or the right to have storage space in the unit, etc.
