Creating and Adding Members to a Group
Groups
are sets of users, sets of other groups, or both. Groups enable you
to more easily control security because you assign each group different
activity rights and access privileges.
To create a group you must have the following rights and privileges:
- Access Administration activity right
- Create Groups activity right
- At least Edit access to the parent folder (the folder that will
store the group)
- At least Select access to any groups to which you want to add
this group
- At least Select access to any users you want to add to the group
- Click Administration.
- Open the folder in which you want to store the group.
- In the Create Object drop-down list,
click Group.
- Under Parent Group Memberships,
specify the groups to which this group should be
a member:
- To make this group a member of another group, click Add
Group, in the Select Groups
dialog box, select the groups to which you want to add this group,
and click OK.
To remove a parent group, select it and click .
To select
or clear all of the group boxes, select or clear the box to the left
of Members.
- To toggle the order in which the groups are sorted, click Members.
- Under Group Members, specify the
members of this group:
If you want users and groups to be added to this group based
on user profile properties or group membership, set dynamic membership
rules. If you want members of this group to be able to access administration,
create objects, or perform other activities that require special rights,
assign activity rights to the group.
