Group FAQs

What is a group?

A group associates users with others in similar roles for a study. To perform certain activities, users have to be granted certain rights, and be a member of a group associated with that activity.

What is an item group?

An item group is a set of items that you group together so that you can assign a display override to them.

This designation overrides the rights conveyed by membership in the rights group and also overrides the display properties of the items in the group.
