Adding users to user groups

The final stage of creating a new user group is the allocation of users, however, users can also be added to existing groups. The permissions associated with a user group are then applied to all the users in that group. The process involves picking the desired users from the list of users on the system.

To add a user to a user group:

1. In the Group security screen, highlight the user group to which you want to add users.

2. Click the User Allocation tab.

• If adding users to an existing group, the list of existing users is displayed. Otherwise, a blank tab is displayed ready for allocating users.

3. Click Add. The list of users on the system is displayed.

4. Highlight the desired user and click OK. The user is added to the list of users belonging to the selected group.

5. Repeat from step 3 for each user you want to add.

6. Click Save to save the user allocation.

Note

• Users can only be added to one group. If an attempt is made to add a user to a second group, a message is displayed advising that the user already belongs to an existing group.
