User groups contain a set of specific roles that are accessible to the users assigned to the group. User groups allow us to specify certain users who may need levels of administrator access, for instance.
To create a new user group, perform the following:
First, navigate to the User Group configuration page (User Management | User Group).
Click on Add New to create a new user group.
Specify a Name:
Click on Save.
After the page refreshes, from the Related Links drop-down in the upper right corner select Assign Role to User Group:
Click on Go.
Click on Assign Role to Group:
Check the box next to each role we are to assign to this User Group.
Click on Add Selected.
The selected role(s) will appear in the box titled Role:
Click on Save.
The user group may now be assigned to end users and application users. For this particular recipe, I created a standard User Group that I use for assigning AXL permissions.
