About Group Accounts

Groups simplify user management by organizing sets of users. You can then assign these groups to roles, which are a set of application privileges. You can also subscribe user sets to notifications, apply an initial set of user preferences, and assign non-role-related privileges to group members.

Groups also simplify the process for populating User, Multi-User, and Multi-Group fields. After you assign a group to a role, the members of that group are valid values for these field types if the role was associated to the field in SBM Composer. After you create group accounts, you may want to review the selections for the User, Multi-User, and Multi-Group fields in your system. For details, refer to Values for User, Multi-User, and Multi-Group Fields.
