For example, if you create a Marketing User Group and a separate Sales User Group, you can easily share relevant assets to all of your Marketing users by sharing them to the Marketing User Group, instead of each marketing User. This also makes it easier to revoke permissions.
User Groups will make it easier for you to change permission levels in the Software for large numbers of Users.
If you need to repeal permissions for all of your Marketing Users, the easiest way is to assign them to a User Group where a Role is also assigned. This way, you change permission levels in the software for all of your Marketing Users by just adjusting a single role already associated with that User Group, or reassigning a new Role to the Marketing User Group.
To create a new User Group, go to Setup, then User Management and then User Groups.
Create a name and description for your User Group. Select, “Show users among one another,” if you’d like others to see who is in their User Group. (It’s best to leave this unchecked so you don’t accidentally share Partner information.) Click on the 'arrow' icon when you are finished.
Choose which users you would like to add to your group by click on the icon by their name. Click on the 'arrow' icon when you are finished.
Finally, you can pick which role you would like this group to have. To select a role, next to the role. Once you click “Finish", your new group will be added.
In the User Group settings, a new option labeled “Group Manager(s)” is now available.
Clicking this option allows you to select and assign users as Group Managers.
Assigned Group Managers can view user reports for all members within the group.
These managers are also visible on the Users page, making it easy to identify which users have group-level reporting privileges.
This feature improves oversight and management capabilities within large user groups by delegating reporting access to designated users.
