Manage Global Groups

The Global User Groupings window provides the opportunity to define groups that are visible to all users. These global groups will then show up in all group lists such as on the status table, vacation calendar, bulletin board posts and when sending a note to a group. To access the global user groupings, click on "Global Groups..." under the "Admin Controls" menu. There is no limit to how many global groups can be created. These global groups can only be managed from the global group control and not from any local group control. The global group "All" is a built-in group and cannot be deleted or renamed. The member list for the group cannot be modified either. New users are automatically added to the "All" group.

If the name conflicts with someone's local group, you will have the option of taking the name for the global group. If so, then conflicting local groups will be automatically renamed. When a new group is created, the Edit Group Memberships window will automatically come up allowing you to set which users will be a member of the group.
