USER GROUPS

Creating User Groups can be done before or after importing users. The administrator can create user groups based on subject, class room, grade level, or other as needed. Creating different user groups makes it easier to assign permissions to licenses.

Note: The user group type employees is a great group to use for those IT staff members that don’t need a license assigned to them, but do need the permissions to manage licenses for the organization.

Creating User Groups

Selecting the Create button opens the CREATE USER GROUP dialog box. Enter the following information:

Name
Type
Description
Entitlements

Note: After you have entered the information for the user group, you can select what license/entitlement should be assigned to the group. If you have made only one purchase, you will just see one option. If you have multiple licenses, the entitlement name is helpful to tell the difference between them. The entitlement name format is <Start date><Product name><Duration>.

Select CREATE to complete.
