Manage User Groups

 

Click 'Users' > 'User Groups'

  • You can create groups of users to simplify and streamline management. For example, you can group users according to existing corporate units ('Sales Dept.', 'Accounts Dept.') and/or by type of user.
  • Once created, you can apply specific profiles to each group as required. See Configuration Profiles for more help with profiles.

        • You can also import users and user groups from Active Directory using LDAP. EM will periodically synchronize with AD to ensure any user updates are mirrored in the EM database. See Import User Groups from LDAP for more details.

        The 'User Groups' interface lists all existing groups and allows you to add and edit groups. You can also assign profiles to groups from this interface.

        • Click 'Users' > 'User Groups' to open the groups interface.
