Using the Group Manager

The Group Manager provides a list of groups and the tasks required to manage those groups. Use filters to filter the list of groups to view and the group tasks to manage groups.

Note: The system administrator and users with the appropriate role can access these features. See What are Roles and Secured Actions?

The Office Profile Groups tab limits the number of groups that can display as Tabs, or Favorites. Setting a maximum number of Favorites can prevent undesirable performance issues.

Use the Group Manager view to determine which groups must display as Favorites by default for new users. You must select only the groups that must be available for all new users.
