Managing Collaboration Groups
How to get here
Use the Collaboration Groups page to create, edit, delete, or search for collaboration groups. Creating Collaboration Groups is a convenient way of organizing certain users with common attributes. For example, you might create a group that contains all the human resources staff. Once you have created a group, you can use it when specifying access (read, create, edit, or delete) to a particular folder or subfolders. For example, you can grant access for a group to a particular folder, or alternatively, you can grant access for a user to a particular group. The latter method will grant the specified user access to every folder belonging to every member of the specified group.
Search Box. This search will automatically begin narrowing the list of users. The search assumes a wildcard automatically after the characters entered. Search target includes both the "Name" and "Login Name" columns as criteria for search selection.
Name. Displays all current collaboration groups.
Add. Click this button to add a new group (on page 375).
Delete. Click this button to delete a group (on page 376).
