# About User Groups

User groups allow you to group your users according to company organisation or even job role.

This allows you to grant permissions to tasks, task folders, or workflow jobs according to user group, rather than individual membership. This is particularly useful if users change role — only user group membership needs to change rather than tracking down each task or task folder that user currently has access to and removing or adjusting their permission.

Once a User Group has been created then Users may be added through the dialog box. Alternatively, User Groups may be selected for a specific User through the Groups tab of the User Properties dialog box.

The following methods may be used to access the dialog box:

|  | Right-click on the User Groups in the Task Manager and select the New User Group option from the menu.

|  | Click on the New User Group in the Toolbar.

|  | Double-click on an existing User Groups in the Items List.

|  | Right-click on an existing User Groups in the Items List and select the Open option from the menu.

|  | With User Groups selected in the Task Manager, right-click anywhere in the Items List and select the New User Group option from the menu.

The following two tabbed panes are provided in the User Group Properties dialog box for managing User Groups:

|  | General

|  | Members
