- User groups work as an addition to the user hierarchy.
- User groups are special cases where users need to be able to do something that is not definable in the user hierarchy. E.g. HR consultants may need to evaluate certain employees in an organisation. So here you would put these users into a user group where these employees could be evaluated and then define security role access to this user group.
- User groups can also be used where a company doesn’t have a hierarchical structure but certain users (not types of users) want the same rights. They can also be defined in a hierarchical structure.
- User groups are particularly useful for companies that use the Active Directory synchronization feature in MeetingBooster where they do not have a manager role defined in AD, as all their security can be handled by user groups.
Note: You can only be in one user group at a time. More information about user groups can be found in the online MeetingBooster Help documentation
