A user group is a logical grouping of users within a library. User groups make the distribution of documents and assignment of security easier. Only the System Administrator and users with "Full Control" rights at the library folder level can create user groups.
User groups can exist at two levels: "Global User Groups" are available from all libraries. "Local User Groups" are available only within the library they were created in.

Creating and adding users to a Global User Group:
  1. Click on the "Control Panel" link.
  2. Click on "Global User Groups".
  3. Click on "New User Group".
  4. Enter a name for the user group, then click "OK".
  5. To add users to the new group, highlight the group name from the list.
  6. Click on the "Add Member" button.
  7. Highlight the users from the list and click on the "OK" button.
Creating and adding users to a Local User Group:
  1. Click on the "Control Panel" link.
  2. Click on "Libraries".
  3. Select the library for which you wish to create a Local User Group.
  4. Click on "Local Groups".
  5. Click on "New User Group".
  6. Enter a name for the user group, then click "OK".
  7. To add users to the new group, select the group name from the list.
  8. Click on the "Add Member" button.
  9. Highlight the users from the list and click on the "OK" button.
Deleting a User Group:
  1. Navigate to the "User Group" list (either in the "Global User Groups" area, or in the "Local User Groups" area for the library in question).
  2. Select the User Group you wish to delete from the "User Group" list.
  3. Click on the "Delete User Group" button.
