Tip: The advantage of adding an entire group such as Users as a member of another group, is that adding/removing members from the Users group also grants and removes their permissions to all groups where Users are members.
For example, you want to grant members of Users permissions to create and edit checklists. You select the user group that has the permissions you want, or you can create an own group. In this example, the system group Checklists – Edit has the desired permissions.
Instructions
1. Go to the control panel and click User Groups in the middle column.
2. Click the permission group for which you want to use the permissions.
3. Click the Members tab.
4. A list of the members of the group is now displayed.
5. To add a group as a member, click Select groups, select the group to be added. Then click OK followed by Add.
All members of the group Users now have permissions for both Users and Checklists Edit.
Note: If a user is a member of permissions groups that have permissions in the same modules, these permissions are summarised and the user is granted the permissions for all groups.
In order for the members to only have the permissions in modules for one of the groups, the permissions for the other group must be disabled.
