Note: You can assign one or more user groups to a user in this screen OR you can assign users to a user group in the User Groups screen (Administration\Maintain\Users).
Use the fields in this subtask to link one or more user groups to a user. There is no system requirement that you link a user group to a user.
You must have already established user group information in the User Groups screen (Administration\Maintain\Users). Because you can establish security rights to each user group, a user assigned to a specific user group inherits the security rights of that user group.
The most efficient way to set up security rights for users is to first establish rights for user groups. Then, if necessary, you can use the Module Rights subtask in this screen to override group rights for this user at the module level. If you choose, you can assign rights at the application, result set, or action/report rights by result set levels, as desired.
