User Groups Management
Who can create and manage a user group?
Due to security reasons, only users linked to a user group and with the Manage a user group permission may create and modify user groups.
What is a parent user group?
User groups are a hierarchical structure. A child user group may only have the access rights that the parent user group already has.
For example:
- The Group_1 user group does not have permission called Manage the funding accounts.
- You are creating Group_2 and you select Group_1 as the Parent Group.
- The option to add the Manage the funding accounts permission is not displayed on the Add User Group page and you cannot add this permission as long as Group_2 is selected as the Parent Group.
What is a user group?
The owner of the Business Account creates a user group. It specifies account access rights for users assigned to this group, for example: managing users, creating cards, transferring funds, and more. Multiple users may be linked to the same user group, but each user may only be linked to one user group.
