Groups

A user group is a set of users who share similar roles within your organization. Every user must be a member of at least one group. Groups keep users organized and make the maintenance of user rights and permissions easier. Rights and permissions must be assigned at the group level and they apply to all users within the group. There is no limit to the number of groups you can create and no limit to the number of groups to which a user can belong. Note: When a user is in multiple groups within one practice and each group has different rights, the user has all the rights available to those groups when he or she logs on.

Users

You must set up all users before they can use the system. A user must belong to a group. Although the System Administrator application supplies you with a default enterprise, practice, group, and user, you should complete the setup of your own enterprise structure before you add users. Add Users You can create a new user in System Administrator and define properties such as the name, email password, and provider relationship.
