User Management and Access › Copy a Group Definition

Copy a Group Definition

A group defines access for multiple users. Copying duplicates the members in the original group to a new group name and group ID, creating a template for new groups. Users retain the same model and subset access they had before the copy.

You must have access to the encyclopedia to copy a group. When you copy a group, you become the owner of the copied group.

Follow these steps:

1. Log on to the encyclopedia through the Encyclopedia Client.
2. Open the group.
3. In the Group Selection window, select Actions, Copy.
4. Type a New Group Id and a New Group Name.
5. Click OK to copy the group.

After copying a group, you can add new users to the copied group.
