A security group has one or more members and determines which application functions its members are entitled to perform. If you have not yet identified which users are allowed to sign into V-Suite users do so first via the User application.

You can add a new custom security group via the Entitlement application. The Entitlement Application can be accessed via the System Administration icon on the V-Suite home page.

Click the new security group icon. This displays the New Security Group form which lets you specify the following:

• Security Group properties
• Security Group permissions
• Security Group members

Security Group Properties

A security group has the following properties:

• Group Name - The name of the security group. This field is required and must be unique.
• Description - The description of the security group. This field is optional and may be left blank.

Security Group Permissions

A security group has one or more application permissions. Click the Permissions Tab to define the application permissions for the security group. The Permissions Tab displays all supported V-Suite  applications. For each application, you will be presented with one or more application permissions. Select the application functions that members of the security group are entitled to perform.

Security Group Members

A security group has one or more members. Click the Users Tab to add members to the security group.

Enter the name of the user you wish to add in the Assign Users text-box. A dropdown is populated with user names of users whose first name, last name or username starts with the string you entered.

The selected username is added to the text box. You may continue entering users in the text box or click the Add button to add the selected users to the security group.
