Using The New Group Management Section
How to access
You can access the Group Management page by logging into your MemberClicks Admin section. After you log in, browse to Database > Group Management.
Description
Group Management enables administrators to control the different user group types within database. Each user profile that is contained in the database must belong to a specific Group. Your solution automatically contains two Groups - Admin and Basic Contacts, but new Groups can be created at any time to handle any specific needs for your database. All Groups can be modified to control the Attributes and Permissions of the Group with the exception of some limits on Basic Contacts. The specific characteristics of a Group are controlled using Group Management.
Group Structure
The Group Structure section of the Group Management page allows you to view all user groups and parent-child relationships in your database. The user groups tree allows you to visualize all groups in your database, including groups that have parent/child relationships. To create Parent/Child relationships, click on a group and drag it over the name of another group. You will see a '+' sign appear to the left of the name of the group denoting that if you release your mouse button, a new child relationship will be created. Child groups will appear indented underneath the parent group.
- Add. This button will add a new group to your database. Clicking it will allow you to populate appropriate group information in the Group Properties section.

Group Properties
The Group Properties section of the Group Management page allows you to view properties of the selected group in the Group Structure section.

Cascading Attributes will be pre-populated into child group profiles on application forms taken by users in the parent group. Assigning attributes as Cascading Attributes will save parent group users having to re-enter shared attributes on application forms
