Workgroup tab

Use workgroups to configure the default values for various parameters that apply to groups of users. For example, configure workgroup settings for time zone, report footers, printers, and servers. Typically, the system administrator configures the settings during the IEE system configuration process.

Assign users who perform the same role, but work on different data, to the workgroups. By editing an existing workgroup, new workgroups can be added to reflect required changes in personnel assignments or work processes.

Tip: When you select the workgroup in the tree, the users assigned to the workgroup are listed in the Users in Selected Workgroup pane (on the right).
