Security Groups List

A security group is a named collection of permission settings. The collection defines what a user can see and do in the system. Each permission setting either allows or does not allow members of the group to perform a particular action.

A user can be a member of more than one security group, see Compilation of permissions.

Case Manager ships with a set of standard security groups that match the typical actions of different kinds of Case Manager users. Each business should customise these to match their own practices.

To access the Security Group List select List > Security Groups List from the main menu.

The left hand side lists the groups and has buttons at the top that provide some standard grid icons and features.

The right hand side provides access to the permission settings of the selected group. You can change these settings, see Setting permissions for details.
