Defining Security Groups

Once you have activated this advanced security setting (see Administrator Information | Security Groups for more information) the next step is to define the Security Groups here.

If you are using the Security Groups feature, you would normally have a minimum of two Security Groups - one with restrictions and the other without. However, you may set up as many Security Groups as are applicable for your organisation.

You can access Security Groups from two different points:

1. From the Navigator go to Company | Maintain company details. In the company window, the Security Groups node is listed on the left.
   OR...
   From the Navigator go to Payroll | Payroll Framework then double click the Security Groups node. This opens the Company window with the Security Groups node expanded.
   
2. Click Add New to create a new Security Group, or if you want to make changes to an existing Security Group, select it from the list then click Edit.
3. The Security Group simply requires an appropriate Description.
   Reserved is not an active option within Security Groups.

Once an employee has been included in a Security Group, their name will be listed when you expand the node for the Security Group in the tree on the left.

Note that Security Groups cannot be deleted.
