This page is for PhixFlow administrators who need to set up groups of users with access to specific objects, data and processes in PhixFlow. It describes the user group properties. For related information, see the PhixFlow User Administration topic.

Overview

Use the user group property tab to add users to a user group. The user group inherits privileges from the roles listed in the property tab; see Roles and Privileges. The privileges provide members of a user group with access to PhixFlow features, modelling objects, display components, actions and applications. If you need to restrict user access to sub-sets of modelling objects, display components etc. you can add the objects to this property tab.

Adding or Changing a User Group

To create or change a user group, in the repository scroll down to the User Groups  section. 

To change an existing user group, double-click on the name to open its property tab.

To add a new user group, right-clickUser Groups and select  Create New. PhixFlow opens a property tab where you can enter the details for the new user group.
