Groups

 

Groups can be added locally and then assigned to local workers using the Membership option in the context menu. Workers imported via external system (e.g. Dynamics 365, Salesforce, Active Directory, etc.) will have their group information imported if configured, and those relationships cannot be enhanced or modified in CFSWorX. Adding, changing, or removing group membership for those workers must be done in the external system (e.g. Dynamics 365, Salesforce, Active Directory, etc.).

 

Groups also have right-click support to view membership. For local groups, you can change the membership of local users. The dialog is the same as the membership for users, except it shows the opposite. In this case, it shows which users belong to the selected group. See Membership for additional info.
