Things You Can Do 
 To add a new "Shared User Group" 
to the list, click the [+] near the 
bottom of the screen (or right-click 
the screen, and select "Add New" 
from the pop-up menu. 
 To delete an unused "Shared User 
Group", right-click it in the list, and 
select "Delete". 
Note: You cannot delete a "Shared User 
Group" from the list if it is presently being used (i.e., 
assigned to any accounts). 
 To enter or change settings for a "Shared 
User Group", refer to the item-descriptions 
for this screen. 
Note: 'Grid' view does not apply to this feature. 
- Community Name: This allows selecting one 
"Community" for which "Shared User Groups" 
can be viewed, edited, or added.  
- Group Name: Each row represents one 
"Share
d User Group". Select the existing 
name, and type to change it to something 
more suitable (e.g., "North Users", "Divisional 
Managers", etc.). 
- Start and End: Use the arrows to select the 
start and end value for your desired range of 
shared user ID#s (blocks of 10).  
- Authority Range: This sets a range of 
authority ID#s to be reserved for associated 
shared users. This is done in blocks of five 
(whether they all will be used or not). Click 
the small button here, and then use the 
arrows in the small screen to select the start 
and end value for your desired range of 
authority ID#s (e.g., 1-5, 11-20, etc.). When 
finished, click [OK].  
Note: Since user 'authorities' are tied to 'areas' (and 
since security requirements may differ between sites), 
the authorities themselves cannot be shared across 
multiple accounts. Instead, they are set up as usual 
for each account as discussed in step 1C. 
- Community Name: When you right-click and 
select "Add New", the new "Shared User 
Group" is assigned to the present 
"Community" by default. If it is not presently 
being used, you can change its community 
here. 
Notice: If you change this value, the "Shared User 
Group" will no longer appear here--unless you select 
its new "Community" at the top of the screen. 
- Assigned Accounts: For "Shared User 
Groups" that have been assigned to 
account(s), a small button will appear here to 
allow viewing the associated accounts. 
Authority Name 
- Authority: This shows each reserved 
authority ID number for the selected "Shared 
User Group" row (select the desired row 
above first).  
Note: When you first add a "Shared User Group", its 
authority information will not be available here until 
you either click the "Save" button, or go to another 
screen, and then return to this one. 
- Name: This is a reference description that will 
appear when assigning authorities to groups 
of shared users.  
It is useful to set these to indicate the reserved ID# 
(such as: "1st ID--CEO & Directors", "2nd ID--
Division Managers", etc.).
