  3. Enter the name of the new group

  5. You can now highlight the Group, and tick on the Users and Permissions to be allocated to this Group. Once completed, click Create.


Note: If the User is logged in while they are being added to a new Group or in a Group that is given new permissions, they will need to refresh JAVLN Officetech for those new permissions to be available.
