To edit a group
Editing a group from the Group tab consists of modifying the permissions for the group. If you want to edit a group by adding or deleting users, then you must do so from the Users tab. (See Managing Users in NextGENe.) Also, you cannot edit a group name. If you need to rename a group, you must delete the current group, and then create a new group with the new name.
 | Although you can edit the permissions that are assigned to the NextGENe default groups, SoftGenetics strongly recommends that you not do so. Instead, you should create a new group with the appropriate permissions, and then assign the appropriate users to the new group. |
1. Select the group for which you are modifying the permissions, and then click Edit Group.
The Edit Group dialog box opens. The group name is displayed in the Group name field, and you cannot edit it. The permissions that are currently assigned to the group are also displayed.
2. Modify the permissions for the group as needed.
3. Click OK.
A message opens, indicating that the group was successfully edited.
4. Click OK.
The message closes. The Groups tab remain opens.
5. Click OK.
The User Management Settings dialog box closes.
