Assigning Group Managers

Using the Management Console, the Full Administrator can delegate limited group-management permissions to other Scalix users. These users, in turn, manage groups of which they are members.

A Group Manager can:

Add or delete members from a group
Modify group-specific information about members

Note	The Group Manager role has a more limited scope than ScalixGroupAdmin members, who can manage all of the existing groups.

Assigning a group manager

To assign a user as Group Manager:

In the toolbar, click the User button.
In the contents pane, select the relevant user account.
When the user's options appear in the display pane, click the Manager Of tab.
In the area labelled Filter Users by, use the Type menu or Name field to find the appropriate group.
When you find the group that this user is to manage, click the checkbox to the left of the group name.
Click the now-active Save Changes button at the bottom of the display pane.

You can now open the Groups list and verify that this user is now the manager of that group.

See "Logging in as a Group Manager" for more information.
