All the users registered in a Virtual Organization are added to the built-in group called members. VO Managers can create groups and group hierarchies and organize the members in their VO according to their collaboration requirements. This document describes the basics of creating groups and assigning members to these groups.
1. VO Managers can create and manage groups and group hierarchies on the eduTEAMS Membership Management Service.
2. Choose your Vo from the list and click on it.
3. In the VO menu, click on "Groups" button.
4. If you have not created any group, then you should see just one group called members. All the members of your VO are in the members group.
5. In order to create a new group, click on the "Create..." button. The create group modal will pop up.
6. A Group can be created as a parent, which is the default option, or as a sub-group. Fill in the Group Name and Description and click on the green button "Create".
7. You should see the new group in the list of groups
8. Click on the group that you just created.
9. At this point the group has not members. To check that click on the "Members" button.
10. In order to add members from your VO to this group you, click on the green "Add..." button.
11. You should now see the "Add member" modal window.
12. Search for the user by his name, login or email (or just part of it) and he will be eventually listed bellow (if he is already registered in the VO).
13. Click the checkbox at the left of each user that you want to add to this group and then click on the green "Add" button.
14. Congratulations, the user(s) has/have been added to your new group!
