Group Management

ABOUT THIS SERVICE

Group Management leverages the same groups or roles across many SFU services and resources to simplify group management. This design allows SFU Groups (powered by Grouper) to provide a single location to view and manage group membership.

Group managers in SFU Groups can provision access to various services or resources using Security Groups, or distribute emails to a list of SFU individuals using Exchange Distribution Groups.
