Creating a New Group
Groups created using the Participant Administration utility are used in Windchill utilities that allow administrators to select participants as part of setting up context teams, access control, indexing, and notification policies or as part of setting up workflow processes or life cycle templates.
* 
If the directory server is read-only, the New Group action is not available.
* 
Administrators can also use the Groups page from the Organization context and the Team page, to create and manage the groups used with context teams.
Groups can be members of other groups, and groups are associated with the context in which they are created. After you have created a group, you can edit the group but you cannot change the context associated with the group.
Creating a new user–defined group involves creating both a group object in the Windchill database and a group entry in a directory service.
* 
To create a new group, you must have write permission to the directory service in which you want the group directory entry to reside.
To create a new user–defined group, use the following procedure:
1. From the Participant Administration table, select New Group from the Actions menu or select the new group icon.
The New Group window opens.
2. Enter information on each tab in the New Group window. Navigate between the tabs by clicking the tab name or clicking Next.
The following steps make up the New Group window: Set Attributes, Add Members, Assign to Groups, and Assign to Profiles.
3. Click Finish to create the new group.
or
Click Apply to create the new group, and leave the window open so that you can create another group.
