Creating a Group

The repository administrator is responsible for creating the different groups of users in the repository.

Select Repository > Administration > Groups to open the List of Groups.
Click the Add a row tool and type a name in the Name column.
Click the Properties tool to open the property sheet of the new group.
Complete the appropriate properties and then click OK.

Each PowerDesigner repository group has the following general properties:

Property	Description
Name	The name of the item which should be clear and meaningful, and should convey the item's purpose to non-technical users
Code	The technical name of the item used for generating code or scripts, which may be abbreviated, and should not generally include spaces
Comment	Additional information about the group

Note:

You have to grant access rights to a new group in order for user members to inherit these permissions (see Specifying Group Rights). If a user connects to the repository without access rights, he cannot see any document in the browser.
