Manage agency user groups

User groups let you create teams of people to manage specific locations or location groups. By creating a user group, you're grouping together people you want to have the same level of access to certain locations. 

Anyone in your organization can create a user group. You can add people to a user group as owners or members. Here's a summary of the different capabilities of each role:
