Groups
You can logically organize collections of users into groups, which allows you to identify a group of users by a group name rather than identifying each user individually. For example, if you want to assign a group of users to a role, you can simply assign the group containing the users to the role, rather than identifying each user individually.
To define a group, you can do the following:
*Add groups to the internal system directory service. You provide information about the group and define its membership. You can assign both individual users or other groups to be a members. The users and groups that you assign to a group that is defined in the internal system directory service must also be defined in the internal system directory service. That is, you cannot assign users or groups that are defined in an external directory service to an internally-defined group. For information about how to manage groups in the internal system directory, see Managing Groups.
*Access groups already defined in external directory services. If you want to use groups that are defined in one or more external directory services, you can configure My webMethods Server to use the external directory services. For more information, see Managing External Directory Services.
Note:  
With My webMethods Server, you can use a combination of groups that are defined in both the internal system directory service and external directory services.
