Groups

A group is a set of users with a type and a set of permissions; it defines a user’s role on the platform. The Groups tab on the Admin Dashboard is where groups are created and configured. For how group types map to what people can do, see User roles.

Columns

Column	What it is
Name	The group’s name.
Type	The group type — Admin, Studio Department, Regional Contact, or Vendor (see below).
Studios	The studios the group covers, shown as tags.
Members	The users in the group.
Addresses	The group’s mailing addresses.
Domains	Email domains used to auto-assign new users to the group.

Group types

Type	Role
Admin	Full platform access, including the Admin Dashboard.
Studio Department	Belongs to one studio; typical studio-side access (sharing, download, orders, notes).
Regional Contact	Scoped to a studio, project, and territory with more limited access. Commonly called a territory.
Vendor	A localization partner spanning the studios/projects/territories they work on — see Localization vendors.

Editing a group

The group form is organized into tabs:

• General — Name, Type, the Studios the group covers, its Members, and any Domains for auto-assignment.
• Addresses — one or more mailing addresses (name, address, city, state, postal code, country).
• Billing — billing rates per work section (graphics, narration, scripts, dubbing), as length-based or flat rates.
