Add Users to Security Groups with VA Security Groups

Once you have created security groups, you can add users to them.

When you first implement group security, you will typically add users in VA Security Groups. Making changes in this form will update that user's profile in VA User Profile.

You must have been given form security access to VA Security Groups to add or delete users from security groups. In addition, you must have form security access to all of the companies in which that security group is used.

Important: In order to add or delete users from security groups, you must have permissions for all relevant areas relating to security, including:
  • Form security access to VA Security Groups form
  • Form security access to all of the companies where that security group is used
  • Access to all other types of security where that security group is used (such as Forms, Reports, Inquiries, Work Center, or Attachment Types).

To add users to security groups in VA Security Groups, complete the following:

  1. In VA Security Groups, select the Users tab.
  2. In the User Name field, enter the name of the user to add, or press F4 to select from a list of available users.
