How-to Guide

1. Create a group category

Entry: Admin Console → Directory → User Groups / Dynamic User Groups → Add Group

1. Open the WPS365 client, then click Admin Console at the lower-left corner of the home page.
2. Click Directory in the left-side list.
3. Click User Groups in the drop-down list.
4. Select the User Groups or Dynamic User Groups tab.
5. Click Add Group.
6. Enter a group category name, such as “Approval,” “Project,” or “Security.”
7. Click OK to create it.
8. After creation, place the relevant user groups into that category as needed.

Success Criteria

• Interface result: The new category name appears in the list.
• What you can do next: You can continue organizing related user groups under this category.
• No side effects: Existing user-group permissions and policies remain unchanged.

Tips While Using

• Use names based on business scenarios so categories are easier to identify later.
• Categories are used for organization and do not directly change group behavior.
• Before creating a category, confirm whether you are on the User Groups tab or the Dynamic User Groups tab.

2. Manage a group category

Entry: User Groups / Dynamic User Groups → More options (...)

1. Open the User Groups or Dynamic User Groups tab.
2. Select the target category and click More next to its name.
3. Choose the action you need:
   1. Select Add to add user groups to the category.
   2. Select Edit to change the category name.
   3. Select Delete to remove a category you no longer need.
4. If the category already contains user groups, edit or delete may be unavailable until you check and handle the current contents first.

Success Criteria

• Interface result: The selected action is reflected in the category list right away.
• What you can do next: You can continue maintaining other categories or return to the user-group list.
• No side effects: Other categories that were not deleted keep their existing structure.

Tips While Using

• If a category contains user groups, it cannot be edited or deleted directly.
• Before deleting, confirm whether the category still contains groups that need to be kept.
• Add, edit, and delete actions are all available from the same More menu for centralized maintenance.
