Function documentation Hierarchy Grouping Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

Use

You can arrange users hierarchically into groups under root nodes and in doing so, assign device configurations to multiple users.

You can have just one root node. You cannot make assignments at this level.

Note

The system automatically assigns the mobile devices used by the users to synchronize. You cannot assign mobile devices to a particular group directly.

You can also determine which users or roles are allowed to manage the various groups of users. Users of the Mobile Administrator will only see hierarchy groups if are assigned to them as administrator or if they have the hierarchy super user role (see Structure linkSetting Up Administrator Users).

Prerequisites

The users you want to assign to a hierarchy group, exist in the system.

Activities

The function incorporates the following activities:

      Finding, creating, and deleting a hierarchy and groups.

Caution

If you delete the root node for a hierarchy, the entire hierarchy (including all its substructures) is also deleted with it.

      Assigning users to a group.

      Moving users in the hierarchy.

      Assigning device configurations to a hierarchy group and users.

      Assigning authorizations for managing users and groups.

For more information on creating a hierarchy, see Creating a Hierarchy.
