A company is an attribute in a user’s profile. Every user belongs to one company only.
A company is not the same thing as a user group. However, for each company, User Management Engine (UME) automatically generates a corresponding company group.
Use companies to define sets of users and provide a form of delegated administration. Companies also allow for self-registration with an approval workflow.

By default, companies are not configured. You configure them by setting UME Properties. When you configure companies, the UMEautomatically creates a group for each company. See Configuring Companies.
