Chapter 15: Grouping Units 195
Global groups that contain units the user cannot access will not be displayed, unless there are
descendent groups containing units the user is allowed to access.
All personal unit groups are displayed in the Unit Groups window, even if they do not contain any
units. In Units View Groups windows, groups will not be listed unless they have assigned units.
Figure 15.3: Unit Group Hierarchy Example
In the example, four unit groups have been created in the global root group, and each of those four
unit groups contain groups. The unit group Gamma has been selected, and indicates it has two
subgroups, Lab and Operations. The Unassigned global group will contain any units that are not
assigned to another global unit group.
Three personal unit groups have been created. The ProjectA and ProjectB unit groups do not have
subgroups. The ProjectC unit group has one or more subgroups.
To display a list of unit groups in the Unit Groups window:
1. Click the Units tab.
