Creating and managing groups

You can manage multiple user accounts by adding the user accounts to a group and managing the group.

A group is a collection of related BlackBerry device users who share commonly configured properties. Administering users as a group is more efficient than administering individual users because properties can be set, applied, or changed simultaneously for all members of the group.

The BlackBerry Device Service includes preconfigured groups. You can also create groups to meet your organization's requirements.

A group can contain user accounts, administrator accounts, and other groups (which are called child groups). When you configure properties for a group, the accounts and groups in the group inherit the properties.

When you add a group to another group, you create a parent and child group relationship. The properties of the parent group are inherited by the user accounts in the child groups.
