Assign users to a group

A user assigned to a group will inherit all the permissions of that group. You can assign a user to one or more groups, and the users will have all the cumulate permissions of the groups. For example, if the user is in the Front Desk and in the Cashier group, they may be able to do both scheduling and billing.

Note that unassigning a user from a group will restrict permissions of that user
