Combining
individual users into a group can make your administration tasks easier. For
example, you can:
- Create groups such as Software Engineers or Managers,
and subscribe them to different databases.
- Base
an e-mail rule on a group (for example, notify the Quality Assurance group
whenever a user submits a new defect).
- Write hook
scripts or external applications with conditional logic for groups (for example,
only members of the Managers group can reopen a defect marked Resolved).
