About user groups
VCOM provides standard user groups which cannot be deleted. Premium partners can create custom groups as needed.
Administrators can:
Assign users to a user group
Manage access to different features bases on job responsibilities and desired access to sensitive information
Easily add users to pre-defined groups as your company changes or scales up
Restrict viewing permissions to relevant information only, such as in the case of an investor
