| Add a User to a Permissions Group | Removing a User from a Permissions Group |
User groups should be named according to their location (e.g. dcp-ana-dam-vendors for ANA vendors, dcp-latam-dam-clc for Latin America CLCs).
New employees are automatically created in the system as general users once they have logged into BrandNext with their network ID and password.
User groups are managed in the Users console in AEM and are maintained at the region or market level by the business administrator.
New groups can be created by your IT department.
