Overview
Groups allow administrators to organize users and control access to content in LawVu Draft.
They can be used to create teams or departments with different access rights.
Groups often represent practice areas such as Corporate Law, M&A, or Employment Law, but they can also bring together users from different teams working in the same sector.
Creating a group
To create a new group:
Open the Groups section in LawVu Draft.
Click + New group.
Enter a Group name.
(Optional) Enable New user default if you want new users to automatically be added to this group.
Click Save.
Once the group is created, you can configure its members and curators.
Editing group properties
You can modify a group at any time by selecting it from the group list and editing its Properties. In the Properties tab you can
Change the group name
Set the group as the default group for new users
If a group is marked as New user default, users created by an administrator will automatically become members of that group.
This is useful for assigning users to a standard or base group when their account is created.
Administrators can still adjust group membership after the user has been created.
Managing group members
The Members tab allows administrators to add or remove users from a group.
To add members:
Select users from the Available users list.
Click Add to group.
Click Save.
To remove members:
Select a user in the Selected users list.
Click Remove from group.
Click Save.
This allows administrators to control which users belong to each group.
Assigning group curators
The Curators tab allows you to assign one or more curators to a group.
Curators are users responsible for reviewing or managing content associated with that group.
To assign curators:
Select users from the Available curators list.
Add them to the Assigned curators list.
Click Save changes.
When users submit content for review, the assigned curators will be visible as the responsible reviewers for that group.
