Inheritance and Group settings
- Many user settings can be set to enabled ("Yes"), disabled ("No") or "Inherit." The inherit setting is the default. The inherit setting will cause the settings of the group the user is in (by default, the "All Users" group if using the internal PBX directory) to apply to the user. This allows settings for users to be centrally changed by editing the group's settings.
User Manager groups can be used to control permissions for the Administration Panel, User Control Panel or various external services.
To read more about the different types of permissions see User Management Group/User Settings
