Assigning SharePoint groups to SharePoint user accounts

Groups can be assigned directly or indirectly to employees. In the case of indirect assignment, employees and groups are arranged in hierarchical roles. The number of groups assigned to an employee is calculated from the position in the hierarchy and the direction of inheritance.

If you add an employee to hierarchical roles and the employee owns a user authenticated user account, the user account is added to the group. Prerequisites for indirect assignment of employees to user accounts:

  • Assignment of employees and groups is permitted for role classes (departments, cost centers, locations, or business roles).
  • The Group authenticated option is not set in the user accounts.
  • User accounts are marked with the Groups can be inherited option.
  • User accounts and groups belong to the same site collection.

Groups can also be assigned to employees through IT Shop requests. So that groups can be assigned using IT Shop requests, employees are added to a shop as customers. All groups assigned to this shop can be requested by the customers. Requested groups are assigned to the employees after approval is granted.
