Group types exist to identify the "child" companies of a specific partner and the specific products that a partner or their customer has subscribed to or otherwise needs access to. Group types also ensure that data is aggregated on the relevant levels only.
Note: This menu is available to top-level platform admins only.
To assist in the meaningful structuring of collections and groups, you can tag these by type in the Storage Platform Console by using right-click > Set Group Type.
The group types menu is visible to all users who have permission to edit group/collection settings, i.e. any collection/storage admin or non-admin with the user permission group.UpdateSettings.
Users will see the following options:
| Group type | Icon colour | Description |
| Company | Turquoise | A collection for a reseller's customer (will have Base Product groups under it) |
| Base Product | Purple | A collection for a service category, such as Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Machines |
Please note: Base product groups (with the exception of machines) should not be set manually. New cloud collections created on the RedApp will automatically be assigned the correct group type.
