Using administration groups

Written by Laura Bennett

Administration Groups allow you to segregate the user data so that Administrators and Moderators can only access the user data that’s appropriate for them to see.

Once enabled and configured, all reports containing user data in the Administration Centre are filtered according to the Administration Groups you are an Administrator or Moderator for.

The steps to set this up are as follows:

  1. Create your Administration Groups (e.g. UK, USA, China)

  2. Assign the Administrators and Moderators for each group

  3. Assign your users to the correct Administration Groups - Editing users

You will always start with a group named 'Default Admin Group'. All your users will be there initially. You can rename this if you wish.

Click 'Add a new administration group' to add a new one. Specify the name and save it. Repeat for each group you need.

Next to each group you can see how many users there are in the group, and who the Administrators and Moderators are. When you create a new group, you are automatically an Administrator and Moderator for it. Add additional Administrators and Moderators following these steps - Updating Administrator and Moderator permissions.

Note: You can only see and edit users in the Administration Groups that you are the Administrator and Moderator for/ You cannot move someone into an Administration Group that you do not have access to.

Some parts of Talos Perform do not filter according to your Administration Group. These include:

  • Forms (making a change to a form will affect other people using that form in another Administration Group)

  • Configuration settings

  • Objective templates

  • Email notifications

  • Dashboard company announcement

  • Recognition

  • Review groups and automatic cycles

  • Job descriptions

  • Account-wide files

Tip: When importing new users in bulk or via an API, you’ll need to ask us to provide you with the AdminGroupIDs of your Administration Groups so you can assign users as part of the import.
