How to create customer groups

David Malmstrom

Maybe i've completely missed something but I really need to have this sorted and I seem not to be able to find the answer.

I need to be able to group the service desk customers in various groups. i.e. per department within the company, per partners/clients/suppliers. I seem to read various articles where it is mentioned that it is possible to create groups for customers but all I see when I attempt is that groups are not available for customers.

Any help on this would be highly appreciated. I must say I thought this is highly important for our continous use of SD.

thanks

Hi David,

It really depends on which User Directory you are using and what you want to accomplish with the groups.

By using the user pages (https//<YOUR CLOUD URL>/admin/users), you can create your groups and add the customers manually. Just make sure you don't put your customers in the jira-users group so they don't count towards your license limit.

In the Roles configuration pages of your JIRA project that you use for your Service Desk, you can include the groups of users that you want to be put in the customer role.

Kind regards,

Tom

Hi @Tom Moors [ACA IT]

This sounds so easy but this is what makes me confused and frustrated.

I created a new group, but when I want to add service desk customers to the group (Add user(s) to group) they do not show up and cannot be added. only JIRA users are in the list. Am I doing some thing wrong? I cannot see that I can make any settings on the groups I create either.
