The Department Group Tools are designed to provide department users with an easy to use way of creating and managing groups without the requirement to have the native tools (ADUC, PowerShell) installed.
Roles
The following roles are defined in the Department Group Tools:
| Roles | Functions |

| Department OU Owner | Edit the Department Group Administrators |
| Department Group Administrator | Create, delete, and modify all managed groups in the department. (This includes designating Group Managers on each group.) |
| Group Manager | Manage the memberships of the group by adding or removing members. |
Group Location in AD
All groups created by the Department Group Tools are stored in the Department's sub-OU located in austin.utexas.edu/Groups/Managed
Logging
