Companyname
users belong to teams and groups. Groups set the level of access to tables, records, and fields. Team settings affect other parts of the interface such as the color scheme, available table views, and the user's default home page. Teams also define working groups of users, and can receive emails that go to every member of the team.

Users in multiple groups receive the superset of those groups' access settings. Users can also belong to multiple teams, but must always have a Primary Team to set important defaults. Groups are time consuming to configure due to the sophistication of the permission options.  For easier maintenance, we recommend keeping the number of groups relatively as small as possible.

Terminology

A note about terminology: We use the term end user to mean users who access the system through the end user interface, a simplified interface that allows them to create records of any kind, view any records made available to them, edit records defined as their own, and view any FAQs made available to them. These users cannot edit records defined as belonging to other people and they use the unlimited end user license.
