From main menu we select **Users / Edit Groups** and then the group type we want to manage. [c5]_

We select **Create Group**.

We are asked to provide the following (|image1|_):

* **Group Description** : A very short description of the group. We should keep it short as this descriptive name will be shown in LServerAdmin menus and dialogs.
* **Group Name (latin)** : A short name in lowercase latin chars for the Linux and Windows system group. This group name can be used by the OS to apply policies if needed.

For example Group Description : *B1 Economics*, Group Name : *b1ec*.

In the next dialog we select the **Parent Group** our group belongs to (|image2|_).

Let's select *B Class* for example.

That's it! Our new group has been added and we are ready to add users to it.
