Loading a parent group through Unified Data Management and Onboarding Wizard


The hierarchical group structure allows you to easily organize larger groups in hierarchical order. If a group must have access to data belonging to different groups, assigning a parent group can simplify permission management. While importing companies and support groups by using the Unified Data Management (UDM) and Onboarding Wizard, you can load a parent group for a company or a support group. You can use the standard UDM and Onboarding wizard spreadsheets to specify a parent group and fix the errors corresponding to a parent group through the Error Management console.

Specifying a parent group through spreadsheets

The Company and Support Group spreadsheets for UDM and Onboarding Wizard include the Parent Company, Parent Support Organization, Parent Support Group fields.

A data administrator can perform the following actions:

  • Create a company or a support group and define a parent group for a company or a support group
  • Update the parent group for a company or a support group

Considerations when loading a parent group on the Onboarding wizard

While validating the records through Data Visualizer, you can select a parent group for a company or a support group on the Onboarding wizard for the COM:LoadCompany and CTM:LoadSupportGroup forms:

  • Set Parent Group Type—Select a parent group type to indicate if a parent group is a company or a support group. The Parent Group Name list displays the values based on the parent group type.
  • Parent Group Name—Select the parent group name. This field lists the names of companies or support groups based on the parent group type selected from the  Set Parent Group Type list.
  • Set Parent as Blank—Select this check box to remove parent group.
