User Groups
User Groups let you add teams and set permissions so you can customize what your people can do when they're using Martide.
Note: the User Group should be selected when you create the Interview Stage or Approval Step in a Recruitment Pipeline.
Log into Martide. Click Settings in the menu under your profile picture and then User Groups:

You will see this page. At first your page will be empty but in our example we've added 3 groups:

Here you can:
- Add a new User Group.
- Edit and delete current User Groups. To edit, click the pen icon. To delete, click the trash can.
- Filter your groups alphabetically or numerically by clicking the arrow next to Name.
How to add a new User Group
Click the Add User Group button. You will go to this page. (We'll go through it in 2 steps.)

Here you can:
- Name your User Group, for example Crew Managers.
- Add your coworkers to the group by clicking the Users box. This will show everyone in your company with a Martide account.
- Choose if you want the group to be able to override approval requirements in a pipeline. (Explained in more detail below.)
Scroll down and you will see:

Check the box beside each function to giver the User Group permission to View, Edit or Delete features in Martide.
There are 3 sections: General, Seafarer Profile and Settings.
For example, we'll create a new User Group for Crew Managers:

Click Save and the new User Group will appear on the main page:

Understanding the Pipeline Approval button
Where it says Allow pipeline stage override, slide the button across so it shows blue - this means it is activated:

This will allow users in that group to override an approval stage in a Pipeline to let a candidate move to the next stage even if all the required information hasn’t been entered.
