Security Groups are named sets of access privileges to be applied enmasse to specific types of employees.

The reason for creating security groups and defining the security privileges for each group is to save you time when adding a new employee.  It also assures uniformity.  However, as an employee's responsibilities increase, you can change the employee's rights by either assigning the employee to a different security group or removing security group settings and manually choosing security options.

Groups of employees, can be named by a job function or team assignment such as Service, Accounting, Cashiers, Stock Room, or Management who all share similar security privileges.
