User Groups<\/a>. In the user interface, you will see these when you create a new message and add recipients (‘Other’ recipient type). This is only available for ’employee’ group types and the visibility of this setting is customisable, so not all employees, parents and learners need to have access. <\/p>\n\n\n\nTo set up custom Communicator Groups, administrators go to the User Groups<\/strong> tab in the administration settings and select +Create New User Group<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nSelect the ’employee’ group type to create the group for Communicator. <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nFill in the name of the group and select the members. You can create groups with only one person, e.g. the SEND Co. or larger groups to fulfil your needs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nThen select <\/em>who you would like to be able to see this group as a recipient choice. You can choose multiple user groups such as parents, learners, employees and teachers, and fixed user groups such as SLT. <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nSave your group for it to be visible in Messages<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nWhen you select recipients, the group you created will appear in ‘Other’ in New Message. <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nClick on ‘Other’ and you will see a multi-select dropdown menu of the Communicator Groups. This will vary between users, depending on who has been given permission to use the group(s) as recipients. As this is multi-select, you can tick more than one group to message. <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nYou can customise the group(s) further in the usual way once you have selected them, i.e. removing some members from the email (click on the checkmark), exporting an undeliverable list, etc…<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nWhen you are ready, click Next Step<\/strong> to compose your message<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nMIS Compatibility<\/h2>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"You can create ‘Other’ Communicator Groups in User Groups.
