Working with groups

Groups are used to divide people into functional areas for reporting. People are first added to the reserved group 'Unnasigned to a group' when they are imported from a domain controller (global options), or when a new user is detected in a print log. It is optional to divide people into groups, but it makes it easier for reporting. Reports can be queried according to group name, so that seperate reports can be gernerated for each group for accounting purposes.
