When a group of employees are to be assigned the same or very similar security settings it can be efficient to setup a template User and clone/duplicate the template to these employees. This screen is a tool to clone/duplicate a template to multiple Users.
The process to setup a template is the same as setting up a regular User. Please see What Options Are There To Setup New Users? for further information on creating new Users. Once the new Template User is created, please see How Do I Setup a User Profile, Company and OrgUnit Permissions for a New User Or Edit An Existing User? to setup the security for the template.
