## Assigning permissions
You can select a group to edit the permissions for the group. In addition to the group information, you can also see categories of individual modules, etc. Then simply click on a permission and decide whether you want to grant or deny it to the group. The following applies: Depending on whether the permission was active or not, it will be granted or denied to the group.
