can I assign a user to multiple security groups in the SuiteCRM? example: If there are groups like Group 1, Group 2, and Group 3. If I want to assign myself (user) to all three groups is it possible?
My question is my user ID will be available in all three groups, therefore if I mass assign all the modules to my three security groups, will the security function work accordingly? Also, am I able to see those groups records or I will see all the records in the SuiteCRM?
You are correct. Now to control what the user can see or not you’ll need to use roles as well.
Basically security groups allow you to classify or “group” your records based on your own criteria. Roles on the other hand will allow you to control what the user can see, edit, etc.

Thank you so much @BrozTechnologies, and I want to know about inherit checkbox from the security settings. What this function actually does? Can you explain with an example?
