Working with Groups |
If you are a group manager and also a tiered administrator, you can use the Administration Console to perform both group management and tiered administrator tasks.
If you are a member of a group with management capabilities, you can do any of the following tasks:
Change all of the basic information except the group name and the site.
The basic information includes alternate spoken names and other speech recognition features, scheduling options, and the group phone extension.
Specify whether to use the group as a department, enter a PIN for telephony, and enter a cost center ID.
Add and remove group members, change their order, and specify whether the group has only temporary membership.
Change the forwarding options.
Specify a group whose members can add themselves to the managed group.
Maintain the list of members in the associated conference group.
Members of a group with management capabilities can use voice commands to add and remove members from the managed group. For example, a member of the Head Nurse group that manages the Code Blue group could issue the following commands:
Add Lin Ma to Code Blue
Remove Cardiologists from Code Blue
Refer to the Vocera Badge User Guide for more information on these voice commands.
Often, these voice commands are the only features a group manager needs to use. However, all the tools for managing a group are available through the Edit Groups page of the User Console. This page appears in the User Console only if you are a member of a group that has permission to manage another group. The rest of this section shows you how to use the Edit Groups page.
