Commands for Group Managers

Groups provide a way for internal or external callers to communicate 
with badge users based on their roles within an organization.

For example, groups let you call someone who fits a specific role (“Call a 
sales person”), belongs to a certain department (“Call Accounts Receiv-
able”), or has some other skill or authority that the caller requires (“Call 
a manager”).

Groups also provide a way to broadcast to a specific set of users at the 
same time (“All cashiers to the front, please”) or to leave messages for 
many users at once (“Send a message to Nurses Assistants”).

Some groups have management capabilities for other groups. For exam-
ple, the members of the Charge Nurse group may manage the Code 
Blue group in a hospital, or members of the Head Cashier group may 
manage the Cashier group in a retail store.

If you are a member of a group with management capabilities, you can:

• Add members to the managed group

• Remove members from the managed group

• Change the scheduling options of the managed group

• Change the forwarding options of the managed group

• Specify a group whose members can add themselves to the man-

aged group

If you have group management capabilities, you can use voice com-
mands to add users to the managed group, remove users from the man-
aged group, and record name prompts for the group. The rest of this 
chapter discusses these voice commands.

You use the User Console to perform all other management tasks. See 
the Vocera User Console Guide for more information

Members of a group with management capabilities do not have admin-
istration permission. Only a system administrator can create a group, 
delete it, or assign permissions to it.
