==Subscribing Sub-Groups==
 +
[[File:Subscribing Subgroups.png|right|400px]]
 +
By default each organisational grouping needs to be added individually to a service, in order for it's members to be subscribed too the service.  In the case where you have an organisational structure where you are utilising sub-groups linked to a parent group - i.e Departments under a Company grouping, and the members of each department are listed under the relevant department but not also in the Company Grouping, you may want to subscribe all the departments and therefore all the members by simply subscribing the parent company grouping.  To facilitate this approach you can do the following:
 +
 
 +
* Enable the '''com.hornbill.servicemanager.services.subscriptions.allowSubgroupsInclusion''' system setting
 +
:* This will enable the ability to subscribe sub-groups to a service based on the parent grouping being subscribed - but it will '''not''' automatically:
 +
::* Apply to existing Group Subscriptions
 +
::* Apply to new Group Subscriptions
 +
 
 +
With the setting enabled, you can now choose to allow sub-group subscriptions when applying new group subscriptions, and managing existing group subscriptions to a service.
 +
 
 +
===Enabling Sub-Group Subscriptions===
 +
 
 +
When subscribing a new organisational grouping to a service, or managing an existing organisational group subscription to a service, a '''Sub-Grouping''' Icon will now be visible.
 +
* By Default this will be set to '''Disabled'''
 +
* To Subscribe all members of the sub-groups to the service, based on their parent groups subscription, click on the icon to '''Enable'''.
 +
* To disable sub group and their members subscription to the service, based on the parent grouping subscription simply click on the '''Icon''' to disable it.
 +
* The sub-group option will not apply to non organisational based groupings i.e sites, users, contacts.
 +
 
 +
'''Catalog Item''' Visibility in the '''Request Catalog''' for Sub-Group members subscribed via their Parent Organisational Grouping, will respect the parents inclusion or exclusion to each catalog item's visibility.
