Tip: If the user will have a helpdesk user account, assign them to the
highest-level user group in your user group hierarchy. Since they will only be
able to assist users in the same group or any subgroup of their group, placing
them at the highest level of your group hierarchy allows them to manage the
widest distribution of users. If the user is to be designated a local (or group)
administrator, assign them to whatever individual group hierarchy they will
control.
