Default groups and assigned roles for AVEVA Unified Engineering

The following table lists the default groups provided out of the box and the roles assigned. The default group names are prefixed “AVEVA UE” to help differentiate from any custom groups you may choose to create.
Note: AVEVA recommends a naming convention for the groups when using CONNECT folders. To clearly distinguish between groups of various folders, the group names must be suffixed with your account folder name if your AVEVA Unified Engineering environment is enabled at folder level. If enabled at your CONNECT account level, then the group names need not be suffixed with anything. For example, if your AVEVA Unified Engineering environment is enabled at the folder ASSET A, then the recommended group names are AVEVA UE Catalogue Administrator (ASSET A), AVEVA UE 2D Drafter (PID) (ASSET A) and so on.
