Summary: Permission Groups are named membership sets for object access and workflow targeting. They are not chat rooms or enterprise broadcast lists.

Permission Groups (Configuration โ†’ Access Control) are named membership sets. Admins add members, then grant object roles (spectator through owner) on programs, tasks, companies, and similar pages โ€” without maintaining ACL row-by-person. Workflow decision-makers can also target a group.

They are not social/media groups, chat rooms, or broadcast audiences. There is no staff-owned enterprise-wide or cross-instance blast surface. That is intentional: talk stays on object walls (scoped by who can see the page), invite-only chats, and channels / #channels (reception and opt-in topics).

Related, but different: Access Roles (Configuration โ†’ Access Control) grant global product capability; Teams organize delivery people inside a Program.
