Client Group

This column lists the organization(s) in which this user has Client Access. The organizations you can see here depend on your account access. For example, if you have a tenant-level account, you will see the user's company, division, and group in this column. If you have group-level access, you will only see the user's group. If no group is listed, the user does not have Client Access (cannot use dictation or shortcuts).

These accounts cannot be updated using mass edit options Enable/Disable, Update Client Group, or Update Enabled Through. These accounts cannot be deleted unless they are disabled (which must be done either via the SSO provider or by disabling their entire organization). The following settings for auto provisioned accounts are managed via SSO provider and cannot be updated in nVoq.Administrator: Username, First Name, Last Name, Email Address, Enabled status, Enabled Through date, Client Access, and Client Group.

If you have a system-level account, you may see the tenant, company, division, and group. If you have group-level access, you may only see the group. If the user has access at a higher organization level than you do, you will only see the word "Organization" in this column.

Admin Role

This column can be displayed in the list by selecting it in the Customize Columns window. 
This is this account's role in nVoq.Administrator (if any) and the organization level to which the role has access (e.g. "Division Customer Admin").
