## Description

**As** a user manager  
**I want to** organize my groups hierarchically  
**so that** I can use nested groups with inheritance of permissions and memberships

**Acceptance criteria**

  - Groups can be nested

  - Roles & Permissions are inherited through the hierarchy
    
      - Group Structure: Development Team -\> Sirius Team
    
      - When I make the *Development Team* a member of the project, also members from *Sirius Team* will be a a member of the project and get the permissions

**Technical notes**

  - We keep existing groups as they are

**Permissions and visibility considerations**

**Translation considerations**

**Out of scope**

  - The organizational unit structure will be a separate ticket <mention class="mention" data-id="72224" data-type="work_package" data-text="#72224">\#72224</mention> 

*Set the* **To be informed/consulted teams** *field to include all teams necessary to be informed of the changes.*
