The Delete SharePoint Group Permissions lets you delete the permissions of one or more SharePoint groups from a single site collection or site without removing its members or deleting the group itself.
NOTE: This action deletes all permissions currently assigned to a group. Once permissions have been removed from a SharePoint group, the group will display in the SharePoint Group Analysis. Whether or not the group continues to display in the SharePoint Hierarchy or any ControlPoint group pickers depends on the Value of the ControlPoint Configuration Setting Show SharePoint Groups with No Permissions in Hierarchy.
This feature is not available at the farm (tenant) scope.
To delete SharePoint Group Permissions:
1Select the site collection or site whose group permissions you want to delete.
2Choose Users and Security > Delete SharePoint Group Permissions.
3Select the group(s) whose permissions you want to delete as follows:
a)From the Available Items list, select the group(s) to which you want to add users and move them to the Selected Items list.
Note that all groups defined for the entire site collection that have at least one associated permissions level display beneath the root site. Groups with unique permissions also display beneath the site granting those permissions. Any group that does not have at least one associated permissions level for the site collection or site will not display in the list.
TIP: If your Available Items list is particularly long, you may find it useful to narrow the scope by searching based on Group name, site Name, and/or site URL) and searching for the group. For example, if you want to narrow your scope to all group owners, enter "owner" in the Group field.
b)Click [Apply].
4If your selection includes one or more sites and you want the permissions to be deleted from all lists within the site(s) that have unique permissions, check the Propagate to All Lists with Unique Permissions box.
5If you have checked the Propagate to All Lists with Unique Permissions box and want the permissions to be deleted from all items within the list(s) that have unique permissions, check the Propagate to List Items box.
NOTE: The "Propagate" options do not apply to lists that you selected explicitly. If you want to include items within explicitly-selected lists, use the Include Children or Choose option in the Selection panel. See also Selecting List Items on Which to Perform a ControlPoint Operation.
Now you can:
·run the operation immediately (by clicking the [Run Now] button)
OR
·complete the Enforce Policy section and schedule the operation to run at a later time.
OR
·save the operation as XML Instructions that can be run at a later time.
If you chose the Run Now, option, after the operation has been processed:
·a confirmation message displays at the top of the page, and

TIP: If your Available Items list is particularly long, you may find it useful to narrow the scope by searching based on Group name, site Name, and/or site URL) and searching for the group.
CAUTION: Because SharePoint groups are defined at the site collection level and may be used anywhere in the site collection, if you are performing the action on one or more individual sites that includes groups that are used elsewhere in the site collection, the groups will be deleted from unselected sites within the collection as well.
b)When you have finished adding groups to the Selected Items list, click [Apply].

ControlPoint Manage SharePoint Groups is a farm-level action that lets you propagate the permissions and membership of a SharePoint group on one site with groups on one or more different sites in the same farm. You can either:
·overwrite the membership and permissions of an existing group (but retain the group's name)
EXCEPTION: Permissions of a group within a list, folder, or item that has unique (non-inherited) permissions will not be changed.
OR
·create a new group with the same name, membership, and permissions as the model group.
ControlPoint Group Management Terminology
Association - The relationship between the SharePoint group whose permissions and membership you want to propagate and all of the groups to which you want to propagate them.
Model Group -The SharePoint group whose permissions and membership you want to propagate.
Dependent Group(s) - The SharePoint group(s) to which you are propagating the membership and permissions of the model group. You "adopt" a new dependent group when you add it to an association.
Synchronize - The act of propagating permissions and membership of a model group to its dependent groups. Whenever you synchronize groups within an association, the existing permissions and/or membership of dependent groups are overwritten with those of the model group.
NOTE: Synchronization is a one-way process (that is, model to dependents only). Although changes to model groups are not automatically propagated to dependent groups, you can schedule a synchronization to run on a regular basis to ensure that model and dependent groups remain in sync. You can choose to synchronize the permissions of the model group only, the group's membership only, or both permissions and membership.
In a multi-farm environment, SharePoint groups can be managed for a single farm; either the home farm or a remote farm.
To access the Manage SharePoint Groups workspace:
From the farm or Web Application level of the SharePoint Hierarchy, choose Automation > Manage SharePoint Groups.
The top grid lists all existing associations with the following information:
·the Association Name
·a link that enables you to Edit the Association Name.
·the model Group Name
·the Group Description (as specified in SharePoint Group Settings page)
·the Site Name and Site URL where the model group resides
·Permissions associated with the group
·the # of Users with Permissions for the group
·a Details link that lets you open the SharePoint People and Groups page for the model group.
When you select a group in the top grid, the bottom grid lists all of the dependent groups in the association, along with the following information:
·the dependent Group Name
·the Site Name and Site URL where the dependent group resides
·the Adoption Date (that is, the date the dependent group was added to the association)
·a View Details link that lets you open the SharePoint People and Groups page for the dependent group.
Now you can:
·Associate a SharePoint Group from One Site with Other Sites
·Maintain SharePoint Group Associations
·Dissolve Group Associations and/or Delete SharePoint Groups.
