# Adding Groups
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
By default, Data Controller will work with the SAS Groups defined in Viya, Metadata, or SASjs Server. It is also possible to define custom groups with Data Controller itself - to do this simply add the user and group name (and optionally, a group description) in the `DATACTRL.MPE_GROUPS` table.

## Data Controller Admin Group
|
|
|
|
When configuring Data Controller for the first time, a group is designated as the 'admin' group. This group has unrestricted access to Data Controller. To change this group, modify the `%let dc_admin_group=` entry in the settings program, located as follows:
|
|
|
|
* **SAS Viya:** $(appLoc)/services/settings.sas
|
|
* **SAS 9:** $(appLoc)/services/public/Data_Controller_Settings
|
|
* **SASjs Server:** $(appLoc)/services/public/settings.sas
|
|
|
|
|
|
To prevent others from changing this group, ensure the Data Controller appLoc (deployment folder) is write-protected - eg RM (metadata) or using Viya Authorisation rules.
