You can optionally also add a description for the new group.

specify where you want the new group to be placed using the Add New Group
To list. The default location is your directory's root point, or top-most entry.

add the group and immediately return to the New Group form. Alternatively,
click Create and Edit Group to add the group and then proceed to the Edit
