in the online help.

Adding Groups to the Group Members List

You can add groups (instead of individual members) to the group's members list.
Doing so causes any users belonging to the included group to become a member of
the receiving group. For example, if Bob Smith is a member of the Engineering
Managers group, and you make the Engineering Managers group a member of the
Engineering Personnel group, then Bob Smith is also a member of the Engineering
Personnel group.
To add a group to the members list of another group, add the group as if it were a
user entry. For more information, see "Adding Group Members," on page 77.
