How is a group defined in ServiceNow?

The `Group Type [sys_user_group_type]` table defines categories for groups, not individual groups themselves.

ServiceNow manages groups as records in the `sys_user_group` table. Each record in this table represents a distinct group, which can then have users and roles associated with it for various platform functions like assignment and access control.

While users in a group might share the same location, this is not the fundamental definition of a group in ServiceNow; groups are defined structurally as records.

Users in a group might share job titles, but this is a characteristic of some groups, not the technical definition of how a group is stored and managed within the platform.
