Do new Group creation gets captured in an update set or not?

[HrishabhKumar]

I have to create a new Group, new Role and a user criteria. And I want to capture that in an update set, but somehow that is not working.

What I have done:

1) create an update set, make it current.

2) create a group in sys_user_group table.

But the creation is not captured in my update set.

Questions:

1) Are groups captured in an update set?

2) If yes, what am i doing wrong?

Creating a role! I think it is captured, right?

Yes, due to the attribute as mentioned.

@HrishabhKumar 

creation of role is captured because of update_synch=true attribute

Also role is not data. Role helps you to restrict table, modules etc so it doesn't fit into data as it's crucial in access control.

If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.
