Which security group type is used to identify third-party users?

The security group type that identifies third-party users is referred to as an external user group. This type of group is specifically designed to encompass users who are not direct employees of the organization but need access to the system, typically for collaboration or service-related purposes. External user groups facilitate the management of permissions and setup for third-party individuals, ensuring they have the appropriate level of access without being part of the internal employee security framework.

In contrast, service centers primarily refer to internal support structures that assist both employees and external clients but do not directly categorize third-party users. Third-party access groups are not a standard designation in the context of security groups within Workday. Lastly, a contractor group is tailored for individuals who may be on a direct contract with the organization, while external user groups distinctly identify third-party users and their access needs.
