Creates a permission group and returns it. Add members with Move a member to a permission group.
Permission groups decide what members can do. Each member belongs to one group; the team owner can do everything. Teams start with groups such as Super Admin, Shop Manager, Sales Team, Shop Floor Team and Accounting Team. Creating, changing and deleting groups needs a plan with advanced permission management; moving a member to another group doesn't.
