DocKIT takes the NTFS security permissions of the folders/files and maps it to a default set of site groups in the destination site. The user can customize the NTFS permission to site group mapping, which will be applied to all users/groups in the list. For each NTFS permissions set for user/group, the user/group will be added to the appropriate site group. In other words, each user/group will be added to multiple site groups based on the NTFS-> Site Group mapping information. Alternately, the user running DocKIT can assign the relevant site groups for each user/group listed in the source folders/files.
