Group Cloning or Group Merging is the process of creating a new group and adding users from other existing groups.

You can start by creating a new group and then adding people from any other group by using the Group filter. If you already have a group created, the Group Setting option can be used that same way. Once everyone is added to the new main group the other groups can remain as is or can be removed by deleting the groups.
