Agreed.
Also it would be helpful when you look on the client, Help and support > troubleshooting, that it would show the full path to group the computer belongs to.

Hello,
I do would like to be able to change to my institution, so that it looks more professional specially SEP clients are installed on top/senior mangament computers.

Sincerely thank you!

This has been a bone of contention since it went from Global to My Company. I've never understood why it was changed in the first place. In any case I agree with the idea of making this a variable field thus allowing the end use to pick the root name.
Agreed.
What's the problem? A Symantec Employee has posted elsewhere that this fix was in the works. Supposed to be out in the next release. So what's the excuse?
