Repeating Permissions
Greetings everyone,
I am new to SP online and am curious about what I am calling repeating permissions. I can't find information concerning this issue and am wondering how to fix. Please see the attached photo.
Thanks in advance,
Adam

acarey2748 we need some more info about that screen shot, when you click on one them, what is shown? is this an account created in Active Directory or an Office Group, we can't tell from this image.
Dean_Gross So, on this SP team site, I have the default site permission groups of Full Control, Design, Edit, Contribute, and Read. I created three other permission levels of Stores - Contribute, Stores - Full Control, and Stores - Read because I wanted to modify a few permissions. The screen shot I attached is what I am seeing now, as if SP is populating these permission levels.
- Sorry, but I still don't have enough information to identify the root cause of the issue.
You are talking about Permission Levels, these are different from Groups.
Permission Levels bundle together individual permissions so that they can be assigned consistently.
Groups get assigned Permission Levels and contain accounts
Something is creating all of those SharePoint Groups and assigning them to the Edit permission level, it could be a script associate with site creation process, powershell or a Flow,
- Is there any scheduled job running? Could see see these user/group within O365?
Nitesh Ranjan I have not set up any jobs in O365. Is there a way to check?
acarey2748 Could you see these groups in O365 admin center.
