Description
Steps to reproduce
- configure groups mapping from IdP
- modify group on the admin UI
- on next login, groups are overwritten by IdP
Expected behaviour
It would be nice to deactivate group management in Nc admin UI.
Actual behaviour
Group management is activated and not "working". If you change group of a person, it will be overwritten the next time this person logs in.

Research direction
Start by tracing the admin UI group-management flow alongside the SAML groups mapping configuration described in the reproduction steps. The change is done when group management can be deactivated for SAML-mapped groups, preventing admin changes from being overwritten on the next login.
