Add Managed Unit to Self Service Site

Question

Hello, 
 Can someone tell me how to add a managed unit to self-service webportal in ARS? 
 I also need to add the search option to the self-service site. 
 Any assistance is appreciated. 
 I have both 6.9 and 7 that i use to manage separate domains. 
 We plan to move to 7 for the other but have not got there yet. 
 Thank you, 
 Lu

The challenge with what you are trying to do is that you are effectively moving from the Self Service Site's paradigm of a view of an individual user's details to the object browsing view offered by the "full" sites. 
 
The "quickest", most supportable way to get there would be to take a copy of the Admin or Help Desk site and, using the built-in customization capabilities, remove those elements you don't need. You could even keep your Self Service site and just add a link to this custom site from its home page. Yes, it's tedious and a bit clumsy but it will get you there. 
 
I believe the alternative would get you into making invasive site modifications to your Self Service site that you may find don't tolerate upgrades well. 
 
My 2 cents.

I would suggest you use the edsvaPublished virual attribute to include groups in your MU. Stamp this to TRUE on groups you want in there and then reference this virtual attribute in your membership rule. 
 The next part is setting the delegation on the MU. 
 You want to make the Primary Owner as the Trustee (this is an AR built-in object/alias) - you can find in the AR object picker and then select the "Self - Group Management" access template (found under the User Self Management category of pre-defined Access Templates) to grant the Owner access.

This should get you down the path you want.
