How do I allow certain user/groups to use certain usb devices/groups on certain computers/groups of computers

Excuse the cross-post from Sophos Central, I wasn't sure where the right place to ask this question would be.

 

In the below scenario, how do I allow User02 to use USB03 only on endpoints in EndPtGroupB?  This is in Central and not On-Prem Endpoint.  I can move the discussion if needed.

 

  • UserGroupA = User01 & User02
  • UserGroupB = User03 & User04
  • DvcGroupA = USB01 & USB02
  • DvcGroupB = USB03 & USB04 
  • EndPtGroupA = EndPt01 & EndPt02
  • EndPtGroupB = EndPt03 & EndPt04

    Edit EndPtGroupB > Click Policies > Click Peripheral Control Policy > Select Users  > Now move the " User02 " to the " Assigned users list "

    Now Click Settings > Make sure your " USB03 "  is added in Peripheral Exemptions. 

    That's it. Policy should be bypassed. Peripheral Control Policy should be a " User Based Policy ". However, the policy will be on top which overrides the below policy and i think that will not make any sense.
