Parameters:

companyId - the primary key of the company

name - the group's name (optionally null)

description - the group's description (optionally null)

params - the finder params (optionally null). To include the user's inherited organizations and user groups in the search, add entries having "usersGroups" and "inherit" as keys mapped to the the user's ID. For more information see GroupFinder.

end - the upper bound of the range of groups to return (not inclusive)

Returns:

the matching groups ordered by name
