Good day Jude,
after creating the Users and the Samba share, the next thing to do in order to have the users get access to the created share, say: temp, is to configure the share.
In the General tab, make sure Domain Users is selected for the directory owner group. This is the default group every created user belongs to. You do this if you want user to have access to the share. If you are specific about who gets access to the share, then go to step 3 and 4. Else step 5.
Enter the names of the users intended or group in the valid user or group field.The entries are to be separated by spaces. The special characters @, + and & can be used in connection with the group name for assigning certain
permissions to the users of the stated group for accessing the Samba share.
Under extended permissions you can fine tune the permissions settings
Further changes and configurations can be made as desired.
I believe the documentation below will be of help to you:

Thanks Anna for getting back.
Can you please tell me is that same steps apply for Ubuntu also.
Cos all i need is to have a common file share for all ubuntu users.
Appreciate your help on this.

Good Morning Jeromejoe,
This steps above are for configuring shares solely on UCS. If the Computers (Ubuntu Machines) are members of the UCS domain then they can access the shares. You can create a share, and a group called say Ubuntu users and give them access to the share following the steps above.
If you want to configure the shares on an Ubuntu System, then it has to be done manually.
