Who would you like to update?
This section provides the filtering of which users you would like to update.
- Specify groups allows you to include users that fall under a certain Country, Location, Team, or any other Group type.
- Specify user templates can be used to include all users from the specified template in this update.
- Include reportees and leavers gives you two boxes you can check to ensure your own reportees are included, and any leavers that fall under the view are included.
- You're then able to specify individuals; you can start typing a user's name to search for them, then click add, and they'll be included in the list for this update. You can add any number of individual users.
- Finally, you can view a list of users who you've included in this update, and, if you'd like, you can click Remove to exclude any specific individuals from the update.
Once you have made the required selections, click the Update Users button.
