Self Help Article (External)
Intended Audience: Staff, Faculty, Students, Student Workers
Purpose
This self-help article will assist end users in understanding how to remove members or owners of global groups within the IDMS system.
A global group owner has the ability to manage various attributes of a global group, including adding or removing members and updating group details. However, owners are not automatically members of the group—they must be added separately if membership is required.
Membership in a global group is assigned in one of two ways:
- Automatically based on employment or student data in the IDMS system.
- Manually by a designated global group owner.
Members who are automatically assigned cannot be removed because they meet the criteria of the global group.
Requirements
The user of this article must have an active IDMS account and be an owner of a Global Group in order to successfully accomplish the following procedures.
