Bulk assign access controls to new users

Streamlined completion of imported user accounts.Your user account creation workflow is now more efficient with the ability to assign the same access controls to up to 25 imported user accounts in one action. The accounts must have been created using the Import users workflow, and have a status of Incomplete.

To access this new workflow, your organization must be configured to use our federated authentication, LDAP, or Mediaocean platform security, and you must have permission to maintain users. Remember that when you update a user account, you can only apply details that allow the same, or a lower level of access than your own user account. 

On the Administration module's Users list page:

1. Select the check box for each Incomplete user that you want to apply the same role and access groups to.
   Note: The check box can only be selected for user accounts with a status of Incomplete.
2. Click (the Change button).  
3. In the Change dialog, enter the details you want to apply to all the selected user accounts.
4. Click Save. The user accounts are updated with the details. The account status is set to Inactive, and an automated notification email is sent to each user, instructing them to activate their account. 

Once a user account is updated using this workflow, any further updates to the user accounts must be done individually as the account status is no longer Incomplete.
