Edge Import - Group Membership Load - Remove Inactive Users from Static Groups

When loading a Group Membership file via Edge Import, the Remove action can now remove "User is" criteria from the Group Criteria of a static group when the referenced user is inactive. Before this enhancement, attempting to remove those criteria would have generated an error.

This enhancement applies to static Groups, which are Groups that only contain "User is" criteria. Edge Import Group Membership loads still cannot be used to update combination Groups, which are Groups that contain both static and dynamic criteria, or dynamic Groups, which are Groups that contain only dynamic criteria.

Group Membership never includes inactive users and it is still not possible to add a "User is" criteria to a static Group if the referenced user is inactive.

Note: If the “User is” criteria references multiple users, Edge will not remove just one referenced user (either active or inactive) from within that string.

  • Example: User is Smith, John (jsmith), [ Thomas, Darron (dthomas) (Inactive) ], Roger, Seth (sroger)

Implementation

This functionality is automatically enabled for existing Edge Import customers. The Template Guide in Edge Import will be updated to reflect this enhancement.
