Sequence: Set First • Set Last • Go To Current

This list shows the sequence used to determine the order in which this User Group will be evaluated by the exit point programs.

For example, if there are three User Rules with User Groups for a specific Server/Function, and all three have USER1 as a member, then the User Rule at the top of this list will be used by the exit programs (if a User Rule with the specific user name of 'USER1' is not found).

Click Set First to move the current User Group to the top of the list.

Click Set Last to move the current User Group to the bottom of the list.

Click Go To Current to automatically scroll the list so that the currently selected group is visible.

TIP: Click and drag the User Group to quickly change its position in the list.
Members: Remove Member • Add Member • Decline Member Changes • Search

This section lists the members of the User Group, and allows you to add and remove profiles to the User Group.

Select one or more members and choose Remove Member to remove the profile from the User Group.

Click Add Member to open the Select User screen where you can select one or more profiles to add to the User Group.

Click Decline Member Changes to remove all profiles added to the membership list during this session (i.e. that have not been applied to the database).

Type a profile name, or a portion of a profile name, into the Search field to subset the list of available profiles.
