Keep your users on their important Team(s) but remove them from ones you specify.
This article applies to Team and Legacy editions.
During Delta testing and tester management, you may find it necessary to reorganize the Teams your users are currently on, as your needs and testing program change over time. A sample example of this would that if you need users on your Testers Team to no longer be on the Applicants and No Access Teams, but remain on their other useful Teams.
In order to accomplish this, the Centercode platform offers the ability to quickly create and run Macro automation to remove users from select Teams in the User Management tool.
It's required that you're familiar with these Centercode functions that are used widely across your Centercode implementation before continuing: Team Access Control, Macros, and Filters before continuing.
In this article, you will:
- Access User Management
- Create your Macro
- Create a Filter to target your users
- Select and execute your Macro
