Add Users by Department

This dialog allows you to add users to a specific group based on their department membership. The title bar of the dialog displays the name of the target group (e.g., Add users to "GroupName" by Department).

Dialog Elements

  • Department: Drop-down list for selecting an existing department. Only departments that have at least one user assigned are displayed. When you change the selection, both lists below are automatically updated.
  • Department members in the Group: This list (left) shows all users of the selected department who are already assigned to the target group.
  • Other Department members: This list (right) shows all users of the selected department who are not yet assigned to the target group.
  • < (left arrow): Moves the user selected in the right list into the group (from Other Department members to Department members in the Group). This button is only enabled when a user is selected in the right list.
  • > (right arrow): Removes the user selected in the left list from the group (from Department members in the Group to Other Department members). This button is only enabled when a user is selected in the left list.
  • OK: Applies the changes and closes the dialog.
  • Cancel: Discards all changes and closes the dialog.
