When you edit multiple user and group accounts, you can compare the differences between those accounts. This helps you quickly determine which properties need to change for each account. In most cases, you can change properties as you compare changes. For example, you can edit several users, compare their role assignments for specific projects, and then change those assignments for all of the users or for individual users.
To compare settings for multiple user or group accounts:
-
Select one or more accounts.
Tip: To select accounts on multiple pages, use the CTRL or SHIFT keys to select users or groups on one page, and then use the navigation buttons at the bottom of each page to move to other pages. Use the CTRL or SHIFT keys to select users or groups on these pages. A count of selected accounts is available at the bottom of the Users view.
