User and Group Security - Edit a User

There could be several scenarios where a user's details will need to be edited. These may include:

  • If a user's details have been incorrectly entered into the system.
  • If a user needs to be moved to a different User Group.
  • You may also need to enable or disable a User Login if, for example, an employee leaves.

The user must log out of BPO2 and back in for the changes to take effect.
