Administrators remove users from the system from the Remove Users from the System page. Removed users cannot be restored to the system. To replace a removed user, create a new profile for the user and enroll the user in the appropriate Courses and Organizations. A removed user that is recreated will not retain any of the settings or data associated with the old user record.
Click Remove Users from the System from the Users section of the System Control Panel.
The Remove Users from the System page contains a search function at the top of the page. The following search tabs are available on the Remove Users from the System page:
· Search: Click Last Name, User Name, or Email and enter a value. A list of users in the course with that last name, user name or email address will appear.
· A-Z, 0-9: Click the letter or number that represents the first character of a last name. A list of all users with a last name that begins with that character will appear.
· Advanced: Enter text in the Containing field to search for users that have that text in their name or User Name. If desired, select Active within the past . . . and enter a number to search only for users that have NOT been active in the system for that number of days prior. The search can also be limited based on number of courses by selecting Enrolled in . . . , selecting a control from the drop-down list (more than or exactly) and then entering a value in the field.
· List All: Click List All to view all users in the system.
Click the check box for each user to be removed. Type ‘Yes’ in the entry field at the bottom of the page and click Submit. The selected users will be removed from the system.
Note: Removing users will also remove any course or organization data associated with the user (including grades!). If a user is created again, course and organization data will not reappear.
