Bulk Update Group (Site) Access allows Business Administrators to add or remove Group access for multiple users at once in the Admin Portal.
Group access is controlled by Division IDs, and changes apply immediately to live user accounts. If Group access is removed or must take effect immediately, you must force log out affected users to clear their session context.
Supervisor alignment rules are strictly enforced: a Supervisor must belong to at least one Group shared with their direct report, or the update will fail.
