New Multi-Person Access Assignment
Overview
Warning: This feature should only be used by someone with proper BluSKY experience. Mistakes can cause significant issues.
Using the Multi-Person Access Feature
Navigate to the Person screen. (Main Menu-> Administration-> People).
Enter your search criteria as needed and click to populate the Person List. Once the list populates, select all the people whose access you want to change by clicking on them once. Be careful not to double click a person, this will de-select all the previously selected people and open the single person edit screen.
Once you have selected everyone you want to modify, click the button to open the Multi-Person Access dialog, with three options to adding and removing access.
Information: By selecting the count button in the upper left corner of the screen you will select/de-select all rows. This is a huge time saver.
Information: When removing access is it OK to have people in the list that do not have the access being removed. This makes is easy to remove access from an occupancy where some people have access and some do not have access.
