Would it be possible to create a user group and use it as an exclusion rule in all Assignments Profi

Dear All,

We have a group of users who must remain active on the platform, but must not receive any learning assignments.

This list of users changes from time to time.

Would it be possible to create a user group and use it as an exclusion rule in all Assignments Profiles? This way, when the list of users changed, we would not need to enter each Assignments Profile to adjust manually, only the group in question.

Kind Regards

Hi!

Typically, you are using an assignment profile to create your user groups. And I don't see a mechanism (at least not in my system) to include or exclude a user group within the assignment profile rules.

An idea though - could you create a user custom field for this? For example, if the custom field was named, Training Exemption (Yes, No, Blank or whatever you want to enter here, though I recommend a referenced field) - then you would be able to capture whether or not that user fit the criteria - and use it as an inclusion/exclusion in Assignment Profiles.

Hello marimcguir, Thank you for your response! The company will implement EC in 2025. Only then will it be possible to insert the custom field and use it as an exclusion rule in Assignments Profiles. In the meantime, I also don't see any other solution than to maintain a list of users separately from the system and include it as a removal criteria in each AP. Kind Regards Carolina Faria

@carolinafaria Hi! We have several user custom fields in our instance, and we also do not have EC. So, there are options there, even without EC.
