You can manage your tenants' members and participants using HR import. This is done using the User HR import source and the tenantmember and tenantparticipant columns. These columns contain the tenant ID(s) of the tenants for which each user should be a participant or member.
To remove a tenant member and add them as a tenant participant, follow these steps:
- Include the tenant member (tenantmember) and tenant participant (tenantparticipant) columns in the HR import file.
- Add a blank value in the tenant member (tenantmember) column.
- Add the comma-separated list of tenant ID(s) in the tenant participant (tenantparticipant) column.
- Upload the file following the HR import instructions.
Ensure that the user element setting Empty string behaviour in CSV is set to CSV Empty strings erase existing data. To ensure that data is not unintentionally deleted you will need to check that all required fields have values in the HR import file.
