Changing the Organization to which a User Belongs
You can change the organization attribute for users using the Participant Administration utility (if you have write permission to the directory service) or by using a third party tool that allows your site to modify user entries in your directory service. Changing the organization attribute by using the Participant Administration utility automatically changes the other organization-related information for users. However, changing this attribute by using a third party tool does not change the other organization-related information for users.
If you change the organization affiliation of a user, the domain and personal cabinet of the user are automatically updated to reflect the change (by default). When the site preference named Synchronize Domains for User Organization Changes is set to true and the organization of a user changes, the user domain and the domain of the user’s personal cabinet are reassigned to the new organization root domain. Additionally, the organization groups that are associated with the context teams for which the user is a member, are updated. The user is removed from the group for the old organization and added to the group for the new organization.
If this preference is set to false, the site administrator will have to manually execute the OrgSync command line utility to perform the update after using a third party tool to change a user’s organization. For more information on using this utility, see Using the OrganizationSync Utility for User Organization Changes.
You can turn off this automatic update through the Synchronize Domains for User Organization Changes preference that is under the Display category.
For more information about preferences, see Administering Preferences.
