  4. Enter the email address of the person you want to add to the group.

    Info

    Make sure the email address you enter is correct. The CSSI DCC Portal informs you if you make a syntax error in the email address. However, if the email address is syntactically correct but not the intended recipient's correct address, the wrong person may receive an invitation to register.

  5. Select a role for the person, either Owner or Member. If you created the group, you are automatically an owner. Note that it is a best practice to have only one owner in a group; if you share ownership, the other owner could accidentally delete you.

  6. Click Submit. The response from the system depends on whether the CSSI DCC Portal already has a user account for that email address (in another group): 

    • If so, the system sends the following email notifications: 

      • To each owner of the group, an email notification with "CSSI DCC User Granted Access to your Group" as the subject line. 

      • To the email address you specified, an email notification with "You have been added to a CSSI DCC group" as the subject line. 

    • Otherwise, the system sends the following email notifications: 

      • To each owner of the group, an email notification with "New CSSI DCC User Created for your Group" as the subject line. 

      • To the email address you specified, email notifications with "You have been added to a CSSI DCC group" and "CSSI DCC Portal Account Activation" as the subject lines. The latter message prompts that person to complete the account activation. The activation process involves specifying a password for the new account, after which the system sends that user an email notification with "CSSI DCC Portal Password Changed" as the subject line.

Removing Users from a Group

Removing a user from a group does not remove that user from any other groups.

  1. On the My Groups page, select the group that the user belongs to.
    The page expands to show the Group Members section.
  2. Select the user you want to remove from that group.
  3. Click Remove User. A confirmation message appears.
  4. Click OK to confirm the removal. The system sends the following email notifications: 
    • To each owner of the group, a notification with "CSSI DCC User Removed from your Group" as the subject line. 
    • To the user whose account has been removed from the group, a notification with "You have been Removed from a CSSI DCC Group" as the subject line.

Changing Group Membership

  1. Create a group.
  2. Add a member to the group.

  6. Select Owner or Member as needed and click Submit. The change takes place immediately. The system sends the following email notifications:

    • To each owner of the group, a notification with "CSSI DCC User Granted Access to your Group" as the subject line.
