As official groups change to match current department names and structures, you may need to periodically update your composite groups.

 

  1. Find the composite group in CalGroups
    1. Use the search bar to locate it.
  2. Open the group
    1. Click the composite group name.
  3. Edit the composite
    1. In the upper-right corner, select “More Actions” → “Edit Composite”.
    2. First Factor Group: Leave this as is.
    3. Operation: Keep it the same.
    4. Second Factor Group: Change this to the new official group.
  4. Save your changes
    1. Click Save.

If the composite group is not part of any other groups or is no longer needed, you may decide if it’s still necessary and choose whether to keep it.
