titleBulk actions permissions

You can edit sections in the bulk actions side panel according to your permissions. For information about permissions in User Admin, see Accessing and finding your way around User Admin.

The Edit User permission allows you to edit the User status (Active/Archive) and Agent Settingssettings sections.

User filtering

When you open a particular section in the bulk actions side panel, any users that the settings cannot be applied to are filtered out. For example, opening Agent settings filters users who do not act as agents, as you can only apply agent settings to agents, and supervisors, or admins, who also act as agents. The number of users that the settings will be applied to is shown in the badge next to the section title.
