Special features
- Title
- The last column does not have to exist in the input file. However, it can be omitted from all other columns.
- Groups
- Several groups are separated by commas. If a user group does not exist in the target, the group is not assigned. **If the user has an authorization group that is not assigned to the user in the file, the user group is removed from the user profile.
- Folder
- The folder parameter contains the client as a default value (as specified by the info.UserRead module) as a first level qualifier
<client>/folder/folder. This must be observed if the source and target client do not match. In this case, a folder with the name of the source client would be created in the target client.
