ProcedureTo Edit a Resource Using Resource List Commands

In addition to the Edit Resource Wizard, you can use the Resource List commands to perform a range of edit actions on a resource.

  1. Choose one or more options from the Resource List.

    These options include:

    • Delete resources. Select one or more resources, and then select Delete from the Resource Actions list. You can select resources of several types at the same time. You cannot delete a resource if any roles or resource groups are associated with it.

    • Search for resource objects. Select a resource, and then select Find Resource Object from the Resource Object Actions list to find a resource object (such as an organization, organizational unit, group, or person) by object characteristics.

    • Manage resource objects. For some resource types, you can create new objects. Select the resource, and then select Create Resource Object from the Resource Object Actions list.

    • Rename resources. Select a resource, and then select Rename from the Resource Actions list. Enter a new name in the entry box that appears, and then click Rename.

    • Clone resources. Select a resource, and then select Save As from the Resource Actions list. Enter a new name in the entry box that appears. The cloned resource appears in the resource list with the name you select.

    • Perform bulk operations on resources. Specify a list of resources and actions to apply (from CSV-formatted input) to all resources in the list. Then launch bulk operations to initiate the bulk-operation background task.

  2. Save your changes.
