Overview of users: adjust the view, apply filters, export data, and purge user's records

Introduction

The Users page is the area in the Learn365 Admin Center where catalog admins have a variety of options to view and manage users of the current catalog. The columns of the page can be configured, and filters can be used for admins to find users who apply to certain criteria. Also, reports can be downloaded from this page.

In this guide, we provide you with an overview of how to configure the columns of this page, how to apply filters to the Users page to distinguish users according to the selected parameters, and what type of reports that can be downloaded from the Users page.

Edit columns of the Users page

The Users page contains data on the users of the current catalog displayed in columns.

To select, customize, or edit the columns of the Users page, the catalog admin will follow the steps:

1. In the Learn365 Admin Center, from the left-navigation menu, select Users.

2. On the Users page, from the More drop-down list, select Edit view columns.

  • Edit titles of the selected columns. To customize the name of a column, first, add the column to the Selected Columns section. Next, in the field with the column name, introduce changes.

4. To save the changes, select Save. To close the panel without saving, select the close icon.

 

Filter data on the Users page

Required role: catalog admin.

Filter data by columns

You can filter the information on the Users page by its columns, and then download the results to your device by selecting Export. 

There are several ways to filter data on this page:

  • Use the Search field on the menu bar. Here, you can search for any of the information that's displayed in the columns, including custom columns. For example, by the city of the user.
  • Each column has its own filter with selection options.
  • Use the filter icon next to the Name column to call out a search field.
  • Select the column name to sort the data in alphabetical order (ascending A-Z or descending Z-A) or in numerical order (ascending or descending), or select the relevant checkbox in the column filter.
  • In some columns, data can be filtered by empty values. For example, by No job title. For this, select the relevant checkbox.

You can filter data on the page using filters of multiple columns at the same time. For example, you can filter users by manager and country to see users in the catalog who are located in a certain country and have a certain manager.

All users who are given access to the current course catalog, or a course or training plan within it, are displayed on the Users page.

If users were enrolled directly in a specific course or training plan in the course catalog as a learner but weren't added to the course catalog via the Add or Invite User(s) function on the Users panel, they'll be included in the Users list with a special icon next to their nameicon.png. In this case, users will have access only to this course or training plan. They won't have access to course catalog page or any other courses and training plans in the course catalog.

 

NOTE  

The user won't be listed on the Users page if they enrolled in a course or training plan as a course admin, session instructor, or a supervisor, but weren't previously added as a user via the Add or Invite User(s) feature, and they don't have the role of the learner in the course catalog.

 

If the relevant user isn't listed in the current catalog, you can switch to another catalog using the course catalog selector. You can view and select only those catalogs to which you have access.

The All Catalogs option is available for catalog admins who have an additional role of LMS admin, Microsoft 365 global admin, or SharePoint admin. Selecting All Catalogs redirects you to the Course Catalog Management page of the Learn365 Admin Center.

The course catalog selector uses cache memory so it might show course catalogs that you no longer have permissions to view. In this case, you'll be denied access to the course catalog. To resolve this issue, clear the cache and refresh the page.

Filter by date range

To filter users, according to the courses and training plans they are enrolled in, that are started and not yet ended within a set date range, follow the steps:

1. On the Filter by Course(s) & Training Plan(s) panel, select Date Range.

2. From the opened Date Range panel, select the start and end dates from the calendar. The present date on the calendar is marked blue.

 

calendar_date_range.png

 

To reset the applied date range filter, select the close icon near the Date Range filter.

In the Courses & Training plans column, you'll see the filtered course and training plans according to the set date range.

The filtered result of the courses and training plans depends on the type of course and training plan. 

 

For e-learning courses and training plans the filtered result depends on the start and end dates of the course or training plan and will include courses and training plans that live up to the following criteria:

  • Both the start and end dates of the course or training plan are within the set Date Range.
  • The start date of the course or training plan is within the set Date Range and the course or training plan doesn't have the end date set.
  • The course or training plan doesn't have the start date set, but the end date is within the set Date Range
  • The course or training plan doesn't have the start or end date set.

The filtered result won't include courses and training plans that:

  • Are unpublished.
  • Have a start date earlier than the start date of the Date Range filter and the end date within the set Date Range of the filter.
  • Have a start date within the set Date Range and an end date later than the set Date Range.
  • Have start and end dates outside of the set Date Range.

For instructor-led training, the filtered result depends on the start and end dates of the sessions (standalone or within groups) in the course. A course will be returned in the results when at least one session (standalone or within groups) in the course has both start and end dates within the set Date Range.

The filtered result won't include courses that don't have standalone sessions or session groups with sessions.

3. Under the Course & Training Plans column, from the list of the filtered courses and training plans, select the relevant courses or training plans to further filter learners. To select all courses and training plans, select the Name checkbox.

4. Select Filter.

The users will be filtered accordingly. All learners who are enrolled in the selected courses will be shown on the Users panel, regardless of the standalone sessions or session groups for which they're registered. This is also the case if the learners are enrolled in the course, but aren't registered for any standalone session or session group.

You can download the filtered users from the Users panel to your device by selecting Export. The report will display information in the language of your browser, if this language is supported by Learn365. Otherwise, it will be displayed in English (United States).

  • Find learners who are enrolled in one or more courses and training plans that grant one or more particular skills.

Understand whether users on the page have access to the course catalog 

Required role: catalog admin.

Sometimes users listed on the Users page have been enrolled in a specific course or training plan in the course catalog as a learner but haven't been added to the course catalog via the Add or Invite User(s) function on the Users page. In this case, this user will only have access to the course or training plan in question, not the course catalog page or other courses and training plans in the course catalog.

To mark, whether this is the case for a user, these users will have an icon next to their name icon.png on the Users page.

The user won't be listed on the Users page if they aren't added to the Users page of the course catalog but only added to the course or training plan as a course admin, session instructor, or a supervisor and don't have the role of the learner in the course catalog.
