Delegates Update Modes

Various functions in Symprex Folder Permissions Manager allow delegates to be updated in bulk:

•The Group Apply Wizard.

•Templates (configured using the Manage Templates dialog and applied using the Apply Template Wizard).

How the delegates are updated is determined by the mode chosen. The following sections describe those modes with examples of how the delegates will be changed.

Note: For clarity, the individual folder permissions assigned to each delegate are not shown.
