Removing users from a workgroup

For more information, see “Adding users to a workgroup” above. - Delete the user from the system.
For more information, see "Deleting user accounts".
Deleting workgroups
You can delete any workgroup except the domain's default workgroup. When the domain is first created, the default workgroup is set to staff.
We recommend that you move all of the users out of the workgroup before you delete the workgroup.
To delete a workgroup
1. Set the domain to the one whose workgroups you want to delete. For more information, see “Setting the current domain”
2. In the navigation pane, click Workgroups.
The Workgroups page appears.
3. Click the checkbox next to each of the workgroups that you want to delete; only the workgroups with checkmarks will be deleted. The number on the Delete Selected button changes to reflect the number of workgroups that you selected.
4. Click Delete Selected.
A dialog box appears that asks you to confirm that you want to delete the selected workgroups.
5. Optionally, in the Delete Workgroups dialog, click the checkbox to select the Cascade option, which deletes any users that are in the workgroup. If you don't select this option, and there are users in the workgroup, the delete operation will fail.
6. Click Delete.
