    Is it possible to mass remove a role in Lawson Security?  We have over 3500 users that have it and only about 50 or so should.

      You can mass add a role using Resource Management Administrator using Tools > Mass Assignment, but I'm not aware of a way to mass remove through standard Lawson tools. 

      One approach would be to export all users and roles, remove the roles from the file, then reload.  LDAP tools may also be able to do this.  Another possibility is developing a custom processflow.

        I know of no way to mass remove. I like the suggestions from Brian. One other possibility would be to create a new role with the same security, assign it to the 50 who need it, and remove everything from the old role.

          Thanks!  That was my backup plan if there wasn't a mass removal.  I duplicated the Role and removed all classes from the other. We can look into a process flow to clean it up later.
