Curtin University in Perth, Australia ( https://www.curtin.edu.au/ )
would like to contribute a recent enhancement they applied to the User
CSV bulk upload.

Background: The university would like a mechanism to bulk move students
recently graduated to an alumni institution.


Modify the ‘Add people by CSV’ screen with the following:
1. Repurpose the drop-down list of institution and authentication method:
▪ The screen currently has a list of authentication drop-down. But, if updating a user, they must belong to the institution with that authentication. Remove this restriction and change logic so it's to "move" user to the new institution/authentication.

2. Repurpose the 'Force password' change button to send a link that requires students to set a password, like a first-time password link that also shows them their username.
▪ In the email, include that they have been added to the new institution.
▪ If possible, prevent the sending of a second email when adding the user to to a new institution. Otherwise, the users will receive 2 emails (password reset and new institution subscription).

3. Repurpose the 'Email people about their account' switch to send the details off to the students.
▪ Currently, this switch is only applicable for new accounts.

4. If the old user institution uses ‘remoteuser’ (i.e. LTI does) and new
institution does not (i.e. manual), remove the ‘remoteuser’ record.


5. If the user is in more than one institution, remove them from both institutions and move them to the new institution.


6.  All other functionality on the page will remain the same.
