In case the modifications are to be made within the frame of the listed criteria, editing can be done as follows: 1. Go to the **Batch User Create** tab of the **User Manager** module. 2. Download the **template of the targeted group** by choosing it from the drop-down list. 3. Carry out the modifications in the downloaded Excel file. 4. Save the file to a directory that will be available when uploading. 5. At **Step 2** of the BUC process, upload the modified Excel file. :::warning If any modification is invalid, the system will indicate it at **Step 3** and not proceed until it is corrected. ::: 6\. Conclude the modifications by clicking **Done** at **Step 4** of the process. ![](https://outline-production-attachments.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com/uploads/6c0da235-ff99-49fd-81af-d32f613692dd/6e8d31a6-4c70-4bbd-9f39-a0eeeef52e12/140247060.gif?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Content-Sha256=UNSIGNED-PAYLOAD&X-Amz-Credential=AKIA4EOUDTOVUICLPZ4P%2F20260909%2Fus-east-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20260909T120000Z&X-Amz-Expires=86400&X-Amz-Signature=b41bb514c0e36f492da89d3e5a7d54d9243a045c5cd8751d445583620222bac8&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&x-amz-checksum-mode=ENABLED&x-id=GetObject) ## Numeral codes used in the BUC file * **Inactive (column A):** * 0 (or cell left empty) - active * 1 - inactive * **Privileges (column J):** * 4 - SP * 8 - learner * **Race (column N):** * 1 - white * 2 - black * 3 - Hispanic * 4 - Asian * 5 - other * **Sex (column O):** * 1 - male * 2 - female * **Children (column P):** * 1 - no child * 2 - biological * 3 - adopted * 4 - foster :::tip For further information, visit our [User Manager](/doc/user-manager-jY5BSEdZwv) pages. ::: --- **Documents** - [User Guide](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/user-guide-WPv4VxhtWB) - [FAQ](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/faq-YoxOQOjvnY) - [Training Videos](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/training-videos-D2ycsEwqPt) - [Module Introduction Videos](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/module-introduction-videos-I6OQ6H7SUT) - [Release Notes](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/release-notes-BcFFMsc0RV) - [Distance Learning with LearningSpace](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/distance-learning-with-learningspace-eAfwW23Hxg) - [Preventing Copy-Paste in LearningSpace](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/preventing-copy-paste-in-learningspace-sPD0IIUuk0) - [Important Technical Notification Regarding Adobe Flash Player](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/important-technical-notification-regarding-adobe-flash-player-eQtMLwLmTJ) - [iPad support - Technical information](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/ipad-support-technical-information-dLmeFvKofC) - [TeamViewer Link](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/teamviewer-link-QyKZBMqUT9) - [YouTube videos about LearningSpace](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/youtube-videos-about-learningspace-TMb3zdc0LC) - [Customer Aftercare One-Pager](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/customer-aftercare-one-pager-GBWMe1BcfS) - [Case Studies](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/case-studies-VcAbFqXSz7)
